Description

Diablo D1296N 12" 96 Tooth Saw Blade for Medium Aluminum

Surgical Precision for Non-Ferrous Metals.

The Diablo D1296N 12" Aluminum Cutting Blade is a next-generation solution for cutting medium-thickness non-ferrous metals (3/32” to 1/4”). Engineered with TiCo Super-Density Micro-Grain Carbide, this blade is specifically formulated to withstand the high-impact nature of metal cutting while maintaining a sharp edge significantly longer than standard carbide blades.

The specialized Triple Chip Grind (TCG) tooth geometry delivers clean, burr-free finishes, virtually eliminating the need for secondary rework. To ensure maximum stability, the blade features laser-cut stabilizer vents that trap noise and vibration, preventing blade "wander" and ensuring a straight, accurate cut every time. Whether you are cutting aluminum extrusions, copper pipe, or brass plate, the D1296N provides the durability and precision required for industrial-grade fabrication.

Key Performance Features:

  • TiCo Super-Density Carbide: High-performance carbide formulation provides extreme cutting life and clog-free performance in aluminum.
  • Triple Chip Grind (TCG): Unique tooth design creates a clean, professional finish in abrasive non-ferrous materials and plastics.
  • Tri-Metal Shock Resistant Brazing: Allows the carbide tips to withstand extreme impact for maximum durability on the job site.
  • Perma-SHIELD Non-Stick Coating: Protects the blade against heat, gumming, and corrosion, extending overall blade life.
  • Laser-Cut Stabilizer Vents: Reduces vibration and heat buildup for more accurate cuts and a quieter work environment.
  • Universal Compatibility: Optimized for 12" miter saws, slide miter saws, and table saws with a 1" arbor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this blade to cut standard wood? +
While it can cut wood, it is not recommended for general woodworking. The -5° hook angle and Triple Chip Grind are optimized for non-ferrous metals and plastics. Using it on wood may result in a slower feed rate and increased heat compared to a dedicated wood blade.
What materials is this blade "ideal" for? +
The D1296N is specifically designed for non-ferrous metals such as aluminum extrusions, copper pipe, and brass plate. It is also excellent for cutting plastics, melamine, and laminate flooring.
Do I need to use wax or lubricant when cutting aluminum? +
Although the Perma-SHIELD coating reduces friction and gumming, using a dedicated blade wax or lubricant is always recommended when cutting aluminum to prevent material "welding" to the teeth and to ensure the smoothest possible finish.
