LU74R012 Thin Kerf Ultimate Cut-Off Saw Blade At a Glance: Ideal for smooth crosscuts in materials that are 1/4 to 1-5/8 inches thick Heavy-duty plate with laser-cut, anti-vibration slots Tough Perma-Shield coating reduces friction and heat buildup Technical Specs: CoatingPerma-SHIELDDiameter12"Teeth96 ATBArbor1"Kerf (K).091Plate (P).071 Depth of Cut Unique Side Grind polishes the material to produce a superior finish Thin Kerf allows for easier feeding and reduced waste Alternating-Top-Bevel Teeth Combine with Unique Side-Grind for Smooth Finishes This blade is designed for optimal performance when cutting materials that are 1/4 to 1-5/8 inches thick, including hard- and softwood, chipboard, and plywood. The blade can also handle ripping and working with laminate, and it can tackle thinner or thicker materials. However, some loss of surface finish may occur when it is used outside its ideal range. It has a 1-inch arbor and produces a 0.091 kerf. Well-Balanced, Anti-Vibration Design High-Density Carbide for Maximum Cutting Performance With teeth that start out sharper and deliver improved edge retention, the blade can go longer between sharpening, and will hold up longer--saving you time and money. Perma-SHIELD Coating Reduces Friction and Heat Buildup As a lubricating feature, Perma-SHIELD allows the blade to spin freely while reducing stress on the motor and carriage of your saw. In addition, this coating helps prevent debris collection and resin or "pitch" buildup. Since gummy pitch buildup causes extra drag on the motor of your saw, less buildup is another little convenience that translates into longer tool life and longer blade life. It also means less downtime for blade cleaning, so you get jobs done faster. This industrial saw blade is backed by Freud's limited lifetime warranty.
