Description
Overview:
The Pivoting Blade Guard for Bosch GKS 85 circular hand saws is a genuine Bosch safety component that shields the lower portion of the saw blade before, during, and after a cut. Built from hard‐wearing materials with a smooth pivot mechanism, it helps reduce accidental contact and deflects chips away from the user. This OEM guard is engineered specifically for the Bosch GKS 85 to maintain correct clearances, reliable retraction, and consistent performance under site or workshop use. Supplied under Manufacturer Part Number 1600A00XZ2, it replaces a damaged, worn, or sticking guard to restore safe operation. Suitable for professional carpenters, builders, and DIY users, it fits using the saw's original mounting points and preserves the intended handling and line of sight of the tool.
Key Features:
- Genuine Bosch part for precise fit and reliable performance
- Durable construction for impact and wear resistance in demanding conditions
- Smooth pivoting action helps the guard open during the cut and re‐cover the blade on exit
- Designed for the Bosch GKS 85 to maintain correct geometry and safety function
- Uses the saw's existing mounting points for a straightforward replacement
- Helps minimise exposure to the rotating blade and airborne debris
- Consistent return action for predictable operation and user confidence
- Suitable for regular maintenance to keep saw safety systems working as intended
Typical Applications:
Direct replacement when the original lower guard is bent, cracked, sticking, or missing. Appropriate for site carpentry, first and second fix work, timber framing, cutting sheet goods, and general construction tasks. Supports safe operation for tradespeople and DIY users by restoring the saw's primary blade shielding system on the Bosch GKS 85.
Also known as:
Lower blade guard, pivot guard, blade cover, saw safety shield, retractable guard, lower shroud, blade protector, guard assembly for circular saws.
