I own a lot of Milwaukee tools, and like the others, this one does not disappoint! I received this to cut through some aluminum for an outdoor project. I assumed it would work based on the Milwaukee name, but this was GREAT! It cuts through aluminum like butter! The blade did not “junk” up or anything with the cutting despite quite a bit of use on this project. The edges were very smooth following the cut. Save yourself the trouble and order this blade for your aluminum, cooper, and plastic projects. It is well worth it! Oh, as a bonus- the packaging of this blade is far better than others I have received!

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 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.

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.

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 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.

Robust 80 Tooth, 12-inch metal and plastic cutting blade with a 5000 RPM limit (that’s high enough to use with a conventional wood working chop saw or miter saw). I used it in my 12-inch sliding compound miter saw to cut some 1/8″ aluminum bar stock and it did great. Very smooth cuts.1-inch arbor fit my saw perfectly. The package says it is recommended for thin metal (up to 3/32″) and medium metal (1/8″ to 1/4″) but NOT for thick metal (over 1/4″).It is NOT recommended for stainless steel, but the package says nothing about plain steel. Since it spins so fast, my feeling is it should not be used for plain steel either. Wish they would list that specifically on the package to avoid any confusion.It is recommended for Aluminum, Copper, Brass, Plastic and Fiberglass.Max RPM is 5000Arbor is 1″ (25.4 mm)

This Milwaukee non-ferrous metal cutting circular saw blade cuts through items like butter! I actually used it to cut through 1-1/2″ PVC piping and it was so fast and easy to complete my project. The only thing I will say to be aware of is that it has a 20mm arbor which isn’t compatible with some of the circular saws out there. I have a Ryobi 18V circular saw and had to use an “adaptor” that was made by a friend and it worked fine but I would probably buy a blade that is actually made for my saw.This Milwaukee blade is high quality and cuts really well. I’ve used a lot of tool accessories by Milwaukee and have found them to last longer and perform better than other brands. This blade is made for aluminum, brass, copper, plastics and fiberglass. Just an FYI that the 5-7/8″ blade will not work on the Ryobi 5-1/2″ circular saw as it hits the safety shield. I had to install it on my 6-1/2″ circular saw so it would rotate properly without any safety worries. Remove the blade from it’s packaging by just cutting down about an inch from the top and sliding out the blade. You can then reuse the packaging to store the blade safely. I highly recommend this brand of blades.

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

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.

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+

Milwaukee 14 in. x 80 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade – Like most guys I cut aluminum on either a framing chop saw or a finishing compound mitersaw. Stuff like aluminum closet door track, angle iron for brackets, or aluminum railing. I finally pulled the trigger and ordered a blade dedicated to cutting aluminum, brass, copper and plastics to keep my finishing saw blade sharper and last longer.I mounted the new blade in an old metal cutting chop saw and it works great. It cuts aluminum and copper very cleanly with minimal deburring required. I’ve also cut white PVC trim-lumber and PVC electrical conduit with very good results.The packaging says it can cut thin steel (up to ¼”) but, I haven’t tried it yet.

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.

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 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.
