About Freud Industrial Blades Freud’s industrial series blades were designed for the serious woodworker. Available in a variety of styles for different applications, LU blades feature thick carbide tips, precision-tensioned bodies found in every Freud quality blade. Some LU blades include a red Teflon coating that helps reduce friction, heat build-up, and gumming -- which prolongs the life of the blade. About this General Purpose Saw Blade Freud's patent-pending Premier Fusion saw blade is the solution to almost any woodworker's problems. Exclusive expansion slots are combined with a special double-side grind, and a Hi-ATB permits this laser-cut blade to do it all. Freud's TiCo H-Density carbide and Perma-shield coating is icing on the cake, keeping the blade strong, straight, and cutting smoothly as it resists heat damage.

|  |  | Side-grind, Hi-ATB Teeth for Exceptional Versatility This Premiere Fusion blade makes big projects more efficient by allowing you to move from start to finish without changing blades or sacrificing precision. The blade's configuration fuses 30-degree, Hi-ATB teeth with Freud's double-side-grind tooth geometry. Whether you're working with hard- or softwood, this design provides a smooth side finish while crosscutting and while ripping. It also delivers flawless, chip-free finishes on the top side and the bottom side, when working with hard-to-handle materials like double-sided laminate, veneered plywood, or melamine.This high-tech Fusion blade's ideal working range when ripping includes materials that range from 3/8 to 1-1/2 inches thick. When crosscutting, its ideal range includes materials that are 3/4 to 3-1/2 inches thick. It has a 5/8-inch arbor and produces a 0.126 kerf. Unique Polymer Filler for Superior, Anti-Vibration Design Like all Freud blades, this Fusion blade is precision balanced and pretensioned for truer cuts under heavy loads. However, its unique design takes Freud's standard laser-cut, anti-vibration slots to the next level. Paired with a specially formulated polymer filler, these slots reduce side-to-side movement for cleaner finishes, 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. High-Density Carbide for Maximum Cutting Performance This Fusion blade's 40 teeth are finished with tips made from Freud's application-specific TiCo high-density carbide. The TiCo blend used in Fusion Series blades offers a mix of density, hardness, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and impact resistance that's ideally matched to the varied demands placed on a multi-use blade. With teeth that start out sharper and deliver improved edge retention, the blade can go longer between sharpenings,s 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.
