Freud 250mm Carbide Tipped Saw Blade for Plastic and Plexiglass is a precision-engineered circular saw blade built specifically to cut plastic materials, Plexiglass panels, vinyl, aluminum, brass, and copper with a clean, professional finish. Featuring 80 carbide-tipped teeth and a -3 deg. hook angle, this 250mm blade delivers smooth, chip-free cuts through plastic sheeting and non-ferrous materials alike - making it a go-to choice for fabricators, woodworkers, and tradespeople who demand accuracy and reliability from their cutting tools.

Key Features

• Flat-triple chip tooth (TCG) grind with negative cutting angle - the specific tooth geometry and -3 deg. hook angle are engineered to cut plastic materials cleanly without melting or scratching the surface, delivering a perfect finished edge every time.
• 80 carbide-tipped teeth - the high tooth count means more cutting edges contact the material per revolution, resulting in an exceptionally smooth cut that requires minimal cleanup on Plexiglass and plastic panels.
• Silver I.C.E. Coating - prevents build-up on the blade surface and keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner, extending the working life of the blade and maintaining consistent cutting performance over time.
• Silent Sawblade construction - reduces noise during operation, making this blade more comfortable to use in workshop environments where prolonged cutting sessions are common.
• Anti-vibration design - minimizes blade movement during cuts, which translates directly into straighter cut lines and improved surface quality on finished plastic and Plexiglass workpieces.
• 2.8mm kerf with a 2.2mm plate - the slim plate and controlled kerf reduce the amount of material removed per cut, which helps conserve stock and eases feeding, particularly on low-power machines.
• Multiple pinhole configurations (2/7/42 + 2/9/46.4 + 2/10/60) - broad compatibility with a wide range of saw arbor setups, so this blade fits many different machine configurations without requiring adapters.
• Compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, portable table saws, and double miter saws - versatile enough to move between workshop machines and jobsite saws, giving buyers flexibility across multiple cutting setups.

Why This Product

• The TCG grind and -3 deg. negative hook angle are specifically chosen for plastic cutting - they prevent the blade from grabbing the material aggressively, which eliminates the melting and surface scratching that commonly occurs when using a standard wood blade on plastic or Plexiglass.
• The Silver I.C.E. Coating actively resists residue build-up from plastic and non-ferrous materials, keeping the blade cleaner during extended use and reducing the frequency of blade maintenance.
• The reduced cutting height design makes workpiece feeding easier and optimizes performance on low-power machines - meaning shops without high-horsepower saws can still achieve professional results when sizing plastic panels.
• A single blade handles a broad range of materials - Plexiglass, plastic, vinyl, aluminum, brass, and copper - and fits multiple machine types, making it a practical, multi-purpose cutting solution for fabrication shops and trade professionals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can this 250mm Freud saw blade cut?

This blade is rated to cut Plexiglass, plastic, vinyl, aluminum, brass, and copper. It is specifically designed for industrial plastic applications and performs best when sizing Plexiglass and plastic material panels.

Why does this blade use a negative hook angle for cutting plastic?

The blade features a -3 deg. hook angle combined with a flat-triple chip (TCG) grind. This specific tooth geometry is engineered so the blade does not grab aggressively into plastic material, preventing melting and scratching and delivering a clean, finished edge on plastic and Plexiglass workpieces.

Which saw types are compatible with this blade?

This blade is compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, portable table saws, and double miter saws. The 30mm arbor and multiple pinhole configurations (2/7/42 + 2/9/46.4 + 2/10/60) allow it to fit a broad range of machine setups.

What does the Silver I.C.E. Coating do on this blade?

The Silver I.C.E. Coating prevents build-up on the blade surface and keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner during use. This is particularly valuable when cutting plastic and non-ferrous materials, which can leave residue on standard uncoated blades over time.
