Meet the Freud LU98R010 10" single-sided laminate/melamine blade—engineered for a flawless finish on one side of laminates and melamines. This blade is a dedicated solution for professionals who value clean, precise edging in a single pass.

• Perma-SHIELD coating: a friction- and heat-resistant finish that helps you stay cooler during cuts, reduces edge scorching, and extends blade life.
• Reduced blade pull: coated blades pull 1/3 less on the saw, delivering about 33% more cutting power for faster, smoother performance.
• Optimized geometry: a 5° hook angle paired with a triple chip grind—designed for fast cuts, reduced chipping, and long cutting life on laminate and melamine surfaces.
• 10-inch, single-sided laminate/melamine blade: specifically tuned to produce a pristine finish on one face, ideal for edge treatments and panel work.
