Designed specifically for drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5mm, this blade delivers clean, efficient cuts when used on miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws. With a Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth geometry, a -6 deg. hook angle, and a 3.5mm kerf, it is purpose-built to handle medium to thick non-ferrous stock with control and precision. The Silver I.C.E. Coating keeps the blade surface clean and cooler during operation, making it a reliable choice for fabricators and metalworking professionals who need consistent performance from their cold saw or table saw setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e96-Tooth TCG Grind\u003c\/strong\u003e - The Triple Chip Grind tooth configuration produces smooth, burr-reduced cuts through aluminum, brass, copper, vinyl, and plastic, reducing finishing time after each pass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e-6 deg.
