Freud LU96R010: 10 x 80T Thin Kerf Double Sided Laminate/Melamine Blade

The Freud LU96R010 Thin Kerf Double Sided Laminate Cutting Saw Blade is a 10-inch blade designed specifically for making quick, smooth, and chip-free cuts in laminates, melamine, and veneered plywood. Featuring Freud's Perma-SHIELD coating and a triple-chip tooth grind, this blade is made with long-lasting TiCo high-density carbide and has laser-cut, anti-vibration slots for added stability.

This blade is ideal for cutting laminate or melamine ranging from 1/4 to 1-5/8 inches in thickness, and it performs well when crosscutting wood, working with plywood, or rip sawing various materials. It has a 5/8-inch arbor and produces a thin 0.091-inch kerf, requiring less power than standard blades while allowing faster feed rates. The well-balanced, anti-vibration design of the blade ensures truer cuts under heavy loads and reduces noise and chatter for a cleaner finish.

The high-density carbide tips on the 80 teeth of this blade are formulated for maximum cutting performance, offering improved edge retention and longer blade life. The Perma-SHIELD coating reduces friction, heat buildup, and blade warp, providing thermal insulation and lubrication to extend the life of your tools and enhance cutting performance.

Freud, a leader in innovative manufacturing for over 50 years, produces their own TiCo high-density carbide to maximize the cutting life and performance of their tools. The Freud LU96R010 Thin Kerf Double Sided Laminate Cutting Saw Blade comes with a limited lifetime warranty and is designed for professionals looking for a quality cutting solution.

Included in the box is the 10-inch diameter, 80-tooth blade with a 5/8-inch arbor and a thin kerf design for efficient cutting. The Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth design and negative hook angle ensure long life in production applications, while the Perma-Shield Non-Stick Coating reduces blade drag, protects against corrosion, and minimizes pitch buildup for a smoother cutting experience.
