The 10-inch LU86R010 Thin Kerf General-Purpose Saw Blade is a versatile blade that’s equally suited to ripping and crosscutting. It pairs a heavy-duty body with 40 teeth featuring TiCo high-density carbide tips, and it is coated with Freud’s Perma-SHIELD. Plus, since it’s a thin-kerf blade, it wastes less material and continues to cut cleanly when used with underpowered saws.
Alternate-Top-Bevel Tooth Design for Speed and Versatility
This blade’s alternating-top-bevel (ATB) configuration features teeth that face both left and right, and it delivers a positive hook angle–a setup that makes feeding smooth and easy. Ideal for crosscutting thick hard- and softwoods as well as slicing through thinner sheets of plywood, chipboard, and laminate, this blade brings both versatility and durability to the job site.
It’s designed for optimal performance when crosscutting materials that are 3/4 to 3-1/2 inches thick or ripping materials that are 1/4 to 1-inch thick. The blade can also handle working with chipboard, plywood, or laminate, and it can 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 0.094 kerf.
Well-Balanced, Anti-Vibration Design
This 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.
High-Density Carbide for Maximum Cutting Performance
This general-purpose saw blade’s 40 teeth are finished with tips made from Freud’s application-specific TiCo high-density carbide “general purpose blend.” This blend offers a mix of improved density, hardness, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and impact resistance that’s ideally matched to the varied demands placed on a general-purpose blade.
With teeth that start out sharper and deliver improved edge retention, the blade can go longer between sharpening, and will hold up longer–once again, 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.
