Application: For Fast, Thick Stock Cutting

This highly aggressive general purpose blade is ideal for a production environment. With its low number of teeth and steep hook angle, this blade can operate at high feed rates. These features can also make it the blade of choice when crosscutting extremely thick stock. Use it with dimension stock where speed is more important than surface quality. The ideal working range is from 1/4″ to 1 1/4″ thick for ripping, and 1 1/2″ to 3 1/2″ thick for crosscutting. Thicker or thinner material may be cut but some loss of surface finish may occur.

Premium TiCo™ HI-Density Carbide General Purpose Blend for Maximum Performance. Heavy-Duty Thick Kerf and Plate ensure a stable, flat blade for long cutting life. Positive Hook Angle for fast cutting and easy feed. Silver Ice Coating resists corrosion and pitch buildup.

Ideal For: Fast, Thick Stock Cutting Crosscuts (1-1/2″ to 3-1/2″) & Rips (1/4″ to1-1/4″).

Tip: Maintain a proper feed rate. Feeding too slow causes burning of the material. Feeding too fast can be dangerous and produces a poor dull cut.
