Featuring 120 teeth and a 1-inch arbor, this blade is purpose-built for drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm, making it an ideal choice for miter saw, stationary table saw, and double miter saw setups. The Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth geometry and -6 deg. hook angle combine to deliver smooth, controlled cuts through non-ferrous metals with minimal burring - a critical benefit when finish quality matters. Sold individually, this Italian-crafted blade brings professional-grade performance to demanding metal-cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e120-Tooth TCG Grind:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Triple Chip Grind tooth profile paired with 120 teeth produces fine, smooth cuts through aluminum and non-ferrous metals - reducing the need for secondary finishing work on cut edges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e-6 deg.
