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 Thin Kerf Crosscutting Saw Blade
This blade gives new life to underpowered saws and produces smooth crosscuts in hardwoods, softwoods and moldings. Coated blades pull 1/3 less on the saw, which translates into 33-percent more cutting power. This thin kerf blade removes less material than standard carbide blades, thus requiring less horsepower to produce equally good results. The "fusion" tooth design gives glass smooth side finishes as well as a chip-free top and bottom during both ripping and crosscutting applications. Perma-Shield permanent non-stick coating reduces friction, protecting this thin kerf saw blade against corrosion, gumming and pitch build-up. With laser-cut construction made from high-strength steel, this blade is built for long life and precision. Pre-tensioning assures that the blade will remain flat through the shocks from cutting and stresses from turning at high speeds, and its anti-vibration reed design eliminates all vibration and produces the cleanest cuts possible, making the use of a stabilizer unnecessary.
Applications
This exceptional blade rips and crosscuts wood, chip board, plywood, and laminate -- but it is not recommended for ferrous metals or masonry. This blade is ideal for crosscutting with a fine finish, while using an underpowered saw.
Warranty
This blade is covered by Freud's limited lifetime warranty.

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
This is the first Teflon Coated blade I purchsed, and not the last. It offers a great cut in my Delta Contractor saw. It compares to blades costing twice as much. Highly recomended if you're using a smaller HP saw. O-clearance inserts help too.
