| About Tooth Geometry to Improve Cutting Finish | |
 |
Different tooth geometry allows the blade to improve the cutting finish second to the material being work. These are the general rules of thumb. • The flat tooth (Fig.7) is used on multirip saw blades, saw blades for portable machines and universal saw blades. |
 |
• The alternate top bevel (ATB) tooth (Fig.8) produces a fine cut, and is used on blades for crosscutting wood. |
 |
• The "triple chip" tooth (TCG) (Fig.9) is used on sawblades for cutting wood composite materials, aluminum and other plastic materials. |
 |
• The "conical tooth/alternate top bevel (ATB)" (Fig. 10) is used on scoring blades for cutting wood composite materials. |
