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.

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.

I needed to cut some aluminum shower door hardware as part of a bathroom upgrade. Due to the size of the pieces and type of cuts to be made, I used this blade in my 10-inch table saw. This blade is for a saw with a one-inch arbor – but since my saw has a 5/8-inch arbor I had to use a brass adaptor.This blade seems to be top quality. The carbide-tipped teeth have an alternate top bevel grind, and there are numerous laser cut vibration dampening slots to minimize heat buildup and noise. It is designed to cut without any water or oil lubrication, which eliminates the hassle and mess.This blade worked flawlessly on the parts I cut and produced a fairly smooth finish. I am very satisfied with the quality and performance of this blade.

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)

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 installed this blade in my Milwaukee battery miter saw. As expected, the 5/8” arbor size was correct for my saw but there is no other option. I tested the 48-40-4360 10” blade and the chart on the back of the package lists the recommended and acceptable uses, plus unacceptable materials. This blade is only recommended for thin metal up to 3/32” and medium metal (1/8”-1/4”), aluminum, copper/brass, and plastic/fiberglass. Not recommended for thick steel (1/4”-1/2”) or stainless steel. There is no recommendation for wood, but it cut select pine cleanly. I tried cutting thin steel channel and the blade cut cleanly through. I also tried PVC pipe with similar results. I did not have the other materials to test. When cutting the thin metal there were some sparks thrown off so it would be best to stay clear of flammables while cutting metal. The 70 tooth blade tips are cobalt infused tungsten carbide for long life. Laser cut groves in the body of the blade help prevent blade warping during repeated use. The blade mounted with the printing on the opposite side of my original blade. Be sure to check the proper rotation with the blade arrow when mounting the blade. The back indicates the blade should be used with cordless miter saws.

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.

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 had to install a Plexiglas shield at a service counter which required cutting aluminum trim and Plexiglas panels. I purchased a Milwaukee cordless metal cutting saw to go with this blade and it did the job. The blade works well with the Plexiglas with just a little gumming up from the heat and friction. It handled the aluminum trim pretty easily and was a lot easier cutting than with a hacksaw. This is a good quality blade.

I used to cut aluminum square bar stock. Worked very well. Fast, burr free, very clean cuts.

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.

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.

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.

“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.
