Professional circular saw bladesFreud
A 19-code Freud family with high tooth counts for cleaner ripping and crosscutting of wood-based panels, from 150 to 600 mm.
Application
LU2B is the higher-tooth-count panel family, ranging from 36 teeth at 150 mm to 132 teeth at 600 mm. Smaller chip loads per tooth improve edge quality and reduce chipping, while requiring a more controlled feed rate and effective dust extraction.
Technical note
H00K carbide, 15° ATB tooth geometry and positive 10° hook angle for less aggressive entry than LU2A. Blades from 250 mm have anti-vibration slots. Check FT01 and FT02 pin-hole patterns against the machine flange.

Technical configuration
Shared family specifications, kept separate from the dimensions of each individual code.
H00K carbide, 15° ATB tooth geometry and positive 10° hook angle.
Specially formulated carbide tips for durability and cutting quality.
Coating designed to reduce friction, heat and material build-up.
Technology designed to reduce vibration and noise.
Operating parameters
The charts show how the recommended speed and cutting capacity change across the LU2B range.
Rotational speed
The actual speed must remain within the limits of both the blade and the machine.
Cutting capacity
This is a family-level reference; actual clearance and capacity also depend on the machine.
Essential check: before fitting the blade, check its diameter, bore, pin-hole pattern, direction of rotation and the maximum RPM marked on the blade.
Dimensional selector
Filter the variants by the two key dimensions, then compare kerf, plate thickness, tooth count and pin-hole patterns.

Before choosing
Once LU2B has been identified, the exact product code depends on the machine requirements. The portal keeps these two decisions separate.
Permitted diameter, bore and pin holes.
Ripping / Crosscutting.
Kerf, plate thickness and tooth count.
Speed and cutting height according to the family charts.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers for checking the application, compatibility and operating parameters before selecting a product code.
LU2B is designed for Ripping and Crosscutting. Its suitability must be checked against the material, machine and exact variant specifications.
The family is specified for Softwood, Hardwood, MDF, Chipboard, Plywood. Material density, coating, thickness and condition can affect the resulting edge quality. For LU2B, verify the selected reference within its 150–600 mm diameter and 36–132-tooth range.
The catalogue specifies Squaring saws, Hand-held circular saws, Horizontal panel sizing saws. Before fitting, check diameter, bore, flange or pin-hole pattern and the permitted maximum speed. For LU2B, verify the selected reference within its 150–600 mm diameter and 36–132-tooth range.
The family uses ATB 15° tooth geometry. Refer to the technical note for the carbide grade and hook angle. For LU2B, verify the selected reference within its 150–600 mm diameter and 36–132-tooth range.
There are 19 variants, with diameters from 150 to 600 mm, bores from 30 to 35 mm and tooth counts from 36 to 132. For LU2B, verify the selected reference within its 150–600 mm diameter and 36–132-tooth range.
For LU2B, start with the machine bore (30–35 mm) and the required diameter (150–600 mm). Then select within the available 36–132-tooth range by comparing kerf, plate thickness and any pin holes or keyways.
The correct speed for an LU2B blade depends on the selected diameter, which ranges from 150 to 600 mm, and on the machine. Never exceed the lower of the maximum RPM marked on that blade and the machine manufacturer’s limit.
A specialist can assess and resharpen the ATB carbide teeth used by LU2B, provided the blade body is undamaged. The original geometry, angles and balance must be preserved; the number of possible services depends on the condition of the selected reference.
