EAB 10″ x 28T Framing Green Blade
Tools EABThe EAB 10″ x 28T Framing Green Blade combines recycled tungsten carbide teeth with a 28-tooth ATB configuration built for framing work. Item# 1110112 is designed for lumber, plywood, particle board, and pressure-treated wood.
Recycled Carbide That Cuts Like New
The blade uses C2 Micrograin Carbide made from recycled tungsten carbide, proving you don’t need virgin materials for professional performance. Hardened steel plates (HRC-45) ensure longer service life and tip sharpening capability, with teeth sharpened on the top, face, and sides for cleaner, faster cuts.
Here’s what matters on the jobsite:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Diameter | 10 inches |
| Teeth Count | 28 |
| Tooth Configuration | ATB (Alternate Top Bevel) |
| Hook Angle | 15° |
| Arbor Size | 5/8 inch (standard for most 10” saws) |
| Max RPM | Up to 6,500 RPM (model 2110716) |
| Body Material | HRC-45 Hardened Steel Plates |
The 28-tooth ATB configuration with a 15° hook angle hits the sweet spot for framing work: aggressive enough for fast cuts through dimensional lumber without bogging down in pressure-treated material. This blade handles lumber, plywood, particle board, and pressure-treated wood, covering everything you’ll hit on a framing job.
Heat Management Without the Gimmicks
Laser-cut expansion slots manage heat and vibration during those long rip cuts that turn cheap blades into warped metal. No anti-kickback features, because experienced framers don’t need training wheels slowing down their cuts.
The blade runs clean up to 6,500 RPM, matching the speed range of every major circular saw and miter saw on the market. Compatible with both miter saws and table saws, though most framers will wear it out on their worm drive long before it sees a table saw.
The green finish signifies the eco-friendly line: chromium-free and fully recyclable once the blade reaches the end of its life. Montana contractors who haul their scrap metal to recycling centers can add these blades to the pile instead of the dumpster.
EAB positions this as a ‘good choice for light contractor and DIY framing and construction’, which sounds like marketing speak for “not their premium line.” Fair enough. This isn’t trying to compete with premium blades. It’s giving working contractors a blade that cuts straight and lasts reasonably well.
Installation and Compatibility
Basic mounting applies to any 10” blade:
- Ensure saw arbor is clean and matches the blade size (5/8”). Mount blade with arrow matching rotation direction. Ensure saw is unplugged before mounting.
- Test for vibration before full use.
The included items list shows just the blade itself: “10” x 28T Framing Green Saw Blade”. No storage case, no bonus items. Just a blade ready to work.
Bottom Line
This blade’s recyclable design cuts down on waste, which matters when you’re burning through blades all season.
Standard manufacturer’s warranty against defects applies, though no explicit long-term warranty is specified.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does recycled carbide compare to virgin carbide for cutting performance?
A: The C2 Micrograin Carbide uses recycled tungsten carbide processed to the same standards as virgin material. Combined with HRC-45 hardened steel plates and teeth sharpened on top, face, and sides, it delivers professional cutting performance while reducing environmental impact.
Q: Is this blade suitable for cutting metal studs?
A: No. This blade features a 28-tooth ATB (Alternate Top Bevel) configuration designed specifically for wood products. It’s rated for lumber, plywood, particle board, and pressure-treated wood. Metal cutting requires different tooth geometry and carbide grades.
Q: Can this blade be used on a compound miter saw?
A: Yes. The blade is compatible with both miter saws and table saws. The 5/8 inch arbor size is standard for most 10” saws, and the 6,500 RPM rating exceeds the speed of any 10” miter saw on the market.
