    Default tail blade length

    Is the lenght of the blade measured from the tip to the hole for the screw in the holder or is it from tip to root?
    I am trying to order replacement blades for my trex 600N, it has KBDD orange blades on at the moment which have a few chips out of them. measuring them they are 96mm from tip to hole and 104mm from tip to root and the root is 5mm thick. if anyone could advise please,thanks

    Hi,

    Normally all blades are measured from the blade tip to the bolt hole but there have been a few exemptions to this over the years.

    On a 50 or 600 class machine you need to be looking around the 92mm/95mm/96mm Tails. On a Trex 600N it would require 95mm/96mm Tails.

    Hope this helps!
    Thanks!
