Operating parameters

Diameter and RPM

The chart shows how the recommended speed changes across the LU5D range.

Rotational speed LU5D

Rotational speed

The recommended RPM range decreases as blade diameter increases.

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.

Before choosing

The blade family is only the first step

Once LU5D has been identified, the exact product code depends on the machine requirements. The portal keeps these two decisions separate.

  1. 1
    Check the machine

    Permitted diameter, bore and pin holes.

  2. 2
    Confirm the application

    Cutting plastic materials / Cutting non-ferrous metals.

  3. 3
    Choose the variant

    Kerf, plate thickness and tooth count.

  4. 4
    Check the operating parameters

    Speed and cutting height according to the family charts.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about the LU5D family

Quick answers for checking the application, compatibility and operating parameters before selecting a product code.

01 What is the LU5D family designed for?

LU5D is designed for Cutting plastic materials and Cutting non-ferrous metals. Its suitability must be checked against the material, machine and exact variant specifications.

02 Which materials can LU5D cut?

The family is specified for Plastic materials, Aluminium, Copper and brass, PVC. Material density, coating, thickness and condition can affect the resulting edge quality. For LU5D, verify the selected reference within its 160–500 mm diameter and 42–140-tooth range.

03 Which machines can use LU5D blades?

The catalogue specifies Double mitre saws, Mitre saws. Before fitting, check diameter, bore, flange or pin-hole pattern and the permitted maximum speed. For LU5D, verify the selected reference within its 160–500 mm diameter and 42–140-tooth range.

04 What tooth geometry does LU5D use?

The family uses Dente piano trapezio -6° tooth geometry. Refer to the technical note for the carbide grade and hook angle. For LU5D, verify the selected reference within its 160–500 mm diameter and 42–140-tooth range.

05 How many LU5D variants are available?

There are 29 variants, with diameters from 160 to 500 mm, bores from 20 to 50 mm and tooth counts from 42 to 140. For LU5D, verify the selected reference within its 160–500 mm diameter and 42–140-tooth range.

06 How do I select the correct LU5D code?

For LU5D, start with the machine bore (20–50 mm) and the required diameter (160–500 mm). Then select within the available 42–140-tooth range by comparing kerf, plate thickness and any pin holes or keyways.

07 At what speed should a LU5D blade run?

The correct speed for an LU5D blade depends on the selected diameter, which ranges from 160 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.

08 Can LU5D blades be resharpened?

A specialist can assess and resharpen the Dente piano trapezio carbide teeth used by LU5D, 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.
