Freud 10" x 40T Thin Kerf General Purpose Blade (LU86R010) This heavy-duty thin kerf blade is good for crosscutting thick hardwoods and softwoods and thinner stock materials. The ideal working range is from 3/4" to 3-1/2" thick for crosscutting, and 1/4" to 1" thick for ripping. Thinner or thicker material may be cut, but some loss of surface finish may occur. 10" Blade Diameter, 5/8" Arbor, 40 ATB Teeth, ATB Grind, .094" Kerf (K), 13° Hook Angle,.071" Plate Ideal For: For Heavy-Duty General Purpose Applications. Crosscuts (3/4" to 3-1/2") & Rips (1/4" to 1" ). Application: General Purpose. Made In Italy. 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 Ti - Co 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 Ti - Co 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
