Application: Cutting Thin Aluminum And Other Non-Ferrous MetalsThe 12-inch Freud LU90M012 Thin Stock Non-Ferrous Metal Cutting Saw Blade delivers smooth, burr-free finish when cutting thin aluminum and other non-ferrous metals.

Built to make quick, exact work of trimming and reshaping thin-wall materials crafted from aluminum, copper, or other non-ferrous metals, this blade features a large proportion of small teeth finished with a triple-chip grind. In this configuration, each flat-top tooth is followed by a trapezoidal tooth that's slightly higher. The trapezoidal tooth delivers a precut slot that's narrower than the final kerf, so the flat-top teeth can leave a finish that's clean and true. Each tooth also features a positive 5-degree hook angle, which enables the blade to move efficiently and without binding.
Also offering custom designed gullets that minimize chip buildup, this blade is designed for optimal performance when cutting metal walls that are less than 1/16-inch thick. It has a 1-inch arbor and produces a 0.118 kerf.
Freud recommends that you use a liquid lubricant, like WD40, when cutting metals with this blade.
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 thin-stock saw blade's 120 teeth are finished with tips made from Freud's application-specific TiCo high-density carbide "non-ferrous blend." Formulated to extend tooth life in the face of demanding metalwork applications, this blend is extra impact-resistant--due to including more cobalt than other TiCo blends--and it still offers the mix of improved strength, density, corrosion resistance, and heat 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--once again, saving you time and money.
Silver I.C.E. Coating Resists Corrosion and Heat Buildup
This blade is finished with Freud's Silver I.C.E. coating, which resists corrosion for improved performance over time. This unique coating also resists heat buildup, protecting your saw and your work surface and preventing the blade from warping. Its non-stick surface also helps prevent unwanted buildups. All this translates to less drag on the motor of your saw, which means longer tool life and longer blade life.
This industrial saw blade is backed by Freud's limited lifetime warranty.

Customer Review: The best
Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned many metal cutting saw blades over the years, but this is the best. Best price and best performance. Cutting aluminum (we do that a lot) is like cutting through butter with a hot knife; so smooth and even quiet, it will surprise you. Highly recommend.
