10" x 30T Industrial Thin Kerf Glue Line Ripping Blade
From the Manufacturer
Freud's new thin kerf glue line rip saw blade. This blade's specifically designed triple chip tooth produces extremely smooth true surfaces for gluing and finish work. There is no need for sanding or jointing after the cut. The ideal working range is from 1/8-Inch to 1-Inch thick. With this ultimate ripping blade, there is no need for stabilizers. Blade features Freud's Tico Hi-Density micro grain carbide with Titanium for long life and a flawless finish, Laser-cut anti-vibration Technology reduces noise and extends cutting life, Laser Cut steel blade body for smoother cuts and flatness, and Non-stick Perma-Shield Coating that reduces gumming, rusting, and corrosion for longer life with less wear. The thin kerf blade removes less material than standard carbide blades, thus requiring less horsepower to produce equally good results. 10-Inch by 30t TCG 5/8-Inch arbor. This blade is covered by Freud's Limited Lifetime Guarantee.

A perfect blade for all rip cuts.

I bought a Dewalt contractor saw to replace my aging "hand-me-down" from my father. I installed this Freud blade to replace the one that came with the table saw. The saw is great, especially the fence system, but the saw blade is a cheap item that gets included in new saws like this one. It keeps the price down, but almost everyone knows that you need to upgrade immediately to get the most out of your saw. I was dazzled with the performance of this blade. WOW! It cuts through plywood and hardwoods beautifully. The sharpness is exquisite and the narrow kerf helps to keep the rip clean and free of unnecessary friction. Of course, you need to tune your saw and get those 90s as close to perfect as you can get them. I spent time with the tuning and used several 90 degree tools to double and triple check my adjustments. I had heard of the quality of Freud blades and decided to give it a try with the new table saw. No regrets, no burns, and no binding. Don't hesitate to give this blade a try. You'll be impressed.

Most of the cutting I do on my DeWalt jobsite saw is ripping. I've used many blades but this is my favorite. Cuts a very clean line with any burn marks and almost doesn't need any sanding. Cut some tenons and surprisingly they turned out fine as well.

I love these blades. This is my fourth one but this one came in with a broken tooth.... disappointed.

This works quite well and does give me that almost ready glue up line I needed for my panel glue ups. I am very happy with the purchase and so far, no problems with the blade or tips. Will definitely buy again in the future when it is time for another.

Put this rip blade on a 1.5HP radial arm saw for ripping hardwoods. Best rip blade I have ever used. Smooth cut with excellent finish.

I am really impressed with this blade so far. I used it to rip 1 inch red cedar, admittedly a soft wood, and the cut lines really were smooth enough to glue up into small panels. I also used it to crosscut some of the 1 inch cedar and obtained very smooth cuts, actually better than a newly-sharpened 60 tooth crosscut blade. The blade also did a very good job on 3/4 and 1/2 inch MDF. I was using a 1.5 HP JET contractor saw for all these cuts. I have not yet tried it on really hard woods.

After some light reading I decided I needed a glue line rip blade. Freud has become my blade of choice for all my tools including router bits. I’ve had nothing but flawless results from both the industrial line and the lower rent Diablo line available at a certain orange big box store and Amazon.I was making a very critical and visible book match glue up for my mantle, it’s the focal point of my new living room and something I’ll sit and stare at and would lament any flaws or less than perfect bookmatch. No pressure, lol. I considered different methods to make the joint but decided on this blade to do the job.I set up the blade in my saw with a Forrest damper and took some extra time getting everything set up best as possible before making some test cuts. From the first cut I was impressed versus any of my combination or cheaper rip blades. Mirror smooth and clean as a whistle! This blade is a winner!!!My friend who’s an accomplished woodworker couldn’t get over how nice the glue line was, perfect isn’t a word I use lightly but this is damn close. As a noobie at fine woodworking and getting questions from someone way more advanced made me feel pretty good but honestly it was the blade. My glue line came out just like I envisioned and I feel it would go toe to toe with glue lines done by anyone. Yes I felt I earned a seat at the big kids table due in large part to how well this blade does it’s job.I’ve since purchased the finest crosscut blade Freud offers and keep those two reserved for critical cuts and use the Diablo blades or several other brands for everyday cuts that aren’t as high profile. A cheap sharp blade will out perform a expensive dull one any day.That way I expect these two blades to last for years as I’m a weekend warrior at best.If your looking for near perfect rip cuts I think you’ll be happy with this. In full disclosure I’ve not made a cut with a Forrest blade (or any other of the ultra expensive options) but I simply can’t see much room for improvement over the Freud.

My favorite ripping blade for thinner stock. You can glue up cuts no issues, and if exposed, minimal sanding. Over 1 inch thick, you should get a thicker blade, it stays more true through about inch thick stock. it will still rip through, no issues , but it won't be square without tripping through a jointer. The thicker,heavier ripping blade is better for that and freud sells those too. I use their ice series commercial 10 inch blade for thick ripping, works great, but not as smooth of cut.

First of all, let me say, that Freud brand never let me down. Their Italian made blades and bits are of superb quality. I own 6 Freud blades and about 10 Freud router bits. All of them perform as expected. I guess, like with any other mass manufacturer, there is a chance you will get an occasional dud, but this would be an exception rather then often occurrence comparing to some other and cheaper brands.I own an old Craftsman 10 inch table saw. It is a great saw, but at 110V it is way under powered to cut as smoothly as I want it to cut. It doesn't cut near as well as a 3.5 HP professional table saw that I used in High School workshop class in the late 80-s.I learned how to use my saw properly. First of all, my saw blade is perfectly parallel to the fence. Second, the blade spins in the plane and does not wobble at all according to my dial indicator. I mostly use thin kerf blade, it cuts hardwood easier. ZCI is a must.I do get burn marks occasionally, all of them are my fault, because I do not keep a constant feed speed. I normally will rip a piece about 1/8 in wider then I need it to be. Then, I clean 1/16 in on each side to get the piece to size. It takes extra time, but as a result I get a mirror smooth surface.Buy this blade without hesitation, learn how to use it, and you will not be disappointed. Money well spent.

Great price for a great blade. I recently re-sawed a 5.75 inch wide peice of curly maple, burying this blade nearly 3 inches deep on each pass, with a fantastic finish, no burning, and limited resistance. That's pretty much max abuse you can put on a blade like this and it performed well above expectations. Also, cutting 1 inch thick mahogany does actually produce glue ready joints comparable to a pass on the jointer. After two sharpenings, I will buy this again.

I`ve always been a CMT and Freud blade user ,and was in the market for a new rip blade or similar.I have a dedicated rip blade (24 tooth Freud) that was going to have to be re-sharpened soon ,and then i read about the glue-line rip in one of my woodworking mags.....sounded interesting.I already have a Delta jointer ,but thought I would give this blade a try ,so I ordered it.Even if the blade does not perform as expected ,it would still do as a rip only blade ,so what to lose ?I`m making a bed side table out of Cherry, and a table top and bottom shelf need to be made from 3 glued up boards ,so this would be a good test.After a few tests on some scrap wood ,to make sure of my feed rates and making sure my tablesaw is all tunes up ,I ripped up spme boards for my glue ups ,and sure enough ,the blade does perform as advertised !!The edges were smooth ,burn free ,no machine marks and the joints nice and tight.......WOW....not bad !!I am impressed.Of course ,feed rates of the stock into the blade must be right (not too fast or too slow) and your machine must be set up properly and everything square.Of course this blade will not replace the jointer ,as it will have it`s limitations ,but even as a ripping blade in hardwood up to an 1" thick ,it is top notch ,as a good Freud blade always is.I love freud blades !!Paul T
