D X 10 mm Tungsten Carbide Framing Blade 16 teeth","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for professional framing and heavy-duty woodworking, the Milwaukee 5-3\/8 in. Tungsten Carbide Framing Blade with 16 teeth blends relentless sharpness with tough-material durability. If your project calls for clean, fast cuts through softwoods, hardwoods, and laminated panels, this blade keeps pace without frequent resharpening.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhy this blade stands out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrafted with tungsten carbide teeth, it attacks dense and abrasive materials—like treated lumber, wet lumber, plywood, OSB, and LVL—while maintaining edge life you can feel after a long day on the jobsite. The 16-tooth configuration delivers aggressive ripping and efficient cross-cuts, making it ideal for framing tasks where speed matters and precision is non-negotiable. ATB grind with a 15° hook angle optimizes chip evacuation and reduces binding, resulting in smoother cuts with less tearing in laminated woods.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eKey specifications at a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5-3\/8\" (136.5 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.04\" (1.0 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKerf:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.063\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth grind:\u003c\/strong\u003e ATB\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHook angle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15°\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax speed:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10,000 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArbor size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 mm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tungsten carbide\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eIdeal uses and practical applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade excels on construction lumber and laminated panels.

The combination of a wide 5-3\/8\" diameter and 10 mm arbor makes it compatible with many common framing and saw configurations, while the 0.063\" kerf minimizes resistance for quicker cuts with less heat buildup. This means fewer passes, less fatigue, and cleaner results on demanding framing jobs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eTips for best results\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eEnsure your saw can accommodate a 10 mm arbor and the 5-3\/8\" blade diameter.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUse a steady, controlled feed rate and let the blade do the work—avoid forcing the cut.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFor laminated and treated lumber, maintain a moderate cutting speed to balance heat and edge life.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eKeep blades clean and dry to preserve carbide edge and prolong life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Milwaukee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52272840802578,"sku":"2005804","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/1024\/8466\/files\/2005804_A.eps_High.jpg?v=1778782897","url":"https:\/\/nationalhardwaregroup.com\/products\/milwaukee-5-3-8-in-d-x-10-mm-tungsten-carbide-framing-blade-16-teeth","provider":"National Hardware Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
