Freud Industrial Glue Line Ripping Saw Blade with Premium Tico Hi-Density Carbide Ripping Blend for Maximum Performance - 10" Diameter, 30 Teeth, TCG Grind - LM74R010

I have a sawstop table saw and a delta one. Put these blades on and they cut perfect. I've bought blades that cost several times the price of these ( Forrest ), but the quality is great on these Freud blades. As far as durability. Depends on what you are cutting. Hickory is tough on blades.

With a properly set up saw , this blade is exactly what it says it is. I can literally rip boards and glue them up without gaps. Just be sure all to keep the pieces you are ripping 1” and under, that’s what it is designed for.

Beast of a blade. Very heavy, cuts smooth.

I have a jointer so cleaning up after a rough rip is no big deal. But, with my other thin kerf rip blade, a Freud 24 tooth one, it still meant that I had to plan ahead. That is, I had to cut parts oversize so I could joint both sides even if the rip was pretty clean. The biggest problem was that the thin kerf blade had problems ripping boards that were not "perfectly" flat. When I would buy hardwood, I would have to rip it right away. If the board had a chance to twist, ripping, especially relatively thin strips, was difficult. You could almost see the blade vibrate. Stabilizers didn't help. One could argue that you shouldn't be working with non-flat boards in the first place. Thinking back, I don't know why I have ANY thin kerf blades. I have a powerful enough table saw so that thick or thin doesn't matter. I can see where some craftsmen who must take a small, portable, table saw to the job site might need thin kerfs. I tried ripping both pine and oak with this blade. I thought the speed of cut was somewhat faster than the 24 tooth and the rips were, as is advertised, "glue line" ready. There wasn't any tearing or burning. I didn't try ripping any warped boards. I really like Freud blades and that is all I buy anymore except when I have a crude, non furniture, job like ripping deck boards. Then, I use the cheapest disposable I can find. I like the fact that Freud blades have recommendations printed on the side of the blade. That is, a blade may be good for crosscuts in general but not as good for melamine. So, if you are like me and have about 4 or 5 blades that you can choose from, you can choose the one that should give the best results for the material and type of cut. Just be careful when you are cleaning because the cleaner can remove all of the markings.

This is a great blade. I've always been a fan of Freud products for their quality, sharpness and durability. This blade did not disappoint. It rips cleanly and quickly. I was able to go directly to glue up from rip without having to joint or plane. The only reason I knocked off a star was that I could still see faint blade marks on the cut, and I know the purists would not be happy with that. But there was no problem with the glue up for me and the seams were clean.

I have been using the Freud Industrial blades for years and find them to be very good quality and a decent value compared to my Forrest blades. They stay sharp and this particular rip blade does a super job ripping hardwoods. I have done a lot of white oak during a recent project and the blade performed very well, stays sharp and like the name says, left a surface that was ready to glue!

I have purchased Freud Glue Line Rip blades in the past and have ALWAYS had great experience with them. they truly do leave a beautiful, smooth edge ready for glue. Great product and I highly recommend.

This blade lives up to its name. Super clean rip cuts. It's a bit thicker than my combo blade so have to remember to make a different zero clearance insert, but it's worth it.

I have not used this as much as I need to, but I was impressed with the quality. A heavy blade that runs very true. While I don't think you get a finish as smooth as a jointer, I agree that there is no need to use a jointer to do glue ups. On a higher end table saw it may produce a smoother cut, but I am impressed.

Fantastic and 100% happy

No la he pedido probar, me llego con dos dientes rotos, amazon me mando un remplazo y tambien traia un diente roto. Tengo otras hoja Freud y son lo mejor, pero el mosque en que la mandan es muy debil, deberian enviarlo en un fleje mas resistente.

When I bought it I needed a new table-saw blade. Cuts well - clean, smooth and easily.Lives up to Freud reputation. GLAD I bought it.

Good value for money
