----
The 10-inch Freud LU84R011 Combination Saw Blade with
Perma-SHIELD offers a configuration that pairs flat teeth and
alternating-top-bevel teeth to ensure strong performance both
when ripping and when crosscutting. Also offering TiCo
high-density carbide tips, laser-cut, anti-vibration slots that
eliminate the need for stabilizers, and Freud's Perma-SHIELD
coating to prevent the buildup of friction and heat, this
multi-purpose blade is built for lasting convenience.
Combination Tooth Design for Versatility and Accuracy
This blade's 50 teeth are arranged in groups of five, each of
which includes one flat-top raker tooth for fast, accurate
ripping. Each flat tooth is followed by four
alternating-top-bevel (ATB) teeth that are particularly well
suited to crosscutting, and large gullets between the teeth
ensure effective chip clearance.This blade is designed for
optimal performance when crosscutting materials that are 3/4 to
3-1/2 inches thick or ripping materials that are 3/8 to 1-1/2
inches thick. It makes quick work of hard- and softwood, plywood,
and chipboard. It can also handle laminates or tackle thinner or
thicker materials. However, some loss of surface finish may occur
when it is used outside its ideal range. It has a 5/8-inch arbor
and produces a .126 kerf.
Well-Balanced, Anti-Vibration Design
This Freud blade is precision balanced and pretensioned for truer
cuts under heavy loads. It also features laser-cut,
anti-vibration slots that reduce chatter for a cleaner finish,
longer blade life, and reduced noise while you work. And because
the entire blade is laser cut from high-strength steel, you can
trust that it will stay stable, flat, and true, even after
prolonged use. Furthermore, this well-balanced, anti-vibration
design means there's no need to use add-on stabilizers with this
blade.
High-Density Carbide for Maximum Cutting Performance
This combination saw blade's 50 teeth are finished with tips made
from Freud's application- specific TiCo high-density carbide
"combination blend." Formulated to help the blade maintain a
sharp cutting edge for longer when faced with a variety of
applications, this blend includes just a little bit more
high-density tungsten carbide than other TiCo blends. And it
still offers the full mix of improved corrosion resistance, heat
resistance, and impact resistance that you expect from TiCo.
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
Built to withstand tough use in less-than-ideal conditions, this
blade is finished with Freud's red Perma-SHIELD--a non-stick
coating that reduces friction and nearly eliminates the heat
buildup that excess friction can cause. By providing complete
thermal insulation, this coating protects your tools and your
work surface. And it resists binding when the blade is used for
large-volume cutting applications, which reduces blade warp.
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.
