Freud LU79R010 10 Thin Kerf Plywood & Melamine Blade

10-Inch Freud LU79R010 Thin Kerf Ultimate Plywood and Melamine Saw Blade: A Versatile and Durable Solution

The Freud LU79R010 Thin Kerf Ultimate Plywood and Melamine Saw Blade is a heavy-duty, 10-inch blade designed to deliver a precise, chip-free finish when cutting through a variety of materials, including veneered plywood, melamine countertops, and hardwood molding. Featuring 80 teeth with Freud's TiCo high-density carbide tips and Perma-SHIELD coating, this durable thin-kerf blade is built to maintain accuracy and performance over the long haul.

Versatile and Precise Cutting This thin-kerf blade's 80-tooth, high-alternating-top-bevel (Hi-ATB) configuration ensures clean crosscuts and splinter-free finishes, even when working with challenging materials like laminates. The blade is designed for optimal performance when cutting materials that are 1/4 to 1-5/8 inches thick, including hardwood, softwood, chipboard, plywood, laminates, and melamine.

Well-Balanced, Anti-Vibration Design Precision balanced and pretensioned, the Freud blade features laser-cut, anti-vibration slots that reduce chatter for a cleaner finish, longer blade life, and reduced noise while you work. The entire blade is laser-cut from high-strength steel, ensuring it stays stable, flat, and true, even after prolonged use.

High-Density Carbide for Maximum Cutting Performance The blade's 80 teeth are tipped with Freud's application-specific TiCo high-density carbide "crosscut blend," formulated to maintain a sharp cutting edge in demanding crosscut applications. This blend is extra hard, thanks to its higher concentration of high-density tungsten carbide, and it also offers improved corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and impact resistance.

Perma-SHIELD Coating Reduces Friction and Heat Buildup The Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating on this blade reduces friction and nearly eliminates the heat buildup that can cause excess friction. This coating protects your tools and work surface, resists binding during large-volume cutting applications, and helps prevent debris collection and resin or "pitch" buildup, which can increase drag on your saw's motor.

In summary, the Freud LU79R010 Thin Kerf Ultimate Plywood and Melamine Saw Blade is a versatile, durable, and high-performing solution for a wide range of cutting tasks, from veneered plywood to hardwood molding. Its innovative design and advanced features make it an excellent choice for professional and DIY woodworkers alike.
