Standard carbide blades often generate excessive heat, causing composite materials and cellular PVC to melt, mushroom, or show unsightly swirl marks. This blade solves those issues with a specialized Modified Triple Chip Grind (MTCG) tooth geometry that enables the material to remain cool during the cut, delivering a smooth, melt-free edge that requires no sanding or rework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for maximum durability, the TrexBlade™ features Diablo’s proprietary TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide, formulated specifically to withstand the abrasive nature of plastic composites. The blade body is enhanced with a thin kerf design that requires less power from your saw, making it ideal for jobsite tools. Finished with the Perma-SHIELD® Non-stick coating to combat heat, gumming, and corrosion, this blade ensures long-lasting performance and superior accuracy for professionals and DIYers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #333333;

Maintain a steady, moderate feed rate.
