Grit or tooth count is important because it impacts the speed, smoothness, and finish of your work. Higher tooth counts (TPI) on blades, like the 20 TPI on the StarlockMax 1-1/4" Bi-Metal Curved Plunge Cut Blade Makita E-08523, provide finer, more precise cuts, while lower counts are better for fast, rough cuts. Similarly, sanding pads with different grit levels allow you to choose between aggressive material removal and fine finishing. This range enables you to select the right accessory for either speed or detail, depending on your project needs.
