## Description

Product Description Freud's LU79 Thin Kerf line of saw blades is engineered to deliver flawless, chip-free cuts in veneered plywood, fine moldings, melamine, laminates, and crosscuts in solid wood. Featuring a high-precision Hi-ATB (High Alternate Top Bevel) tooth design and laser-cut anti-vibration slots, this blade produces exceptionally smooth finishes, eliminating the need for a stabilizer or scoring blade. Its Premium TiCo Hi-Density Carbide Crosscutting Blend ensures long-lasting sharpness, superior edge retention, and maximum cutting performance. Anti-vibration slots minimize blade movement and reduce noise, extending the blade’s life while maintaining a crisp, splinter-free edge. Finished with a Perma-Shield Non-Stick Coating, the LU79 blade resists pitch build-up, reduces drag, and protects against corrosion for cleaner, more efficient cuts every time. desertcart.com The 10-inch Freud LU79R010 Thin Kerf Ultimate Plywood and Melamine Saw Blade is a heavy-duty blade that delivers a precise, chip-free finish when cutting through everything from veneered plywood to melamine countertops and hardwood molding. Featuring 80 teeth with TiCo high-density carbide tips and Freud's Perma-SHIELD coating, which helps reduce heat buildup and friction, this durable thin-kerf blade is built to stay true, delivering accurate cuts over the long haul.LU79R010 Thin Kerf Ultimate Plywood and Melamine Saw BladeAt a Glance:Ideal for melamine, laminates, plywood, and crosscutting hardwood; handles materials 1/4 to 1-5/8 inches thickHeavy-duty plate with laser-cut, anti-vibration slotsTough Perma-SHIELD coating reduces friction and heat buildupTechnical Specs:CoatingPerma-SHIELDDiameter10"Teeth80 Hi-ATBArbor5/8"Kerf (K).098Plate (P).071Wall ThicknessThin Kerf allows for faster feed rate and reduced wasteFreud-Made TiCo Carbide specifically designed to cut nonferrous metals extends tooth lifeHi-ATB Teeth offer Versatility and Clean FinishesThis thin-kerf blade's 80-tooth, high-alternating-top-bevel ( Hi-ATB) configuration features a large number of small teeth that face both left and right--a setup that ensures clean crosscuts and splinter-free finishes, even when working with hard-to-handle materials like laminates. This setup paired with Freud's anti-vibration technology results in cuts so smooth that they eliminate the need for a stabilizer or a scoring blade.This blade is designed for optimal performance when cutting materials that are 1/4 to 1-5/8 inches thick, including hard- and softwood, chipboard, plywood, laminates, and melamine. The blade can also handle ripping wood, and it can tackle thinner or thicker materials. 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 0.098 kerf.Well-Balanced, Anti-Vibration DesignThis Freud blade is precision balanced and pretensioned for truer cuts under heavy loads. It also features laser-cut, anti-vibration slots that reduce chatter for a cleaner finish, longer blade life, and reduced noise while you work--a feature that's especially important when working with plywood or laminates. And because the entire 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 PerformanceThis thin-kerf saw blade's 80 teeth are finished with tips made from Freud's application-specific TiCo high-density carbide "crosscut blend." Formulated to help the blade maintain a sharp cutting edge in the face of demanding crosscut applications, this blend is extra hard--due to including more high-density tungsten carbide than other TiCo blends--and it still offers the full mix of improved corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and impact resistance that you expect from TiCo.With teeth that start out sharper and deliver improved edge retention, the blade can go longer between sharpening, and will hold up longer--saving you time and money.Perma-SHIELD Coating Reduces Friction and Heat BuildupBuilt 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 Freud: A History of Innovative ManufacturingAn industry leader for more than 50 years, Freud America, Inc. is a manufacturer and marketer of superior carbide cutting tools for the woodworking industry.

Review: Sharp, clean cuts on A surface - It came quite sharp, and cuts very well on the A surface ('up' side on table saw), the bottom has some chip out, which may be helped with a better zero clearance plate. But, this is listed as one side only, and it meets that expectation very well. I'm pleased with the results (but only have about 100+ ft of cutting with it) - enough so that I would purchase this again, it's quite a bit better cheaper blades I've purchased. UPDATE: I've used this for a few hundred feet of cutting now (~500' in melamine/particle board). It cuts now like it did when new. Very pleased with the cut quality and durability. When dull, I will replace it with this blade.
Review: Great Blade for Woodworking - These blades are the best. I use them in my table saw, chop saw & circular saw. They cut through both hardwood and softwood without issue. Once they become dull you can resharpen and they’re like brand new. I use a local company that sharpens them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent blade for plywood
*by T***N on December 12, 2023*

I used this blade in my table saw to build my kitchen cabinets. It is a fantastic blade for plywood. Perfect cuts, no tear out. Used it for to break down and dimention 18 sheets of 3/4" Cherry ply and 10 sheets of 1/4" cherry ply. Still a lot of life left in the blade. Well worth the cost.
