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 the TCG Laminate Cutting Saw Blade
This 10-inch, 80-tooth thin kerf laminate blade from Freud gives you ultra long life and excellent finish on both the top and bottom of laminates, melamines, and plywoods. This blade is specially formulated with thick, MicroGrain carbide teeth -- so it's great for underpowered benchtop saws or contractor saws that need full kerf stability. The triple Chip Grind-Tooth design has a negative hook angle for superior life in abrasive manmade materials, and the Perma-Shield permanent non-stick coating prevents heat build-up, gumming, and corrosion for long life. This blade's laser-cut body has anti-vibration and expansion slots to keep it running straight and true.

Applications
he LU96R is a thin kerf blade that is designed to give long life and excellent finish on the top and bottom of laminates, melamine and veneered plywood -- with no scoring blades needed.

Warranty
This blade is covered by Freud's limited lifetime warranty.
Customer Review: Like a hot knife through butter
This blade cut through both melamine and MDF that I attached laminate to with ease, and left a very clean edge on both sides of the material. Tear-out was virtually non-existent. I generally buy only Freud blades because of their superior quality, and this blade is no exception.
Customer Review: Sharp saw blade for molding
This blade cut through with little or no tear-out on the back side of the wood. It was the perfect choice for use on crown molding, as it left such a clean cut when done.
