Professional circular saw bladesFreud
A 34-code Freud family for aluminium, copper, brass, plastics and PVC on double mitre saws and CNC units, from 200 to 600 mm.
Application
LU5B covers 34 configurations from 200 to 600 mm, with 30–75 mm bores and 64–156 teeth. It is intended for 2–5 mm solid profiles and polymer panels up to 20 mm, and is specifically recommended for PVC profiles. Its 5° hook angle provides less aggressive engagement on thin sections and plastics.
Technical note
H01K carbide, TCG tooth geometry and positive 5° hook angle. The catalogue specifies 2–5 mm solid profiles and polymer panels up to 20 mm. Control heat when cutting PVC and verify the machine-specific pin-hole pattern before fitting.
Compatibility at a glance
01 Compatible machines
02 Suitable materials
Always check the pin-hole pattern
Technical configuration
Shared family specifications, kept separate from the dimensions of each individual code.
H01K carbide, TCG tooth geometry and positive 5° 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 chart shows how the recommended speed changes across the LU5B range.
Rotational speed
The actual speed must remain within the limits of both the blade and 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 LU5B 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.
Cutting plastic materials / Cutting non-ferrous metals.
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.
LU5B is designed for cutting non-ferrous metals and plastic materials. Match the exact variant to the material, machine and section thickness.
The catalogue specifies aluminium, copper, brass, plastic materials and PVC. Alloy, surface condition and wall thickness all affect the result. For LU5B, verify the selected reference within its 200–600 mm diameter and 64–156-tooth range.
The family is intended for double mitre saws and CNC units. Check bore, flanges, drive-hole pattern and permitted maximum speed before fitting. For LU5B, verify the selected reference within its 200–600 mm diameter and 64–156-tooth range.
It uses H01K carbide, TCG tooth geometry and a positive 5° hook angle. For LU5B, verify the selected reference within its 200–600 mm diameter and 64–156-tooth range.
There are 34 codes with 200–600 mm diameters, 30–75 mm bores and 64–156 teeth. Start selection with the machine diameter and bore. For LU5B, verify the selected reference within its 200–600 mm diameter and 64–156-tooth range.
LU5A covers 2–10 mm solid profiles with a 10° hook angle. LU5B covers 2–5 mm profiles and polymer panels up to 20 mm with a gentler 5° angle, and is specified for PVC profiles.
Yes. The catalogue rates it for aluminium, copper, brass and PVC, as well as plastic materials generally, making it useful where both alloy and PVC profiles are processed. For LU5B, verify the selected reference within its 200–600 mm diameter and 64–156-tooth range.
A specialist can resharpen the carbide teeth while preserving geometry, angles and balance, after checking the blade body for damage. For LU5B, verify the selected reference within its 200–600 mm diameter and 64–156-tooth range.
Guides
The catalogue starts with the tool; the guides start with the cutting problem. If you are still choosing, read these first.
A soft metal that behaves like a difficult material. The challenge is not making it cut, but preventing it from adhering to the tooth.
