• Specs: Arbor 1", Diameter 14", Grind ATB, Hook Angle 10°, Kerf .118", Plate .087", Teeth 108
• Freud’s exclusive blend of TiCo Hi-Density Carbide is specifically designed for each cutting application to maximize cutting life and material finish
• Freud’s own Silver I.C.E. Coating reduces heat, build up, and eliminates rust and corrosion to maximize the life of the blade
• Hi-Alternate Top Bevel (Hi-ATB) tooth geometry with Axial Shear Face side grind polishes the material to produce a superior finish in high-speed applications
• Thin kerf blades remove less material than standard carbide blades, thus requiring less horsepower to produce equally good results
• Laser-cut blade body with anti-vibration technology add superior stability, a precise quality of cut while reducing machine vibration and maximizing the life of the blade in upcut saws and large production manufacturing
• Tri-Metal Brazing gives the tooth superior bond strength and protects the carbide tooth by giving it increased flexibility and impact resistance
• Freud’s Hi-Tolerance Precision Plate Grinding & Tensioning features a laser cut blade body from 48 Rockwell steel plate (the world’s highest quality steel) that remains flat and true, over the lifetime of the blade for ultimate accuracy

• Ensure your cut-off saw is unplugged. Mount the 14-inch Freud LU74R014 blade onto the 1-inch arbor, ensuring the teeth are oriented to cut on the downstroke (away from the operator). Secure the blade with the saw's arbor nut. — Mount Blade Securely
• Position your workpiece firmly against the saw's fence and hold it down securely. Ensure the cut-off point is aligned with the blade's path. The thin kerf design requires less horsepower, so ensure your saw is adequately powered for the material. — Set Up for Cut
• Engage the saw and allow the blade to reach full speed before contacting the material. Feed the blade smoothly through the workpiece. The Hi-ATB tooth geometry and anti-vibration technology will help produce a clean, polished cut with minimal vibration. — Perform the Cut
• Allow the blade to stop completely before removing the cut material. Periodically clean the blade to remove resin buildup and inspect for any damage. Store the blade in a dry place to prevent rust, aided by its Silver I.C.E. Coating. — Post-Cut & Maintenance
