Tools and Hardware Reviews of Freud SD506 6-Inch Super Dado Set with Anti-Kickback Design
Customer Review: Infinitely adjustable, yet easy to use.
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used this extensively on my Grizzly 1023 table saw with great results. I would highly recommend this blade set to anyone. My advice on using it:
* when you unbox the blades, measure the chipper thicknesses and label them "A", "B", "C", etc., according to the manual. There one that's thinner than the others, and it is required for certain thickness combinations; identifying it by sight is almost impossible. I wrote on them in silver Sharpie and it solved that problem.
* mark the "zero" on the thickness adjusting dial. Turn it until the back of the dial is perfectly flush with the back of the blade and write a "0" above that tick mark (again, silver Sharpie works great). That way, when the manual says "a 1/2 inch dado is these three blades plus four clicks" you'll know that you're really at four and not, say, three or five.

About Freud's Dado Sets
Whether you're a skilled professional or a weekend hobbyist, Freud has a dado for you. The SD608, Freud's Dial-A-Width Dado, has a patented dial system for easy and precise adjustments while offering extremely accurate cuts. The SD300 Series adds a level of safety not found in other manufacturers' dadoes, while the SD200 Series provides the quality of cuts you expect from Freud, at an attractive price.
About this Super Dado Set
The 20-tooth, negative hook angle on the Freud 6-inch chip-free dado blade set helps prevent chipping when cutting plywood, and also gives a high accuracy and a smooth finish when cutting hard and softwoods. The set can be used on all table and radial-arm saws for cutting slots, grooves, dadoes, and rabbets. The blade works great on plywoods and allows you to cut dadoes that fit materials with less shimming. Additionally, with laser-cut, carbide tips, the blades have a square-Tooth design that reduces drag in the cut and also reduces the material's guiding effect, for a more precise cut. The blades also offer maximum chip ejection, which help prevents chip build-up within the stack.

Applications
The SD500 Series of dado sets cuts everything from veneered plywoods and laminates to solid wood, chip and splinter-free with a super smooth, flat bottom. Use this set on all table saws, and radial arm saws for cutting slots, grooves, dadoes, and rabbets in softwood or hardwood.
Warranty
This stacked dado set is covered by Freud's limited lifetime warranty.
The 20-tooth, negative hook angle on Freud's Super Dado stack helps prevent chipping when cutting plywood, and it also gives you high accuracy and a smooth finish when cutting hard and softwoods. The set can be used on all table and radial-arm saws for cutting slots, grooves, dadoes, and rabbets. The set also includes a 3/32-inch chipper, which is nice because many types of plywood are being manufactured 1/32 of an inch less than the nominal size; it works great on plywoods and allows you to cut dadoes that fit these materials with less shimming. "Laser-cut with carbide tips, these blades have a square tooth design that reduces drag in the cut and also reduces the material's guiding effect, while at the same time increasing the number of possible sharpenings. And by eliminating the hub and developing a gullet design, you get maximum chip ejection, which prevents chip buildup within the stack. The results, to put it simply, are impressive: supersmooth dadoes, both the sides and bottom. --Dori Anvinson
