Makita E-24854 16-5/16″ 35T Carbide-Tipped Max Efficiency Circular Saw Blade

The Makita E-24854 16-5/16″ 35T Carbide-Tipped Max Efficiency Circular Saw Blade is designed for high-output cutting on both cordless and corded 16″ Makita circular saws, including the 40V max XGT® HS013GZ and the 5402NA. This blade is engineered for fast, smooth cutting in beams, timbers, and general framing materials, making it suitable for structural work and jobsite production. The Max Efficiency design uses an ultra-thin kerf, high-grade Tungsten carbide tips, and an ATAFR (Alternate Top Alternate Face with Raker) tooth pattern that lowers cutting resistance while increasing speed. These characteristics help reduce load on the saw while delivering more cuts per charge on cordless models.

With a sharp 23° top bevel angle, reduced swing width, and specially shaped tooth bottoms, this blade supports precise cutting and smoother material removal. The blade coating helps limit pitch buildup for more predictable performance across long shifts. Whether used in carpentry, timber framing, or demolition tasks requiring clean and efficient passes, the E-24854 provides a balanced combination of speed, accuracy, and durability. It is also the standard-equipment blade supplied with the HS013GZ, making it a dependable choice for crews looking for a large-diameter blade that handles thick wood in a single pass.

Markets

• General Construction Suitable for fast cutting of framing lumber, beams, and sheet goods.
• Carpentry and Framing Supports accurate cuts on structural materials required for framing tasks.
• Demolition Work Handles removal of timber and framing components with efficient cutting action.
• Timber Frame Construction Cuts large wood sections in a single pass for production-level work.
• Municipal and Facility Maintenance Useful for structural repairs requiring clean cuts in heavy lumber.
• Trade Schools and Construction Training Programs Demonstrates efficient cutting using modern circular saw technology.

Construction crews and timber framers benefit from the speed and efficiency this blade provides on both cordless and corded saws. The ultra-thin kerf and ATAFR tooth pattern help the tool maintain momentum, which results in smoother cutting action and reduced strain on the saw. This is particularly valuable for cordless models, where lower resistance means more cuts per charge and fewer interruptions during framing or beam adjustments. The blade’s design supports consistent performance on thick wood stock, reducing the need for secondary cleanup passes.

For demolition, renovation, and facility maintenance teams, the blade offers predictable behavior even when working through dense material at varied angles. Training programs also rely on this blade to demonstrate how tooth geometry and kerf width affect cutting efficiency. Its durability, clean cutting characteristics, and compatibility with Makita’s large-diameter circular saws make it a practical choice for crews who need fast output without sacrificing accuracy.
