The Freud 500mm Thin to Medium Aluminum and Non-Ferrous Saw Blade is a professional-grade, carbide-tipped circular saw blade engineered for precise, clean cutting of aluminum, brass, copper, vinyl, and plastic materials. Built around a 140-tooth configuration and a 30mm arbor, this Italian-made blade is designed for use on miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws where reliable, repeatable cuts through non-ferrous metals and polymeric panels are essential. With a TCG (triple chip grind) tooth geometry and a 5 deg. hook angle, it delivers controlled, burr-minimizing performance on drawn products, tubes, and sheet goods that demand accuracy.

Key Features

• Flat-triple chip tooth with positive cutting angle - the TCG grind geometry combines a flat tooth and a chamfered tooth in alternating sequence, reducing chipping and producing cleaner edges on non-ferrous metals and polymeric materials, which means less secondary finishing work on the cut surface.
• Silver I.C.E. Coating - this specialized surface coating actively prevents material buildup on the blade body and keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner during operation, extending usable blade life and reducing the need for frequent cleaning between cuts.
• Silent Sawblade design - the blade plate incorporates noise and vibration damping technology, resulting in a quieter cutting experience and reduced operator fatigue during extended production runs.
• 140 teeth on a 500mm diameter - the high tooth count delivers an exceptionally fine finish cut on aluminum, brass, copper, and plastic, making this blade well suited for fabrication and finishing applications where surface quality matters.
• 4mm kerf with a 3.2mm plate - the kerf-to-plate ratio provides the right balance of material removal and blade stability, helping the blade track straight and true through thin to medium stock.
• 30mm arbor with 2/10.5/70 pinholes - the arbor and pinhole configuration is compatible with a wide range of professional stationary and miter saw machines, making mounting straightforward and secure.
• Rated for materials from 2mm to 5mm thickness (drawn products and tubes) and polymeric panels up to 20mm - this defined usage range lets buyers match the blade precisely to their material stock, avoiding over- or under-specifying their tooling.

Why This Product

• Purpose-built for cutting aluminum, brass, copper, vinyl, and plastic in a single blade - reducing the need to swap tooling when moving between non-ferrous metal and polymeric panel work on the same machine.
• The Silver I.C.E. Coating combined with the TCG tooth grind work together to minimize heat buildup and material adhesion, two of the most common causes of premature blade wear when cutting non-ferrous metals.
• The Silent Sawblade design addresses both workplace noise levels and blade vibration simultaneously, contributing to more consistent cut quality and a more comfortable working environment during high-volume cutting tasks.
• Compatible with three machine types - miter saw, stationary table saw, and double miter saw - giving this blade genuine versatility across different shop setups without requiring a dedicated machine for each application.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can this blade cut?

This blade is designed to cut plastic, vinyl, aluminum, brass, and copper. It is specifically rated for drawn products and tubes with a thickness between 2 and 5 mm, as well as polymeric panels up to 20 mm thick.

Which machines is this blade compatible with?

This 500mm blade is compatible with miter saws, stationary table saws, and double miter saws. It fits a 30mm arbor and includes a 2/10.5/70 pinhole configuration for secure mounting on appropriate machines.

What does the Silver I.C.E. Coating do?

The Silver I.C.E. Coating prevents buildup on the blade surface and keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner during use. This helps maintain cutting performance over time and reduces how often the blade needs to be cleaned during operation.

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

TCG stands for triple chip grind, which is the tooth geometry used on this blade. The flat-triple chip tooth with positive cutting angle is designed to produce clean, accurate cuts on non-ferrous metals and polymeric materials while reducing the risk of chipping or rough edges on the cut surface.
