Technical configuration
Shared family specifications, kept separate from the dimensions of each individual code.
H01K carbide, Triple chip grind (TCG) tooth geometry, -6° tooth angle.
Specially formulated carbide tips for durability and cutting quality.
Coating designed to reduce friction, heat and material build-up.

Operating parameters
The chart shows how the recommended speed changes across the LU5C 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 LU5C 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 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.
LU5C is designed for Cutting non-ferrous metals. Its suitability must be checked against the material, machine and exact variant specifications.
The family is specified for Aluminium, Copper and brass. Material density, coating, thickness and condition can affect the resulting edge quality. For LU5C, verify the selected reference within its 180–500 mm diameter and 42–120-tooth range.
The catalogue specifies Double mitre saws, Mitre saws. Before fitting, check diameter, bore, flange or pin-hole pattern and the permitted maximum speed. For LU5C, verify the selected reference within its 180–500 mm diameter and 42–120-tooth range.
The family uses Dente piano trapezio -6° tooth geometry. Refer to the technical note for the carbide grade and hook angle. For LU5C, verify the selected reference within its 180–500 mm diameter and 42–120-tooth range.
There are 28 variants, with diameters from 180 to 500 mm, bores from 20 to 50 mm and tooth counts from 42 to 120. For LU5C, verify the selected reference within its 180–500 mm diameter and 42–120-tooth range.
For LU5C, start with the machine bore (20–50 mm) and the required diameter (180–500 mm). Then select within the available 42–120-tooth range by comparing kerf, plate thickness and any pin holes or keyways.
The correct speed for an LU5C blade depends on the selected diameter, which ranges from 180 to 500 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 Dente piano trapezio carbide teeth used by LU5C, 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.
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.
