CMT’s Industrial Thin Kerf Design is ideal for ripping applications, since the blade removes less material, putting less strain on the blade and your saw. That translates into less heat build-up during the cut, so you’ll get more cuts between resharpenings, and longer life from your tools. These blades feature the finest micrograin carbide teeth in a combination of one flat-top tooth followed by a pair of 15 degree alternating top bevel teeth. And of course, they include all the other great ITK features, including Anti-Kickback Design, Tri-Metal Brazing, Precision Balancing, Laser Cut Arbors and carefully positioned Expansion Slots and Sound Dampening Channels. ITK blades also include CMT’s unique laser-marked safety instructions and complete, illustrated resharpening information.
