Freud 14 in. Plastic Cutting Saw Blade is a specialty 108-tooth blade engineered for cutting plexiglass, acrylic, polycarbonate, laminate, chipboard, and a wide range of plastic materials. Featuring a Modified Triple Chip Grind tooth design, a negative hook angle, and Premium TiCo HI-Density Carbide Plastic Blend, this 14 in. diameter blade is built to deliver clean, smooth cuts through sheet plastics and laminated panels without melting or grabbing the material. With a 1 in. arbor and compatibility with miter saws, radial arm saws, stationary table saws, and portable table saws, it is a versatile addition to any shop working with plastic sheet goods or laminate fabrication.

Key Features

• Premium TiCo HI-Density Carbide Plastic Blend - this advanced carbide formulation is optimized for cutting plastics and laminates, giving the blade the hardness and edge retention needed for maximum performance through demanding materials.
• Modified Triple Chip Grind (MTCG) tooth design - the MTCG geometry enables material to remain cool while cutting, eliminating the melting and smearing that can ruin plastic workpieces and produce ragged edges.
• Negative hook angle of -3 deg. - the negative hook angle produces a superior finish without grabbing the material, reducing the risk of chipping, tear-out, or sudden material movement during the cut.
• Silver Ice Coating on the blade body - this protective coating resists corrosion and pitch build-up, keeping the plate clean and extending the working life of the blade between cleanings.
• 108 teeth on a 14 in. diameter plate - the high tooth count produces finer, smoother cut edges in plexiglass and plastic, reducing the need for secondary finishing work.
• Kerf of.110 in. and plate thickness of.087 in. - the precise kerf and plate dimensions minimize material waste and reduce the side load on the saw, helping the blade track cleanly through the cut.
• Depth of cut range from 1/4 in. to 1 5/8 in. - this range covers common plastic sheet and panel thicknesses, making the blade practical for a broad variety of plexiglass and laminate cutting tasks.
• Compatible with miter saws, radial arm saws, stationary table saws, and portable table saws - broad tool compatibility means this blade fits the equipment already in your shop without requiring a dedicated machine.

Why This Product

• The MTCG tooth design keeps cutting temperatures low, which is critical when working with plastics and acrylics - materials that melt or fuse at the cut edge when a blade generates too much heat.
• The -3 deg. negative hook angle holds back the cutting action, preventing the blade from aggressively grabbing sheet plastic and producing the kind of clean, controlled finish that would otherwise require sanding or polishing.
• The Silver Ice Coating actively resists pitch build-up, meaning the blade stays cleaner longer and maintains consistent cutting performance across extended use on laminate and chipboard as well as plastics.
• With 108 teeth and a 1 in. arbor on a full 14 in. diameter, this blade is scaled for production or shop use on large-format plastic sheet stock - a depth of cut up to 1 5/8 in. covers most commercial panel thicknesses in a single pass.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of materials is this blade designed to cut?

This blade is designed for cutting plexiglass, plastic, laminate, and chipboard. The usage specification confirms it is suited for plexiglass and plastics, with a depth of cut ranging from 1/4 in. to 1 5/8 in.

Why does this blade use a Modified Triple Chip Grind instead of a standard tooth profile?

The Modified Triple Chip Grind (MTCG) tooth design enables material to remain cool while cutting, eliminating melting - a critical advantage when working with plastics and acrylics that are sensitive to heat generated at the cut edge.

What saws is this 14 in. blade compatible with?

This blade is compatible with miter saws, radial arm saws, stationary table saws, and portable table saws, all using a 1 in. arbor.

What does the negative hook angle do for plastic cutting?

The -3 deg. negative hook angle produces a superior finish without grabbing the material. In plastic cutting applications, this controlled cutting action reduces the risk of chipping, cracking, or sudden material movement that can occur with more aggressive positive-hook tooth geometries.
