Hook angle refers to the angle at which the teeth meet the material. Negative hook angles (e.g., -2° or -5°) are considered best for radial arm saw blades because they minimize self-feeding and increase user control, leading to safer and smoother cuts. Products like AGE Series MD10-606TB (-5°) and Amana Tool RA1640 (-2°) are designed with negative hook angles for optimal safety and finish. With several hook angle options available, users can choose the level of aggressiveness and safety that suits their application.
