Product Description
The Freud Difference
Freud manufactures some of the most innovative, technologically advanced saw blades in the world. To ensure that the highest quality products meet the toughest design standards, Freud owns and operates six manufacturing facilities in Western Europe. Freud is one of the few manufacturers of woodworking tools in the world that produces its own MicroGrain carbide with titanium, called TiCo -- a combination of titanium and cobalt. Freud develops different types of carbide for each application to maximize the cutting life and performance of the tool; and Freud also operates one of the most modern product development research centers in Europe. By overseeing the entire manufacturing process from start to finish, Freud guarantees some of the highest quality, most advanced products in the industry.
About Freud Industrial Blades
Freuds 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 Combination Saw Blade
The ultimate combination blade is now available in a thin kerf design with Freud's LU83R. The groups of five teeth include one flat tooth for ripping, followed by four alternate top bevel teeth for crosscutting and a large gullet for effective chip clearance. This blade also features Laser-cut anti-vibration slots, practically eliminating the vibration that resonates in standard blades. With this combination blade, there is no need for stabilizers.
Applications
This exceptional blade rips and crosscuts wood, chip board, plywood, and laminate -- but it is not recommended for ferrous metals or masonry.
Warranty
This blade is covered by Freud's limited lifetime warranty.
Product Description
This heavy-duty combination blade is produced with extreme precision user lasers to cut the hardened blade bodies and tensioning machines ensure the blades stay true and flat under load. Great for underpowered saws that need full kerf stability. Laser-cut blade bodies, anti-vibration and expansion slots keep the blade running straight and true. Perma-SHIELD permanent non-stick coating prevents heat build-up, gumming and corrosion for long life.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I have a Bosch 4000 Contractor's table saw. I replaced the factory blade with the Freud thin kerf as an upgrade i suspected would make a difference with an "underpowered saw." I was right. I've cut 3/4 oak and you cannot hear the motor change pitch. I suspect that the thin kerf helps. Cuts are ready for glue up. I used a couple of the Frued stablizer disks for good measure. That much inertia has got to be good for something, right? The rip blade is just as good. There might be better blades, but this one is good enough for me.
