Frequently Asked Questions
What Freud Tools products does Windsor Plywood carry?
Windsor Plywood carries Freud Diablo saw blades and Freud Forstner bits. The Diablo saw blade line includes general-purpose, fine-finish, framing, and specialty configurations using TiCo Hi-Density Carbide with Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating. Freud Forstner bits feature precision-ground carbide cutting edges for clean flat-bottomed bores in wood.
What makes Freud Diablo blades different from standard saw blades?
Freud Diablo blades use a proprietary TiCo Hi-Density Carbide that is harder and more impact-resistant than standard carbide grades, combined with a Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating that reduces friction and heat buildup, and laser-cut stabilizer vents that reduce vibration during cutting. The result is a blade that stays sharper longer and produces cleaner cuts under demanding conditions.
What Diablo blade tooth count should I choose for trim and moulding work?
For cutting trim, moulding, and other finish work where cut quality matters, use a 60 to 80-tooth Diablo blade. Higher tooth counts produce finer cuts with less tearout on the wood surface. A 24-tooth blade is optimized for fast ripping in framing lumber where cut quality is less critical.
What size Freud Forstner bit do I need for European cabinet hinges?
Standard European cabinet hinges including Blum CLIP top require a 35mm Forstner bit bored to approximately 12 to 13mm depth. Freud Forstner bits are available in 35mm for this application. Confirm the exact bore depth specified by your hinge manufacturer before drilling.
