The Freud 14 in. Thick Stock Aluminum Metal Blade is a precision-engineered circular saw blade purpose-built for cutting thick non-ferrous materials including aluminum, brass, and copper with a wall thickness up to 1/4 in. maximum. Featuring 100 teeth and a 1 in. arbor, this specialty blade delivers a clean, controlled finish on stationary table saws, miter saws, and radial arm saws. Made in Italy, it combines Freud's proprietary TiCo HI-Density Carbide Non-Ferrous Blend with a unique gullet design and Silver Ice Coating to give metalworking professionals and serious craftsmen a reliable tool for demanding non-ferrous cutting applications.

Key Features

• Premium TiCo HI-Density Carbide Non-Ferrous Blend for Maximum Performance - Freud-made TiCo Carbide is specifically designed to cut nonferrous metals, extending tooth life so you spend less time changing blades and more time working.
• 100-Tooth TCG Grind - The Triple Chip Grind geometry produces smooth, precise cuts through aluminum, brass, and copper, reducing the finishing work needed after each pass.
• Unique Gullet Design reduces chip build-up, which can cause shoulder damage or breakage - Keeping chips clear of the cut zone helps protect both the blade and the workpiece, improving safety and extending blade life.
• Silver Ice Coating resists corrosion and pitch build-up - A cleaner blade surface means less friction during cuts, more consistent results, and a longer service life between cleanings.
• -7 deg. Hook Angle - The negative hook angle gives you better control over cut initiation in non-ferrous metals, helping to prevent the blade from grabbing the material and reducing the risk of kickback.
• .142 in. Kerf with.118 in. Plate - A carefully balanced kerf-to-plate ratio minimizes material waste while maintaining blade stability through thick stock cuts up to 1/4 in. wall thickness.
• Compatible with Miter Saws, Radial Arm Saws, and Stationary Table Saws - Versatile tool compatibility means this single blade can serve multiple machines in a workshop or fabrication environment.

Why This Product

• Engineered specifically for cutting thick non-ferrous metals like aluminum, brass, and copper - not a general-purpose blade pressed into service - so performance in these materials is optimized from the ground up.
• The combination of TiCo Carbide formulation and Silver Ice Coating directly addresses the two most common causes of blade degradation in non-ferrous cutting: tooth wear and pitch build-up.
• A 100-tooth count on a 14 in. diameter blade means more cutting edges per rotation, translating to a finer finish on soft metals without requiring secondary processing.
• Sold as a single blade, so you purchase exactly what you need for a specific application without paying for quantities you do not require.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can this blade cut?

This blade is designed to cut aluminum, brass, and copper. It is intended for thick non-ferrous materials with a wall thickness up to 1/4 in. maximum. It is not intended for ferrous metals or wood.

Which power tools is this blade compatible with?

This 14 in. blade is approved for use with a miter saw, radial arm saw, and stationary table saw, provided the tool accepts a 1 in. arbor.

Does Freud recommend any lubrication when using this blade on non-ferrous metals?

Yes. Freud recommends applying a liquid lubricant such as WD-40 or a similar product approximately every 4 to 5 cuts. Wax sticks are not recommended for use with this blade.

What does the TCG grind mean for my cuts?

TCG stands for Triple Chip Grind. This grind geometry is well suited to cutting non-ferrous metals like aluminum, brass, and copper, and works together with the unique gullet design to reduce chip build-up that could cause shoulder damage or blade breakage.
