Specifically engineered to reduce the strain on your machine, the thin kerf design removes less material than standard blades, requiring significantly less horsepower to drive through dense stock. This efficiency, combined with Freud's friction-reducing Perma-SHIELD™ coating, allows the blade to pull one-third less on the saw. The result is a dramatic boost in effective cutting power—over 33%—allowing you to rip through hardwoods and softwoods with a faster feed rate and less waste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for heavy-duty performance, this blade features Freud’s proprietary TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide Ripping Blend, ensuring the teeth stay razor-sharp even after prolonged use in thick stock ranging from 3\/4\" to 2-3\/4\". The aggressive 20-degree positive hook angle and Flat Top Grind (FTG) tooth geometry work in tandem to deliver fast, effortless cuts that are square and true. Whether you are processing rough lumber or sizing panels, the LU87R012 offers the durability and precision needed for a glue-line ready edge straight off the saw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #333333; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; padding-bottom: 5px; margin-top: 25px;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThin Kerf Geometry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reduces drag and material waste, making it ideal for saws with less horsepower (under 3 HP).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide:\u003c\/strong\u003e Specialized ripping blend carbide maximizes edge retention and cutting life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerma-SHIELD™ Coating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-stick aluminum alloy coating prevents heat buildup, gumming, corrosion, and reduces friction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePositive Hook Angle (20°):\u003c\/strong\u003e Aggressive angle allows for fast cutting speeds and easy feeding through thick material.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlat Top Grind (FTG):\u003c\/strong\u003e Square tooth design creates a flat-bottomed cut, excellent for efficient chip removal and joinery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optimized for ripping heavy-duty stock with a thickness between 3\/4\" and 2-3\/4\".\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #333333; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 25px;\"\u003e(1) 12-Inch x 30-Tooth Thin Kerf Rip Saw Blade\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #333333; border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable height=\"472\" style=\"width: 49.1071%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-bottom: 25px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003eBlade Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); width: 59.9284%;\"\u003e12 Inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003eArbor Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); width: 59.9284%;\"\u003e1 Inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003eNumber of Teeth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); width: 59.9284%;\"\u003e30\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003eTooth Grind\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); width: 59.9284%;\"\u003eFlat (Flat Top Grind)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003eKerf Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); width: 59.9284%;\"\u003e0.094 Inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003ePlate Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); width: 59.9284%;\"\u003e0.071 Inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003eHook Angle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); width: 59.9284%;\"\u003e20 Degrees\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); font-weight: bold; width: 40.0716%;\"\u003eMin.
