-Premium TiCo HI-Density Carbide Combination Blend for Maximum Performance
-Large Gullets in front of flat top rakers allow for fast ripping and easy chip removal
-Laser-Cut Anti-Vibration Slots drastically reduce vibration and sideways movement in the cut extending blade life and giving a crisp, splinter-free flawless finish
-Silver Ice Coating resists corrosion and pitch build-up
Product Description In many woodworking shops, one saw must serve multiple purposes. It must rip a piece of 4/4 oak and also crosscut a sheet of 3/4" plywood. 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 clearance. This blade also features laser cut anti-vibration slots, practically eliminating the vibration that resonates in standard blades. With this ultimate combination blade, there is no need for stabilizers. 8" Blade Diameter, 5/8" Arbor, 40 COMB Teeth, COMB Grind, .126" Kerf (K), 10° Hook Angle, .087" Plate (P) Ideal For: Crosscuts (3/4" to 3-1/2") & Rips (3/8" to 1-1/2"). Application: Combination Blade. Made In Italy. Amazon.com The 8-inch Freud LU84R008 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. LU84R008 Combination Saw Blade with Perma-SHIELD At a Glance: Ideal for crosscutting materials 3/4 to 3-1/2 inches thick, and ripping materials 3/8 to 1-1/2 inches thick Heavy-duty plate with laser-cut, anti-vibration slots Tough Perma-SHIELD coating reduces friction and heat buildup Technical Specs: Coating Perma-SHIELD Diameter 8" Teeth 40 COMB Arbor 5/8" Kerf (K) .126 Plate (P) .087 Large Gullets allow for fast ripping and easy chip removal Laser-Cut Anti-Vibration Slots drastically reduce vibration and sideways movement in the cut extending blade life, and giving a crisp, swirl-free flawless finish Combination Tooth Design for Versatility and Accuracy This blade's 40 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 0.126 kerf. Well-Balanced, Anti-Vibration DesignThis 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 PerformanceThis combination saw blade's 40 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 Redu
