If you need a quick method for cutting soft metal like copper, aluminum, medium metal 1/8 to 1/4 inch and plastic or fiberglass this is the blade. I would recommend wearing eye protection and even long sleeve shirts and pants as the blade can throw small bits off when cutting the materials mentioned. I obtained to cut fiberglass roofing on a patio and am waiting on cooler weather to use. The blade cut thru the copper like it was butter so I know it will handle the fiberglass with ease.

I received the MILWAUKEE 9 IN. X 72 CARBIDE TEETH METAL CUTTING CIRCULAR SAW BLADE to test for The Home Depot. I used it with my sliding miter saw to cut standing seam roofing for my pergola and it worked great! Ran through the pieces like butter. What i really liked is the packaging. It is perforated for opening so that it can be used for storage as well. Simple but a great idea.

Cuts like hot knife through butter! No burrs No jagged metal works like a charm in metal cutting saw!

My impression of this saw blade is excellent. I received this and put it into my portable saw, which worked as the blade is 6 1/2,” and my saw is made for a 7 1/4″ saw blade. I wanted to see if the battery saw would cut through a steel door. The advertising on the package states this blade will cut brass, copper, plastics, fiberglass, and aluminum! What is doesn’t say is it will cut steel. Well, they missed that when they printed the label because I installed a new door for a customer and decided to try to cut her old steel door so it would fit in her trash can. It cut like butter, with a beautiful smooth cut line. Word of warning, though, wear goggles because it will spray metal shavings at you. I expected some shavings but not as much as was sprayed at my face and chest. Do not attempt this without face protection. This is my new go to metal cutting saw blade.

I have been a builder and remodeler for 50 years, and as such I have had many occasions where I had to cut aluminum and plastics. But while I could use other blades like a wood blade or others, often it is better if I an just use the blades made to cut the material. For example, this MILWAUKEE 10 IN. X 80 CARBIDE TEETH METAL CUTTING CIRCULAR SAW BLADE. I recently used it to cut some aluminum and also some PVC trim, and it cuts cleaner and easier than a wood blade.

The Milwaukee seven and a quarter inch (7 ¼”) by fifty-six (56) tooth carbide metal cutting circular saw blade is capable of cutting brass, aluminum, fiberglass, copper , vinyl, and any nonferrous metals up to a quarter inch (1/4”) (6.4 mm) thick. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES! as this does throw minute shavings. One note is that the cut material is not hot to the touch after cutting and no oil is required during cutting operation.

This Milwaukee 5 7/8” diameter 50 tooth aluminum cutting blade powers through aluminum sheet and angle like cutting through wood. The resulting kerf is precise, clean and smooth. I do not own a hand held circular saw with a 20mm arbor so I made an adapter to use this blade. I used this in a corded 7” hand held circular saw to try it out and had great results. In the past I have used either a jigsaw or reciprocating saw to make these cuts and then had to clean them up by filing or grinding. Very difficult to get a long smooth straight cut that way. This is a very nice and welcome addition to my workshop. It would have been nice if the packaging could be more easily reused for storage between uses. It is very difficult to initially remove the blade from the package and getting the blade in and out through the opening made in the back of the package is difficult when using it for storage.

My husband freaked when he saw that I got him this blade for his saw. He’s been wanting it for a long time. The carbide tips on the blade make it perfect for cutting steel… So I am told! He said it cut cleanly with no metal burrs left behind soeso ha happy guy! Also he said this one is special since there’s no lubrication needed and the cuts stay cool.

The Milwaukee Brand, 7 in. x 54 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade is designed for cutting soft metals and plastics. My interest in trying this blade on my metal cutting circular saw was to cut aluminum as aluminum is a very difficult metal to machine cleanly. If ever having used a file on aluminum, the file teeth will load and plug almost immediately. Plastics I have cut successfully with a standard circular saw and a fine-tooth carbide wood cutting blade. And Pipe I use for plumbing, I prefer to cut with a pipe or tubing cutter to avoid getting chips inside the pipe. Milwaukee’s 2-3/8 in. Ratcheting Pipe Cutter, Cuts PVC, CPVC, PEX, Rubber Hose, ABS cleanly and squarely with amazing ease and speed. However, be sure to check the rotational speed of any circular saw before installing this metal cutting blade on it as the blade has a maximum safe speed rating of 4,500 RPM. Most circular saws not designed for cutting metal have speeds well in excess of 5,000 RPM. I do not have any aluminum projects going at this time, yet I did try the blade on some aluminum I had in the workshop and it cut or rather machined, the aluminum as clean as a whistle. Perhaps not as polished as steel cutting saw blades achieve, yet beautifully clean and finished non the less. The 7-inch blade produced cuts though aluminum as deep as 2-inches on my metal cutting circular saw. However, other saws may cut deeper with this blade as my saw accepts blades larger than 7-inches. The package the blade comes in is designed, if carefully opened from the back to be used for storing the saw blade when not using it on the saw. I thought that packaging usefulness on Milwaukee’s part is just one example of the refinement that goes into all the tools and products Milwaukee make.

This Milwaukee Metal Cutting Saw blade actually needed to list Non-Ferrous Blade in its listing. As for its cutting ability it is actually very good for aluminum, copper, brass, fiberglass and most plastics. For a 14-inch blade with a 1-inch arbor it will fit a chop miter saw or a powered cut-off saw. The cut-off saws now come in gas or battery powered units. If you are working in an aluminum fabrication shop this would be a must have because the cuts are that clean, needing no additional preparation to go to the TIG welder. The other materials are generally cut by miter saws only in pre-fab home construction on a demanding basis that would call for this blade. In my case using a blade like this with such a narrow material base does not compare. There are too many blades in this size range that will cut all of these materials PLUS ferrous metals (iron & steels), along with woods. The pictures below would have shown a complete comparison of the blade cuts; however, my neighbor took his Aluminum and Copper blocks that were cut back before I hand a chance to get the picture, due to a call back to work. The cuts were however, extremely clean for both saw blades. This blade is an excellent choice for the fabrication professionals who do not use wood or ferrous metals. For that reason and those areas only would you find this blade an excellent choice.

“Metal” Cutting?For SOFT METALS, this blade works well. I tested it on an aluminum threshold. Not only did it cut cleanly, (see photo) but the aluminum was cool-to-the-touch afterwards.Later I tested it on PVC pipe and PVC stair balusters. It cut those soft materials easily, as you would expect. Although I recommend faster feed-speed for plastic materials because slow-feed can cause plastic to melt. This blade is thin. That’s why it can claim to be “optimized for cordless” saws. The idea is simple; A thin blade requires less force to cut stuff, and therefore, uses less battery power. However, cutting SOFT metals is not very demanding. It’s often LESS demanding than cutting wood. You’d have to cut a LOT of thick aluminum before depleting any decent battery. Therefore, the “optimized for cordless tools” meme is largely irrelevant. That brings me to the only criticisms I have, which are NOT about the blade itself, but the WAY it is described on the HD website and the blade. Instead of saying it is a “metal cutting blade,” the product description should say “for SOFT metals,” or say “for NON-FERROUS metals.” But it DOES NOT say that in the description. That only says, “Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade.”To be fair, if you look VERY closely on a LARGE monitor, it says “Aluminum” right on the product photo, AND in some tiny side-bar photographs.But if you only read the product description you would NOT know this is ONLY for SOFT NON-FERROUS metals. And if you quickly viewed these product photos on a small phone, you could easily be led astray.I offer that information to help others avoid mistakes.Another point of contention is the advertising statement: “Optimized for cordless AND corded performance.”That makes NO sense. There ARE ONLY TWO types of power saws: 1-corded, and 2-cordless. It cannot be “optimized” for BOTH. That is as silly as saying, [This heater is] “…ideal for large AND small rooms.” Although a thin blade may require less power to use, it cannot make electric current from your outlets last longer. It can “be optimized” for one, or the other, but NOT both. That’s what “optimized” means!But to say it is “optimized” for BOTH types of tools is a confusing corruption of language and logic. Likewise, there is no need to say these are “professionally” made in China. The term “professional” means work is done to earn wages. ALL commercial products are made “professionally” in that sense. Adding that unnecessary term does NOT fool intelligent readers into believing these are inherently better than other blades that simply and honestly say, “Made in China.”It would serve Milwaukee well to hire advertising people who don’t confuse customers with silly illogical statements, or deceptive superfluous verbiage. After all, we KNOW that the appearance of a product package is important for favorable marketing images. So you KNOW that many people had to READ those words before the final design was approved. Yet apparently nobody noticed these glaring illogical statements. Hire anyone who reads English at a fourth-grade level to proofread your ad copy and product descriptions. Get someone to view these webpages on a modern mobile device so they can SEE what customers might see. Apart from the misleading product description, the light grey lettering on a white blade against a white background which is hard to see on a small screen, and that nonsensical advertising fluff, I can recommend this blade for SOFT NON-FERROUS metals like Aluminum, Copper and Brass. This blade could be used for PVC plastics in a pinch, but there are other blades specifically designed or “optimized” for those materials because they prevent melting. In fairness to Home Depot and other Chinese blades, you should search the normally excellent Home Depot website for “aluminum cutting circular saw blade.” There you will find other SOFT METAL cutting blades that are not only labeled correctly, but cost much less.

I was extremely impressed by the quality of 12 inch circular saw blade. The cobalt infused tungsten carbide cutting tips cuts real well into almost any kind of metal, plastics and fiberglass. I use it to cut pvc piping and will probably last my lifetime. It also works extremely well on cutting fiberglass that I use on my shower wall. What makes this blade special is that there is no vibration because of the vibration slots placed strategically into the blade. I have one picture showing these holes with the use of a pencil. No need to worry about heat buildup because this blade cuts very cool. I got the blade with this many teeth because there are no/little burrs so I don’t have to bother with sanding. Excellent value if you use this type blade often.

Cuts very clean on metal roof panels and trim. I love the blade and the saw. This system saves so much time!

Excellent blade for cutting brass/light metals. This blade ripped through brass pipe with ease and without sharp edges – barely had to sand it down. Zero vibration while cutting! No heat or hot shards flying out – keeps it “cool” when cutting. 54 teeth provide this blade with smooth cutting and very few shards flying. Not recommended for 18-20v power tools, but with corded saw – this blade is a dream to cut light metal. It’s made in China, but with professional grade and according to Milwaukee standards. High level of confidence that this product will last. This blade is intended for light metals AND plastic/fiberglass. A perfect tungsten/carbide blade for one’s tool box! RECOMMEND!!! A+

Once I finally “liberated” the MILWAUKEE CIRCULAR SAW BLADE from it excessive packaging, everything else was easy-peasy!The blade installed easily. Of course, I did install the blade backwards on my saw. Thank goodness for the arrows, huh?The blade cuts well. It replaces a Milwaukee 60-tooth blade, so I did notice cleaner cuts when I used it on wood and aluminum.
