Freud 450mm Medium to Thick Aluminum and Non-Ferrous Saw Blade with 108 Teeth and 32mm Arbor is a professional-grade carbide-tipped circular saw blade engineered specifically for cutting aluminum, brass, copper, and other non-ferrous metals, as well as plastic and vinyl materials. Featuring a Triple Chip Grind tooth geometry and Silver I.C.E. Coating, this 450mm blade delivers clean, controlled cuts through drawn products and tubes with a wall thickness exceeding 5 mm - making it a reliable choice for fabricators and metalworkers who demand precision and long cutting life from their stationary table saws, miter saws, and double miter saws.

Key Features

• Flat-triple chip tooth with positive cutting angle - the TCG grind geometry aggressively shears through aluminum, brass, copper, and non-ferrous alloys while reducing chipping and burring, so workpieces come off the saw cleaner and require less secondary finishing.
• Silver I.C.E. Coating prevents build up on the blade surface and keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner - pitch, resin, and metal residue are less likely to accumulate, which helps maintain cutting efficiency over extended use and prolongs the life of the blade between cleanings.
• Silent Sawblade design - noise-dampening construction reduces vibration during the cut, contributing to a smoother cutting experience and helping keep workplace noise levels more manageable.
• 108-tooth count on a 450mm diameter - the high tooth count produces fine, smooth surface finishes on non-ferrous metals and plastics, which is critical when cut quality directly affects downstream assembly or finishing steps.
• -6 deg. hook angle - the negative hook angle helps control the feed rate when cutting metal profiles, reducing the risk of the blade grabbing the workpiece and improving operator safety and cut consistency.
• 4mm kerf with a 3.2mm plate - the kerf and plate combination provides structural rigidity during demanding cuts through thick-walled tubing and drawn metal profiles while keeping material waste to a practical minimum.
• Compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws - the 32mm arbor and 450mm diameter suit a range of professional workshop machines, making this blade a versatile option across different tool setups.

Why This Product

• Designed for medium-to-thick non-ferrous stock - this blade is specifically rated for cutting drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm, so buyers working with structural aluminum profiles, copper tubing, or brass bar stock get a blade matched to their actual material demands rather than a general-purpose compromise.
• Multi-material versatility - beyond aluminum, the blade is suitable for cutting plastic, vinyl, brass, and copper, allowing shops that work across different non-ferrous materials to standardize on a single high-performance blade rather than stocking separate solutions for each material.
• Cooler, cleaner cutting through advanced coating - the Silver I.C.E. Coating actively resists build-up on the blade surface, which means less downtime for cleaning and a more consistent cut quality throughout the blade's service life.
• Broad machine compatibility - with a 32mm arbor fitting standard professional equipment including stationary table saws, miter saws, and double miter saws, this blade integrates into established workshop setups without requiring adapters or machine modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What material thickness is this blade designed to handle?

This blade is intended to cut drawn products and tubes whose thickness exceeds 5 mm. For best results, it is recommendable to use it with the sawblade over the workpiece to be cut.

Which materials can this blade cut?

This blade is rated for cutting aluminum, brass, copper, plastic, and vinyl - making it a practical choice for shops that work with a variety of non-ferrous metals and plastic materials on the same equipment.

What type of tooth grind does this blade use, and why does it matter for metal cutting?

The blade uses a TCG (Triple Chip Grind) tooth geometry combined with a flat-triple chip tooth design and a -6 deg. hook angle. This combination is well-suited to non-ferrous metals because the negative hook angle controls feed rate and reduces grabbing, while the triple chip configuration shears material cleanly to minimize burring on cut edges.

What machines is this blade compatible with?

This 450mm blade with a 32mm arbor is compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws - covering the most common professional workshop configurations used for cutting aluminum profiles, tubing, and sheet goods.
