Heavy-Duty 12 Inch 60-Tooth Combination Circular Saw Blade

The Freud LU84R012 12-Inch 60-Tooth Combination Circular Saw Blade operates as a versatile wood cutting disc engineered to execute fast rip passes and smooth crosscuts through natural hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and composite boards. Manufactured with TiCo high-density titanium cobalt combination carbide tips ground in a 4 ATB plus 1 Flat Raker configuration, this 1-inch arbor blade functions on table saws, miter saws, and radial arm saws. Featuring a 0.126-inch kerf profile, a 10-degree positive hook angle, laser-cut anti-vibration slots, and a thermal red Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating, the unit maximizes cutting efficiency while preventing pitch resin accumulation and core plate thermal distortion.

Best Used For:

  • All-Purpose Table Saw Ripping & Crosscutting: Executing clean 3/8-inch to 1-1/2-inch rip cuts and 3/4-inch to 3-1/2-inch crosscuts without changing saw blades.
  • Architectural Trim & Framing Joinery: Milling crisp edge joints and component lengths in oak, maple, walnut, and softwood pine stock.
  • Cabinetry Plywood & Panel Trimming: Slicing veneer-faced cabinet plywood and composite sheet goods with minimal face tearout.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • 5-Tooth Combination Geometry: Arranged in groups of four ATB teeth for clean crosscuts followed by one flat raker tooth and deep gullets for fast rip swarf ejection.
  • TiCo High-Density Combination Carbide: Custom-formulated micro-grain titanium cobalt carbide cutter tips maintain sharp edge retention through abrasive wood fibers.
  • Laser-Cut Anti-Vibration Slots: Engine-etched dampening vents trap thermal noise and eliminate sideways wobble, rendering blade stabilizers unnecessary.
  • Perma-SHIELD Non-Stick Thermal Barrier: Red fluoropolymer coating guards against extreme friction heat, pitch gumming, and core plate rust.
  • Computer-Controlled Thermal Tensioning: Laser-cut 0.087-inch alloy steel body remains flat, true, and wobble-free under continuous cutting loads.

Pro-Tip: When ripping 4/4 or 6/4 hardwood lumber on a table saw, set the blade height so the carbide teeth extend approximately 1/2 inch above the top face of the board. Proper tooth extension optimizes the raker gullet capacity for clearing dense wood chips, preventing edge scorching while maintaining smooth feed rates.
