The Milwaukee 8″ metal cutting blade definitely will get the job done. I use this blade in a Milwaukee m18 cordless metal saw, and I’m impressed with how smooth the cut is. The blade definitely lasted a good amount of time as long as you dont force it through the cut. The last thing you want to do is to increase the heat the blade gets from cutting so let it do the work.

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.

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.

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.

So I ordered this new blade for my metal cutting saw since it says “metal cutting circular saw blade” I use a heavy duty metal cutting blade for cutting STEEL. Glad I looked closely at the blade. Afraid to try it on steel so I used it for cutting a 1″ round stock aluminum rod. It cut nicely but I am just going to save it for the occasional cutting of soft metals. Milwaukee should re-name it ‘SOFT METAL CUTTING BLADE” I cut 100 pieces of steel for every aluminum or brass piece I cut. Nice blade, just not what I thought it was.

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.

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 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.

I love these 8 inch blades. This 58 tooth gives you smooth, fast cuts in aluminum, plastics, fiberglass, copper and brass. It’s excellent for cutting sheets of aluminum or fiberglass, as it cuts cleanly and doesn’t heat up like some. With more plastics being used, this works great for making smooth accurate cutting there too. The teeth are ‘cobalt infused tungsten carbide’ and no lubrication is needed. It didn’t clog up with material like some I’ve used in the past. This is perfect for my 8 inch metal saw. If you have an 8 inch metal saw, why not use an 8 inch blade? If you haven’t tried these newest blades, give them a try. They perform flawlessly and save time too.

I ordered this blade to cut a number of different materials including plastic pipe. In the past I’ve done it with just a regular carbide blade with good results. In this case, I needed to get a better cut for my current project, not actually plumbing but building a drone, so I ordered this 10 inch metal cutting blade to use on my compound miter saw. It really allows for a precise cut even on larger diameter pipe.One word of caution, using this blade on any material generates a large amount of very fine dust. I was shocked @ how much floats around during the cutting process; wear good safety glasses.

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.

I was attempting to cut plastic panels with the 40t ‘construction’ blade that came with my saw. I knew better from the start but it was worth the experiment. In the first few inches you could tell the edges were going to be rough and chipped and just not great. Fortunately this blade showed up shortly after and the difference was night and day. Quick, clean cuts. Much smoother edges. All around a great experience. I’ll be really curious about aluminum or copper performance, but so far so good.

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.

The Milwaukee ten inch eighty tooth aluminum cutting saw blade is specifically designed to cut nonferrous metals, cuts are high quality and speed right through the most demanding metal cutting applications ;no lubrication is needed as this blade is designed for cool running. The metal cutting circular saw blades have hardened alloy steel bodies, thus extending blade life and delivering high quality cuts. The teeth are carbide tipped and have alternating bevel grind to shear through metal delivering burr free, cool to touch cuts. This uses tungsten carbide to extend cutting life and has laser cut vibration dampening slots to minimize heat, sound and noise. Clean, cool and burr free cuts are the claim to fame of this blade.

The blade is definitely sharp. The first cut was my finger nail as I tried to install the to my cordless circular hand saw. I was able to test it out by cutting a fiberglass to size. The cut was clean thanks to the 50 teeth. There was not too much vibration as I was cutting the fiber glass. I plan on cutting some copper using the blade and I am confident that I will also have a nice clean edge. The blade is strong and should last a myriad projects.

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.
