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+

I can use this 9″ blade on my table saw with no problems. It cuts thru the aluminum all day and never seems to get dull. It doesn’t get clogged up with the shavings and runs cool and clean. I like how it cuts a clean edge with little or no effort. On the job site I dont have to keep changing the blade to cut the different metals that we are using. The blade doesn’t burn up like some cheap blades and it lasts all day. This is a great blade and has multiple uses on the site, Good choice.

Milwaukee 8 in. x 60 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade is designed to cut non-ferrous metals (aluminum, brass, copper, etc.), plastic, fiberglass and thin metal up to 3/32-inch. It has cobalt infused tungsten carbide tipped teeth that runs cooler. It is substantially for softer materials without high iron (ferrite) content. Other more common blades are for ferrous metals. This blade has more teeth than the ferrous metal cutting blades and gives a cleaner cut in softer materials. With ferrous blades, feeding the material too fast can jam it and damage a tooth or send plenty of metal shavings flying. With plastic and fiberglass material this isn’t the same problem, the more teeth will result in a cleaner cut. It states on the package it is clog free, and has thin slots you can see in the photo’s to dampen vibration. I tried this blade out and had no problem, still very new. Milwaukee makes good saw blades so this should last when used with care and avoid the harder materials.

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 blade is designed to be used in their metal saw and in eight inches in diameter and has 58 teeth (note the product description implies 60 teeth which is not correct). The arbor is 5/8 inch. This blade is specifically designed for aluminum, brass, copper, plastic and fiberglass. Milwaukee claims it is clean cutting and for the most part I found that true. For some of the metal I cut through there were some burs left at the end of the cut but that could have been the result of how I had the metal supported as I cut through. I felt no vibration as I performed multiple cuts. Even thought the Milwaukee metal saw has a chip catching mechanism, I did find the saw blade threw some chips a good 3 feet from the work area. Although I have not yet had an opportunity to cut plastic with the blade I am looking forward to doing so. Usually plastic items require my reciprocating saw which is a long tedious process. This blade in the metal saw should make quick work of cutting plastic.

The Milwaukee 7” 54 tooth saw blade is sweet! I wasn’t sure what I had until I tried it, and wow! This blade will cut brass, copper, plastics, fiberglass, and aluminum! It cuts clean (like butter), cuts cool, and dry with hardly any vibration! Load it into a 7” circular saw and you’re good to go. The teeth are cobalt infused tungsten carbide. It definitely needs to be a part of your saw blade arsenal.

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.

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.

This Milwaukee 9” diameter 72 tooth aluminum cutting blade powers through 3/16” aluminum like cutting through wood. The resulting kerf is precise, clean and smooth. I also cut a piece of 3/8” Plexiglas. The cut was as precise and clean but with a minor amount of spalling along the edge on one side. It is possible that a slower feed might reduce that. I do not own a hand held saw with a one-inch arbor or for that matter a hand held saw that can accommodate a 9” blade. I used this in a corded 10” bench saw with a 5/8” to 1” adapter to clean up some scrap to try it out with 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. One negative is the packaging. It definitely protects the product – with vigor! 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.

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.

9 in. Carbide Tooth Metal Circular Cutting Saw Blade. Designed for softer metals, aluminum, brass, copper and plastics / fiberglass. Fairly thin blade. I’ll use mine to do some wood cutting. This blade has 72 teeth. Arbor size (center hole) is 1 in. I’ll need a 1 in to 5/8 in. adapter to use it on my saw. If you are going to store the blade, I’d modify the original plastic packaging and store the blade in that. Will protect your hands from the sharp teeth.

The Milwaukee 7-1/4 in. x 56 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade makes short work of cutting aluminum flashing. I am using the used flashing for some lawn edging and needed to cut a few inches off a piece. This blade cut it off as it was nothing. As with a lot of tasks, the prep and cleanup was way more time consuming than the task at hand. When I selected this blade, I had hoped to use it on some steel roofing sheets. When it came, the first thing I saw was “ALUMINUM” in big letters. Only slightly disappointed. It will get plenty of use on other aluminum and possible cement board siding provided it is suitable for that.

I opted for this blade to cut vinyl siding. A regular blade tends to shatter the edges and hoped this one would not. As you will see in the pictures it is almost perfect. I also tried this blade on several other materials i.e. pvc pipe, aluminum railing for mulling strips, and copper tubing. I anticipated a jerk or difficulty cutting through the aluminum and copper but it was smooth and effortless to cut through both. I will definitely purchase another one when this one gets dull.
