The Freud Difference
Freud manufactures some of the most innovative, technologically advanced saw blades 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. Freud is one of the few manufacturers of woodworking tools in the world that produces its own MicroGrain carbide with titanium, called TiCo -- a combination of titanium and cobalt. Freud develops different types of carbide for each application to maximize the cutting life and performance of the tool; and Freud also operates one of the most modern product development research centers in 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.

About this Miter Saw Blade
The Freud 10-Inch 60-Tooth sliding compound miter saw blade provides a superior finish cut with both slide and non-sliding compound miter saws. A 5-degree negative hook prevents the blade from being too aggressive and helps push the work piece down and towards the fence; and the Perma-Shield coating helps make the blade resistant to friction and heat buildup. This blade is compatible with the Hitachi C8FB, Makita LS1011, and radial-arm saws for reduced climbing while crosscutting softwood, hardwood, or moldings.

Applications
This is a fine finish blade for sliding miter and radial arm saws. Use it to crosscut softwood, hardwood, or moldings.

Key Tech Specs:

• 5/8-inch arbor
• Tri-Metal Brazing
• 1/2-inch minimum depth of cut
• 2-3/4-inch maximum depth of cut

Warranty
This blade is covered by Freud's limited lifetime warranty.

Product Description

This 10", thin kerf industrial blade provides a superior finish cut with sliding compound miter saws. The 5 degrees negative hook angle helps prevent the blade from being too aggressive and pushes the workpiece down and towards the fence. The .090 thin kerf blade removes less material than standard carbide blades, and thus requires less horsepower to produce equally good results. 5/8" arbor

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Radial Arm Saw Blade, June 20, 2000

This review is from: Freud LU91R010 10-Inch 60 Tooth ATB Thin Kerf Miter Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arbor and PermaShield Coating (Tools & Home Improvement)

This blade has made me decide to keep my Radial Arm Saw instead of selling it. The negative hook made such a huge difference in reducing climb cutting that I wondered if it were too good to be true. The finish on the cut is glass smooth. If you have a radial arm or a sliding miter saw give this blade a try.

This review is from: Freud LU91R010 10-Inch 60 Tooth ATB Thin Kerf Miter Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arbor and PermaShield Coating (Tools & Home Improvement)

I put this blade on my Craftsman radial arm saw and it completely
changed the way I feel about that saw. Now the thing cuts
like a hot knife through butter. The cross cuts leave end
grain so smooth you'd swear you were feeling a sanded surface
with the grain. Ok, maybe not that smooth, but still, pretty
darn smooth. I haven't tried any other fancy or expensive
blades, but this blade put my old cross cutting blades to
shame. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars great blade, February 6, 2006

This review is from: Freud LU91R010 10-Inch 60 Tooth ATB Thin Kerf Miter Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arbor and PermaShield Coating (Tools & Home Improvement)

I bought this blade based on reviews here after looking at several much more expensive blades. I've been using it to trim out a house in a very cheap (Delta MS250) mitre saw and it has really exceeded all my expectations. I've made hundreds of cuts in PFJ millwork with almost zero tearout. I've since bought a couple other Freud blades that I've been very happy with. I do have to say that I am a noob at this and my only other hands on experience is with the blades that came in my saws (all cheap ones!)
