A crosscut blade is a type of band saw blade or circular saw blade designed specifically for making crosscuts, which are cuts made across the grain of wood or other materials. Crosscut blades typically feature a higher tooth count and a more aggressive tooth geometry, such as an alternating top bevel (ATB) pattern, to provide a cleaner, smoother cut with reduced tear-out. Crosscut blades are commonly used in woodworking, carpentry, and construction for cutting lumber or sheet goods.
