   This is an excellent Milwaukee 6-7/8 in. Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade for cutting steel, aluminum, strut, all thread, or angle iron. This carbide blade can cut medium thick material 1/16 to ¼ inch thick. It can be used with the Milwaukee cordless handheld circular saw. It has cobalt infused tungsten carbide teeth and laser cut vibration slots.

   This Milwaukie carbide saw blade is really nice. It cuts clean and says it cuts cooler, although I hadn’t noticed either way on that. This blade is recommended for cutting 1/4″ – 1/8″ medium metal. It has a longer blade life compared to previous generations of Milwaukie circular saw blades. Instructions are written in English, Spanish and French. Recommended use for hand held circular saws. Made in China.

   This is an awesome blade if you cut a lot of aluminum. I swapped it out on my table saw but don’t do a whole lot of cuts generally. It might make more sense on a shop saw in a metal shop.Blade is a steel reinforced blade and does make very nice clean cuts. If I could change anything about the product it’d be greener packaging, as it’s encased in the usual non recyclable plastic stuff that’s also hard to even cut the blade out of.

   I have used a few metal-cutting blades in the past, but this is one of the smoothest I have seen. As you can see from the pictures below, the faces of the cuts almost have a ‘polished’ appearance. The have a very smooth and clean look, with no secondary cleanup required. When welding the pieces, all I had to do was bevel the edge and I was ready to go.The blade has a 1″ arbor, which fits most metal-cutting saws It even fits my old Makita ‘grinder’ chop with no adapters required. You can go from throwing sparks all over your workshop to a clean, almost spark-free cut by just replacing the blade.I made about 20 cuts using light pressure, and each one turned out beautiful. I don’t know how long it will last, but I’m sold on it for sure.

   The Milwaukee brand is absolutely wonderful. What an awesome blade! My husband wears the other brands out much more quickly than these. They seem to last so much longer and he says that they stay very sharp for a really long time.You can’t go wrong with this blade as it is exactly what is advertised. Strong, sharp and fits the saw perfectly!

   I picked up this blade not so much for metal work because I don’t do much metal work but to try it for quality in my 10″ miter saw. I figured if it cut metal with no problem it may last longer on wood. The teeth on this blade are not ripping teeth and gave me some doubts but after trying the blade on some wood trim it performed very well. I Think I can honestly say it outperformed all other blades I have ever used. I am very happy with my decision to use it.

   I have been a builder and remodeler for 50 years, and as such I have had many occasions where I had to cut metals. But while I could use other tools like a grinder or others, often it is easier if I an just use the tools I already have at hand. For example, a miter saw. That’s why I like this MILWAUKEE 10 IN. X 50 CARBIDE TEETH METAL CUTTING CIRCULAR SAW BLADE. I recently used it to cut some stainless steel all thread, and it cuts cleaner and easier than a grinder.

   The Milwaukee 7-1/4 x 48 carbide teeth metal cutting circular saw blade with the 20 mm arbor required an arbor adapter to fit my Skilsaw. The saw and blade then made a very easy job of make angle cuts on the aluminum hand rail. Since the rail was to be used on steps ,I has to cut the ends to a particular angle. I had previously used a hack saw to cut the angles, but, it was difficult to securely hold the rail while cutting the aluminum. This blade amounted in a circular made the job extremely simple and more accurate, using only a simple clamp to hold the rail down.

   Milwaukee 7-1/4 in. x 48 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Bladeit was so easy to use this saw blade I am so happy with it. It has worked great for me so far and the next time I need it I know I can count on it to work great again. When using it on a 5/8” arbor on my angle grinder it worked perfectly with no complaints whatsoever.I cut out a frozen section of black pipe and it cut through it like a hot knife through butter. When I used it to cut some 1/8” thick steel tubing and I just cut a bit slower and this blade worked great. I have nothing but good things to say about Milwaukee Tools.I highly recommend this saw blade for most of your metal cutting needs.

    The Milwaukee 6 1/2 inch 48 carbide teeth metal cutting circular saw blade is well made and designed to get the job done. It is rated for cutting steel and aluminum in medium 1/16 to 3/16 thickness. I found it to adequate for the job and easy to work with. I especially liked the packaging that provides easy removal from the plastic sleeve and easy storage after use.

    We have had a lot of square metal channels to cut and doing it by hand with a hacksaw was wearing my husband out. We decided to see if we could find a way to use one of our existing power tools to cut them faster and better. We found this specialized and fairly rare blade nine inches in diameter with a 1 inch arbor. Commercially, we sense that the blade is primarily used with a high end cut off saw. We are now using this blade to cut all our metal projects, and we could not be more pleased. It cuts so easily. The cut is extremely smooth. And most shocking to us, the metal and the blade stay cool. Based on the number of cuts we have already made, along with looking at the condition of the blade, we are predicting that it will stay sharp and cutting smooth for a long time.

    The Milwaukee 7-1/4 inch metal blade is an absolute pleasure to use.I am mending some gutters that have become worn and was using a hack saw to cut the gutters.This metal cutting blade is a godsend. Slices through aluminun gutters like butter!I am using the Milwaukee metal blade in my Ridgid cordless circular saw and the blade leaves a very clean cut. Now I’m only cutting through thin metal right now, and so far I’m extremely pleased with the cut quality of the blade.This blade is rated to slice through angle iron and metal up to half an inch thick. Holy moly, can’t wait to use this blade on my other projects at the farm house! I’ll probably use it cut down some iron rods to shape a barn door stop rod I’ve been meaning to make for ages!I am very pleased with this blade.HIghly recommended.

    I only use MILWAUKEE 7-1/4 IN. X 48 CARBIDE TEETH METAL CUTTING CIRCULAR SAW BLADE for any medium to heavy metal cutting job I have. The cobalt infused tungsten carbide has laser cut vibration holes (see closeup photo of blade) that keeps the blade from wobbling and warping. I really like the fact that these blades don’t get as hot as others tend to do and they last much longer than any other brand I’ve tried. I highly recommend these. TIP: wear proper eye protection when cutting metal.

    Milwaukee 6-1/2 in. x 48 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade Love these tool replacements from them. I totally burnt up my last blade on my battery operated power saw on a previous job or two. Found this one which had multiple serious cutting teeth that actually fit on my saw. This is truly a universal blade and top quality as well. Makes short work of my cutting projects. Just make sure the circumference matches you saw dimensions and it bolts right up and ready for use.

    Blade cuts through 14 gauge steel like butter.This Milwaukee 10 inch metal cutting blade cuts through 14 gauge steel like butter. It easily handles the steel cutting task.There is minimal sparking, very little sparking occurs.The noise is not too loud, you can hear it, but it is really not that much louder than cutting wood.One should never become complacent when cutting steel, but this blade makes it so easy that you are almost reminded of cutting wood.The ends of the cut metal have almost no burrs on them.We give it 5 stars since it works very well for the task of metal cutting.

    I used this blade to cut a steel 1/2 inch pipe. The blade made a straight and accurate cut with a little debris coming of the blade. Recommend glasses and ear protection since the blade is throwing pieces when cutting through steel. I placed the blade on a circular saw and my only suggestion is that they put a notch so it sits better on the saw. The blade is rated for thin through thick metal, stainless steel, aluminum, copper and fiberglass. I wish they made this in the USA, not China.

    Cuts 1/8” aluminum well, fits nicely on a Ryobi 7” brushless circular saw. My tools are Ryobi, with all my batteries, so I wanted this blade on my existing saw. The Ryobi has a smaller mounting hole than this saw blade, but luckily provides a beveled washer/arbor to accommodate different hole sizes. The blade cut both aluminum 1/8 sheet and 3/16” angle easily enough. I would recommend this for cutting at a job site or for oversized items that can’t easily fit into a bandsaw. Compared to my 10” cross-cut saw, this has a thinner kerf. My video shows how to change the blade on a Ryobi saw (many other brands operate the same way) and demonstrate an actual aluminum plate cut.

    This Milwaukee 9 in. x 48 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade is a longer life high-quality blade for cutting steel, aluminum, strut, all thread, or angle iron. This blade can cut medium thick material 1/16 to 3/16 inch thick. It can be used with the Milwaukee corded handheld saw. It has cobalt infused tungsten carbide teeth and laser cut vibration slots.

    I must confess while I have used a circular saw to build my garage storage shelves, I don’t know much about the different size blades that are available. When I ordered this 6-7/8 inch blade, I expected it to fit what I considered a normal sized consumer saw, I was wrong. After going through three different brands of saws, including a cordless, I had no luck mounting the blade. As my neighbor mentioned it doesn’t say on the packaging what type of saw you need for this blade. The packaging does say 6-7/8 inch with an arbor (center opening) of 20 mm. We both thought it would replace a 7 inch blade. Maybe he and I are the only ones that think that way, I surely hope so.What I can tell you about the blade is that it comes in an easy to open blister pack. As it does not include any kind of tooth guard you’ll need this blister pack to store your blade. Despite being a 36 tooth blade the packaging claims it will cut plastic and fiberglass. Usually these material require a blade with 50 to 60 tooth. It includes 4 laser cut vibration slots, and the Colbalt infused tungsten carbide tip allows for cooler running. A close inspection of the blade reveals nicks and scratch marks behind most of the blade tips varying from almost non-existent to heavy. I would not expect this to have any impact on cutting but was surprised at the randomness of the markings. The packaging claims it is a metal cutting blade, but it is only stated on the back side that this blade is not recommended for stainless steel. It is also only on the back that it states for “use with cordless handheld saw”. Approved metals for cutting include aluminum, copper, brass and medium metal (1/8″ – 1/4″).Before purchasing, make sure you know exactly what blade size and arbor your circular saw accepts.

    The Milwaukee 7 1/4 inch x 48 carbide teeth metal cutting circular saw blade with 20 mm arbor appears to be a heavy duty quality saw blade. My husband could not use it because of the 20 mm arbor. It doesn’t fit any of his Ryobi circular saws. He stated that if he had a grommet, he probably would have been able to use it. My suggestion is to pay attention to the arbor sizes when purchasing saw blades.
