36-Tooth Carbide Blade 230 mm + 3-Tooth Blade 255 mm Set

A two-blade set: a 230 mm 36-tooth carbide-tipped blade for brush, brambles and young wood, plus a 255 mm 3-tooth steel blade for tall grass.

In short:This YIK TUNG set contains a 9-inch (230 mm) 36-tooth blade with tungsten-carbide tips for brush, brambles and young wood, and a 10-inch (255 mm) 3-tooth steel blade for tall grass. Adapter kits for 25.4 mm and 20 mm arbors are included. Carbide tips stay sharp much longer than plain steel but can chip on stones. Check your brush cutter is rated for a metal blade of that diameter and use the matching guard.

What’s in the set

The Amazon.co.uk listing (whose title, oddly, reads “Cordless Pressure Washer”) describes a two-blade set from YIK TUNG: a 9-inch (230 mm) 36-tooth blade of reinforced manganese steel with tungsten-carbide tips, for brush, blackberry runners and young wood, and a 10-inch (255 mm) 3-tooth steel blade for tall grass. Adapter kits for 25.4 mm (1 inch) and 20 mm arbors are included. When we checked in October 2026, it couldn’t be dispatched to our location.

Carbide vs plain steel

Carbide tips hold an edge much longer than plain steel, so a 36-tooth blade cuts cleanly through stems and young wood for longer between sharpenings. The catch is that carbide is brittle: a stone, a fence post or a piece of wire can chip a tip, where steel would just dull. Sharpening carbide needs a diamond file or a saw-sharpening service — see how to sharpen a brush cutter blade.

Fitting and safety

Only fit a metal blade to a brush cutter rated for it, with a bike handle or a barrier bar, a harness, and the blade guard specified in its manual. Match the arbor (bore) size with the right adapter, fit the thrust washer and tighten the nut — usually left-hand thread, as explained in how to fit a brush cutter blade. Toothed blades kick back if they hit wood in the 12-to-2 o’clock zone, so cut on the left-hand side of the blade (see blade kickback explained). Wear a visor, cut-resistant boots and gloves.
