12 in. Cut-Off Saw Blade, 80T TCG

Description

High tooth count and triple chip grind geometry together cover fine dimensional crosscutting of brittle and abrasive materials on 12 in. production saws. This 80-tooth TCG blade on a 1 in. bore handles solid surface countertop material, dense laminate-faced panel, aluminum, PVC, fiber cement, and composite building products where ATB geometry leaves a chipped or ragged edge. At 80 teeth on a 12 in. blade, the contact arc between adjacent tips is short enough to reduce the fracture risk that comes from high impact spacing in brittle composites. Triple chip geometry handles these materials by scraping rather than shearing at the tooth tip — the flat trapper establishes the cut while the chamfered raker clears the kerf without initiating stress fractures in the material surface. The 1 in. bore fits production sliding table saws and large crosscut saws in this class. Eighty-tooth TCG at 12 in. suits precision final-dimension cutting in solid surface fabrication, cut-to-size laminate panels, and composite trim work where the cut edge is the finished edge and secondary treatment is not practical.
