Freud LU74R012: 12" Thin Kerf Ultimate High Production Cut-Off Saw Blade

Freud’s Ultimate High Production Cut-Off blades features a high tooth count, alternate face shear technology and a 25-degree High Alternate Top Bevel (Hi-ATB) tooth geometry to decrease cutting pressure for less blowout and superior finishes in extremely high-speed cutting applications. Freud-made TiCo Hi-Density Carbide coupled with Freud’s Silver I.C.E. (Industrial Cooling Element) coating gives these blades the longest run time of any optimizing blade on the market. This range features unique laser-cut anti-vibration slots, which practically eliminate the vibration that resonates in standard blades producing a ready to profile material edge. Freud’s Ultimate High Production Cut-Off blades are precisely the best when it comes to more production capabilities, higher cut quality, and less down time making these the highest value for today’s production environment.

• Specs: Arbor 1", Diameter 12", Grind ATB, Hook Angle 0°, Kerf .091", Plate .071", Teeth 96
• Freud’s exclusive blend of TiCo Hi-Density Carbide is specifically designed for each cutting application to maximize cutting life and material finish
• Freud’s own Silver I.C.E. Coating reduces heat, build up, and eliminates rust and corrosion to maximize the life of the blade
• Hi-Alternate Top Bevel (Hi-ATB) tooth geometry with Axial Shear Face side grind polishes the material to produce a superior finish in high-speed applications
• Thin kerf blades remove less material than standard carbide blades, thus requiring less horsepower to produce equally good results
• Laser-cut blade body with anti-vibration technology add superior stability, a precise quality of cut while reducing machine vibration and maximizing the life of the blade in upcut saws and large production manufacturing
• Tri-Metal Brazing gives the tooth superior bond strength and protects the carbide tooth by giving it increased flexibility and impact resistance
• Freud’s Hi-Tolerance Precision Plate Grinding & Tensioning features a laser cut blade body from 48 Rockwell steel plate (the world’s highest quality steel) that remains flat and true, over the lifetime of the blade for ultimate accuracy
• Resharpenable at any Freud Authorized Service Center
