About Freud Industrial Blades
Freud’s 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 10-Inch 30-Tooth TCG Glue Line Ripping Saw Blade
Freud's LM74R blade has specially designed triple chip grind (TCG) teeth to produce extremely smooth glue line rips in hard and soft woods from 1/8 to 1 inch thick. This blade's Laser-cut anti-vibration slots drastically reduce vibration and sideways movement while extending blade life, and its thick MicroGrain carbide tips allow for more cuts between sharpening. The non-stick Perma-Shield coating reduces gumming, rusting, and corrosion for longer life with less wear.

Applications
