Freud LU85R014 14 Inch 108T Ultimate Cut-Off Saw Blade with 1 Inch Arbor and Perma-SHIELD Coating for Glass Smooth Finishes in Hardwood and Softwood

Achieve a Mirror-Like Finish with the Industry's Leading Precision Cut-Off Blade

The Freud LU85R014 14-Inch Ultimate Cut-Off Blade is the definitive choice for professional woodworkers who demand a glass-smooth finish without the need for secondary sanding. Engineered specifically for crosscutting and mitering delicate materials like picture frames and moldings, this blade features a unique High Alternate Top Bevel (Hi-ATB) tooth design that actually polishes the wood as it cuts. Whether you are working with solid hardwoods, softwoods, or abrasive man-made materials, the LU85R014 ensures clean, chip-free edges even on surfaces covered in paint, metallic foil, or plaster.

Built for high-production environments, this blade utilizes Freud’s exclusive TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide and a state-of-the-art Perma-SHIELD® non-stick coating to reduce blade drag and protect against heat, corrosion, and pitch build-up. To ensure maximum stability and accuracy, the blade body is laser-cut from high-quality 48 Rockwell steel and features anti-vibration slots that practically eliminate sideways movement. This combination of precision engineering and industrial-grade materials allows the LU85R014 to remain flat and true throughout its lifetime, providing unmatched value and performance for stationary table saws, miter saws, and radial arm saws.

Specifications

Pro-Tip: To achieve the legendary "glass-smooth" finish this blade is capable of, ensure your saw's fence and miter gauge are perfectly square. Because the teeth are designed to polish the material, a slow and steady feed rate will yield the best results, especially when working with pre-finished moldings or delicate veneers.
