Built around a Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth geometry and a -6 deg. hook angle, this 140-tooth blade delivers smooth, controlled cuts through drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm - making it a go-to solution for fabricators, metalworkers, and woodworking shops that regularly process non-ferrous materials. Sold individually, this blade fits a 1-inch arbor and is compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e140-Tooth TCG Design at 20-Inch Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e - The high tooth count combined with a Triple Chip Grind geometry reduces chipping and leaves cleaner edges on aluminum, copper, brass, and non-ferrous metals, minimizing secondary finishing work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e-6 deg.
