A hand-tensioned, hardened alloy steel body extends blade life and delivers the highest quality cuts available. Carbide tipped teeth with Alternate Top Bevel grind shear through metal leaving burr-free, cool-to-touch cuts. Designed for use with the M18 Cordless 5-3/8 in. Metal Saw, these blades feature a thin kerf that reduces the amount of drag and resistance while cutting, resulting in more cuts per charge.

The Milwaukee 10 inch 50 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.

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.

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.

This Milwaukee 12 inch carbide teeth X 60 saw blade cuts through wood like butter (but so does any new blade). It is flat and true. It should last a long time on my miter saw. I do wish the blade manufacturers would consider some other than white, red, etc paint as it does leave a mark on the wood many times that has to be sanded off. A clear coated or bare blade would be better.

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 12 inch 60 tooth blade works great in my saw for cutting aluminum extrusion. The cut is clean and straight and requires very little deburring. The carbide teeth are all attached straight and securely. The 1 inch arbor fits tight in the blade so there is no wobble. Make sure to check the speed of your saw so the blade doesn’t exceed the recommended RPMs.

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.

What an awesome blade! The Milwaukee brand is absolutely wonderful. 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!

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 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.

Here is a solution for getting straight cuts in metal. This blade is designed to be used in a cordless circular saw. The blade comes in mutiple arbor sizes: 5/8″ & 20mm. The teeth are designed for cutting medium to thick metal up to 1/2″ thick but will also be usable for aluminum and copper.Due to the design of the blade it should be used dry and will give nice clean cuts on bolts as well as sheet stock.

I discovered after I received this blade that it is rated for use with a saw having a maximum rotational speed of 2000 RPM. I had planned to mount it on my miter saw and to use it to cut 1/8” steel angle for a project I’ve started. Unfortunately, my saw has a no-load rotation speed of 3200 RPM, which exceeds the maximum recommended speed by 50%. I looked at the specs on several miter saws, both corded and battery powered, and all of them had rotational speeds in the 3000-4000 RPM range. And its diameter is too large for use on my table saw, which can be operated at speeds below 2000 RPM. I contacted Milwaukee customer support and I’m waiting to hear if they have a recommendation for a miter saw that can be used with the blade. §In the meantime, I can report that this is a beautifully crafted saw blade. The kerf is 3/32”. I appreciate that the product package can be used as protective storage for the blade when it’s not in use. §Professionally made in China.

Milwaukee carbide saw blade is all that and a bag of chips. Worth the extra $ for a milwaukee blade 48 teeth will make that clean cut that you always need. The blade will cut through wood, steel, aluminum. You can use it on wood but might wear out the blade. It will cut through plastic and copper as well but this blade is meant for medium metals and other applications listed on the packaging

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.

The MILWAUKEE 7 IN. X 48 CARBIDE TEETH metal cutting circular saw blade is designed to cut stainless steel, aluminum, and steel with a clean and smooth cut. Until we got this blade we were cutting metal with a jig saw or Sawzall, even tin snips, and this blade makes cutting metal smooth, cool, quick and consistent. Use it in a chop saw or circular saw.

This is a great metal-cutting blade for any circular saw. I used it to cut sheet metal for a pole barn I am building, and this blade (in combination with my Milwaukee cordless circular saw) was definitely up for the job. It cut through the sheet metal with ease, and left a nice clean edge on the sheets of steel. As with any metal-cutting job, make sure to wear gloves and eye protection, because this blade produces a lot of hot shavings (as expected). Also be careful to not throw away the arbor adapter that comes with the blade. The 20mm arbor hole was too large for my saw, so I had to dig through the trash to find the clear arbor adapter that was included.
