Freud manufactures some of the most innovative, technologically advanced woodworking tools and accessories in the world. To ensure that the highest quality products meet the toughest design standards, Freud owns and operates six manufacturing facilities in Western Europe.

By overseeing the entire manufacturing process from start to finish, Freud guarantees some of the highest quality, most advanced products in the industry.

About Freud Industrial Blades
Freud’s industrial series blades were designed for the serious woodworker. Available in a variety of styles for different applications, LU blades feature thick carbide tips, precision-tensioned bodies found in every Freud quality blade. Some LU blades include a red Teflon coating that helps reduce friction, heat build-up, and gumming -- which prolongs the life of the blade.

This review is from: Freud LU89M010 10-Inch 72 Tooth TCG Nonferrous Metal Cutting Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arbor (Tools & Home Improvement)

Cuts nice and clean with no vibration or gouging. I do custom shower and glass barrier system installations. I like this 72 tooth blade because with care I can use it to cut both thin and thick extrusions and you don't need a large powerful miter saw which means I can save space on the truck.
