Freud's 20-inch Medium to Thick Aluminum and Non-Ferrous Saw Blade is a professional-grade carbide-tipped cutting tool engineered specifically for sawing aluminum, brass, copper, plastic, and vinyl with precision and efficiency. Featuring 120 teeth and a 1-inch arbor, this blade is built for operators who demand clean, controlled cuts through drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm. The triple chip grind geometry and negative hook angle work together to deliver smooth, reliable performance on non-ferrous metals and plastics alike - making it a go-to choice for fabrication shops and production environments that depend on stationary table saws, miter saws, and double miter saws.

Key Features

• Flat-triple chip tooth with positive cutting angle - the TCG grind geometry distributes cutting stress evenly across each tooth, reducing chip load and helping produce cleaner cuts through aluminum, brass, copper, and other non-ferrous materials.
• Silent Sawblade design - engineered to minimize vibration and noise during operation, keeping the work environment safer and more comfortable while maintaining consistent cut quality.
• Silver I.C.E. Coating - prevents build up on the blade surface and keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner, which reduces friction-related wear and helps extend the usable life of the blade.
• 120-tooth configuration on a 20-inch diameter - the high tooth count across this large-format blade delivers fine, precise results when cutting medium to thick non-ferrous stock, minimizing rough edges and secondary finishing work.
• -6 deg. hook angle - the negative hook geometry helps control the feed rate and reduces the risk of the blade grabbing the workpiece, improving operator control and cut consistency on aluminum and similar materials.
• Compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws - broad tool compatibility means this blade integrates directly into professional workshop setups without requiring dedicated hardware changes.

Why This Product

• Designed specifically for drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm, this blade addresses a precise cutting requirement that general-purpose saw blades are not optimized for - giving fabricators a tool matched to their actual workload.
• The Silver I.C.E. Coating actively prevents residue build up and keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner, translating to less downtime for cleaning and a longer service interval between blade replacements.
• With 120 teeth on a 20-inch plate, this blade is configured for the kind of fine, controlled cuts that non-ferrous metal fabrication demands - reducing burrs and surface imperfections on materials like aluminum, copper, and brass.
• Verified compatibility with three tool types - miter saw, stationary table saw, and double miter saw - gives shops the flexibility to use this blade across multiple machines without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can this blade cut?

This blade is approved for cutting plastic, vinyl, aluminum, brass, and copper. It is specifically designed for drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm in the aluminum and non-ferrous metal category.

What is the recommended cutting orientation when using this blade?

According to the usage guidance for this blade, it is recommendable to use it with the sawblade over the workpiece to be cut. Following this orientation helps ensure optimal cutting performance on medium to thick drawn products and tubes.

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

TCG stands for Triple Chip Grind, which is the grind type specified for this blade. This tooth geometry alternates between flat-top and chamfered teeth, helping distribute cutting forces across the tooth profile - making it well suited to the hardness characteristics of non-ferrous metals like aluminum, brass, and copper.

Which power tools is this blade compatible with?

This 20-inch blade is compatible with three tool types: miter saw, stationary table saw, and double miter saw. It has a 1-inch arbor, so verifying your machine's arbor size before installation is important for proper fit.
