This Freud 350mm Carbide Tipped Saw Blade for cutting aluminum and non-ferrous metals is a precision-engineered circular saw blade purpose-built for demanding crosscutting applications in aluminum, brass, copper, vinyl, and plastic. Featuring 108 teeth with a Triple Chip Grind (TCG) configuration and a -6 deg. hook angle, this 350mm blade is specifically designed to cut drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm, delivering clean, controlled results in non-ferrous materials. Compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws, this blade brings professional-grade cutting performance to fabrication shops and production environments working with a wide range of medium-thickness non-ferrous stock.

Key Features

• TiCo Hi-Density Carbide - specifically formulated for each cutting application: Freud's exclusive blend of TiCo Hi-Density Carbide is specifically designed for each cutting application to maximize cutting life and material finish, meaning you get longer service intervals and consistently clean edges in aluminum, brass, copper, vinyl, and plastic.
• Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth configuration: The TCG grind is well-suited for cutting non-ferrous metals and plastics, producing smooth, chip-free results and reducing the risk of tooth damage when cutting harder materials like brass and copper.
• -6 deg. hook angle for controlled, stable cutting: The negative hook angle keeps the blade from self-feeding aggressively into the material, giving the operator more control and reducing the chance of grabbing or kickback when cutting aluminum tubing and drawn profiles.
• Silver I.C.E. Coating reduces heat, build up, and eliminates rust and corrosion: Freud's own Silver I.C.E. Coating reduces heat, build up, and eliminates rust and corrosion to maximize the life of the blade, keeping the blade performing at full capacity for longer even in high-cycle production use.
• Anti-Vibration design for flawless cuts: Anti-Vibration design eliminates movement and reduces vibration for flawless cuts, which is especially important when cutting thin-walled aluminum tubing or precision-tolerance non-ferrous profiles.
• Tri-Metal Brazing for superior carbide bond strength: Tri-Metal Brazing gives the tooth superior bond strength and protects the carbide tooth by giving it increased flexibility and impact resistance, reducing the risk of tooth loss when encountering the varied wall thicknesses found in drawn products and tubes.
• Hi-Tolerance Precision Plate Grinding and Tensioning from 48 Rockwell steel: Freud's Hi-Tolerance Precision Plate Grinding and Tensioning features a laser cut blade body from 48 Rockwell steel plate that remains flat and true over the lifetime of the blade, ensuring consistent cut accuracy across every pass in stationary and miter saw setups.
• 3.5mm kerf with a 3mm plate thickness: The blade's kerf and plate dimensions are optimized for rigidity and minimal material waste, supporting accurate, repeatable cuts in a production setting.
• Multiple pinhole configurations (2/9/46.4 + 2/10/60): The dual pinhole pattern supports compatibility with a broader range of saw flanges and arbor configurations, adding versatility across different machine setups.

Why This Product

• Engineered specifically for non-ferrous metals and plastics: With a TCG grind, -6 deg. hook angle, and 108 teeth optimized for aluminum, brass, copper, vinyl, and plastic, this blade is tailored to the material demands of non-ferrous cutting rather than being a general-purpose compromise.
• Designed for drawn products and tubes exceeding 5 mm thickness: The blade's geometry and tooth count are matched to the specific challenge of cutting thicker non-ferrous tube and drawn stock, where tooth load, chip clearance, and stability all matter most.
• Broad machine compatibility reduces tooling changeover: Compatibility with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws - combined with dual pinhole configurations - means this single blade can serve multiple machines in a shop environment.
• Long service life through coating and carbide technology: The combination of Silver I.C.E. Coating and TiCo Hi-Density Carbide works to extend blade life by managing heat buildup and resisting corrosion, reducing the frequency and cost of blade replacement in high-volume cutting operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can this Freud 350mm blade cut?

This blade is designed to cut plastic, vinyl, aluminum, brass, and copper. It is specifically suited for drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm in these non-ferrous and plastic material categories.

Which saws is this blade compatible with?

This blade is compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws. It has a 30mm arbor and dual pinhole configurations (2/9/46.4 + 2/10/60) to support compatibility across a range of machine setups.

What does the TCG grind mean for my cuts in non-ferrous metals?

TCG stands for Triple Chip Grind. This tooth geometry is engineered for cutting non-ferrous metals and plastics, helping to produce smooth, controlled cuts while reducing stress on individual teeth - particularly useful when working with harder non-ferrous materials like brass and copper.

How should I orient the blade when cutting drawn products and tubes?

It is recommendable to use the sawblade over the workpiece to be cut when cutting drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm. This orientation supports safer, more accurate cutting with this blade's -6 deg. hook angle and TCG tooth configuration.
