TiCo is a new specially formulated Titanium Cobalt Carbide designed to maximize performance on all Freud bits and blades. It is much smaller and more densely packed than other carbides on the market today, enabling the carbide teeth on Freud's blades, bits and cutters to last up to four times longer than standard products. Standard carbide is very large at around 4 -5 microns which leads to noticeable early wear. An advanced micro grain carbide can be as small as 1.0 microns, and wear is less evident. Freud has created a TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide that is just .6 - .8 microns and size. There’s even a Freud super density TiCo™ blend for an ultra sharp edge in laminate cutting applications, and measures at just .4 microns in size. Freud creates over 20 different blends of TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide designed specifically for each cutting application to maximize tool performance in any woodworking project.
Silver I.C.E. (Industrial Cooling Element) Coating is a revolutionary new coating that resists corrosion and resin or “pitch” build-up and resists heat twice as long as standard polished blades. Blades featuring Silver I.C.E.™ (Industrial Cooling Element) Coating resist corrosion, build-up and have 2 times more heat resistance and life than polished blades. Silver I.C.E Coating protects the blade from heat stress that can cause rapid loss of tension, which in turn causes blade warp, over heating and poor cut quality. Additionally, this coating reduces the possibility for pitch build-up, which further reduces the heat element responsible for drag on the motor. Less drag means longer tool life and longer blade life. Less pitch also means less down time for blade cleaning.
Titanium-Shield Coating is a state of the art aluminum/titanium coating option available only by Freud to dramatically prolong the life of panel saw blades by 7X over standard polished blades. Titanium Shield Coating virtually eliminates heat generated from friction. The coating envelops the blade plate and cutting edge in a protective layer resulting in complete thermal insulation in even the harshest conditions. Blades coated with Titanium Shield resist binding in large volume cutting, which reduces blade warp. This lubricating feature allows the blades to spin freely and reduce stress on the motor and saw carriage, in turn prolonging the life of the machine. Like Silver I.C.E., Titanium Shield eliminates pitch and debris build-up reducing down time for cleaning.
Silver I.C.E.Features the following Freud Advantages:
• Silver I.C.E. - keeps the blade cool and resists corrosion for 2X the cutting life of a standard polished blade.
• TiCo Hi-Density Laminate Sizing Carbide - designed specifically for panel sizing allows the tooth to maintain a sharp edge when cutting manmade materials, particularly laminates.
• Laser-Cut Blade Bodies - ensure superior stability and performance longevity
• Precision Tensioning - balances the centrifugal and thermal forces a blade endures during use, so it stays true under load
• Computer Balancing - ensures vibration-free cuts
• Laser-Cut Anti-Vibration Technology - virtually eliminates the sideways movement of a blade during operation for flawless cuts
• Kickback-reducing Design - reduces the effects of dangerous kickbacks, and aids in the production of a quality finish
• Super Square Tooth Design - produces a more precise cut, higher number of sharpenings and longer life between sharpenings.
