Freud LU87R010: 10" Thin Kerf Rip Blade
Description
10″ x 24T Thin Kerf Rip Blade The 10-inch Freud
LU87R010 Thin Kerf Rip Saw Blade makes quick work of ripping operations in
hard- and softwood. It features 24 flat, oversized teeth with thick TiCo high-
density carbide tips designed to last, in addition to Freud’s Perma-SHIELD
coating, which reduces friction to prevent heat buildup. Plus, since it’s a
thin-kerf blade, it wastes less material and continues to cut cleanly when
used with underpowered saws.Large-Tooth, Thin-Kerf Blade Ideal for Low-
Horsepower Saws This rip saw blade is ideally suited to ripping hard- and
softwoods, and it also delivers strong results when crosscutting wood or
working with plywood. Ideal for working with materials that are 3/4 to 2-3/4
inches thick, the blade can also handle thinner or thicker materials, and it
can be used to cut chipboard or laminates. 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.In addition to offering faster cuts through
tough materials, its large tooth design allows the blade to be safely
sharpened more times, prolonging the life of the blade and saving you money.
Plus the large gullets between these teeth ensure easy chip removal.Well-
Balanced, Anti-Vibration Design This Freud blade is pretensioned for truer
cuts under heavy loads. It also features an anti-vibration design that reduces
chatter for a cleaner finish, longer blade life, and reduced noise while you
work. And because the 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-kerf rip saw blade’s
24 teeth are finished with tips made from an application-specific TiCo high-
density carbide “ripping blend” that offers improved density, hardness,
corrosion resistance, and heat resistance.Ideal for the demands of ripping
large quantities of thick, hard wood, this carbide blend includes extra cobalt
for increased impact resistance. Plus, it delivers increased sharpness and
edge retention, which means the blade will hold up longer–saving you
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.About
