Freud 15" Thick Stock Aluminum Metal Blade is a 108-tooth specialty saw blade engineered for cutting thick non-ferrous materials including aluminum, brass, and copper with a maximum wall thickness of 1/4". Built around Freud's Premium TiCo HI-Density Carbide Non-Ferrous Blend, this large-diameter circular saw blade delivers clean, precise cuts in demanding shop environments. Whether you are running a miter saw, radial arm saw, or stationary table saw, this 15" non-ferrous cutting blade is designed to handle the rigors of heavy-duty aluminum and metal fabrication work.

Key Features

• Premium TiCo HI-Density Carbide Non-Ferrous Blend for Maximum Performance - this specially formulated carbide is designed specifically for cutting nonferrous metals, meaning the cutting edges hold up longer and maintain performance through extended use.
• Freud-Made TiCo Carbide specifically designed to cut nonferrous metals extends tooth life - longer tooth life translates directly to fewer blade replacements and lower cost per cut over time.
• Unique Gullet Design reduces chip build-up, which can cause shoulder damage or breakage - by clearing chips efficiently, the blade stays safer and more stable during cuts, protecting both the blade and your workpiece.
• Silver Ice Coating resists corrosion and pitch build-up - keeping the blade surface clean and protected means smoother cutting action and a longer overall service life.
• TCG (Triple Chip Grind) - this grind geometry is ideally suited for aluminum, brass, and copper, producing a clean finish on non-ferrous materials while reducing the risk of chipping or grabbing.
• -7 deg. hook angle - the negative hook angle helps control the feed rate during cuts in thick non-ferrous stock, resulting in more stable, controlled cutting behavior.
• 108 teeth on a 15" diameter blade - the high tooth count on this large-diameter blade means finer, smoother cuts in aluminum and other non-ferrous metals with less finishing work required afterward.
• Kerf of.142" with a plate thickness of.118" - the kerf-to-plate ratio provides structural rigidity while minimizing material waste with each pass through the workpiece.
• Compatible with miter saws, radial arm saws, and stationary table saws - versatile tool compatibility means this blade integrates into multiple common shop setups without requiring a dedicated machine.

Why This Product

• Designed specifically for thick non-ferrous stock with a maximum wall thickness of 1/4", this blade is purpose-built for aluminum, brass, and copper rather than being a general-purpose workaround.
• The combination of TiCo Carbide teeth and a Silver Ice Coating addresses two of the most common problems in non-ferrous metal cutting - tooth wear and pitch build-up - helping the blade stay effective cut after cut.
• With 108 teeth and a TCG grind on a 15" blade, this is a high tooth-count specialty blade that prioritizes finish quality in non-ferrous materials, reducing secondary cleanup on cut edges.
• Freud recommends using a liquid lubricant such as WD-40 or a similar product every 4 to 5 cuts when using this blade, and notes that wax sticks are not recommended - straightforward guidance that helps users get the best results and longest blade life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can this blade cut?

This blade is rated for cutting aluminum, brass, and copper. It is designed for thick non-ferrous materials with a maximum wall thickness of 1/4".

Which saws is this blade compatible with?

This 15" blade with a 1" arbor is compatible with miter saws, radial arm saws, and stationary table saws.

Is a lubricant required when using this blade?

Freud recommends using a liquid lubricant such as WD-40 or a similar lubricant every 4 to 5 cuts when cutting with this blade. Wax sticks are not recommended.

What does TCG grind mean and why does it matter for non-ferrous cutting?

TCG stands for Triple Chip Grind. This grind geometry is specifically suited for cutting non-ferrous metals like aluminum, brass, and copper, helping produce a cleaner finish while reducing the risk of chipping or material grabbing during the cut.
