Milwaukee 10 in. x 24-Tooth Ripping Circular Saw Blade

This was a perfect fit for my table saw. The 50 tooth blade cuts very smooth even when doing 45 degree angle cuts. No binding. It allows you to rip thru long boards without waiting for the saw motor to keep up. Even works great when using pressure treated lumber. I am half way thru building a 8ft by 16ft deck and the blade is still cutting like new.

I put this blade on my Dewalt 12″ sliding Miter saw. It has done a great job so far. I use it for trim as well as for general cuts. It is not a thin kerf blade and is a bit wider cut than my old blade was. So far cutting trim it has done real well making clean cuts. If I was just doing trim work I probably would buy a different blade, but for an all around good blade this one has done me well. I’ve been using it now for about 3 months.

Replaced original DeWalt blade with this one. Cuts much better and cleaner.

This is the Milwaukee 48-40-1026, 10″ by 50-tooth, combination, thin kerf (3/32″) saw blade (note that the package nowhere states the kerf””I measured it). The Home Depot website does state “Thin kerf blade.”. It has an anti-friction coating and the vibration slots are filled with a polymer, supposedly to reduce vibrations more so than just using the slots. The tooth pattern is ATB (alternate-tooth bevel). Milwaukee claims that the blade can be used with softwoods, hardwoods, melamine, wet lumber, treated lumber and laminated woods such as plywood, OSB, LVL, PSL, LSL and OSL.It’s worth noting that the blade comes in an easy-open package. In Photo 1 you can see the perforations (in the plastic and cardboard) allowing you to open the package from the back quite easily. Before installing the blade on my table saw, I checked it for flatness. Out of the package it was perfectly flat all across the blade. After installing the blade in my table saw, I tried both rip and cross cuts with a variety of woods. I noticed a bit of chatter with the blade as I cut 2″ oak, which is not uncommon for thin kerf blades.Photos 2 and 3 show the bottom of the rip and cross cuts in white oak (the tops on all cuts, where the blade enters the wood, were uniformly good, so I’m not showing those photos). Photos 4 and 5 show the bottom rip and cross cuts in hard maple. I thought the rip cuts were excellent on these and other woods I tried. However, the crosscuts did show some tear out. The blade easily sliced through whatever I tried cutting, so it was good and sharp out of the package. Overall, given the price-point of the blade, I think it did a very good job.

These are outstanding replacement blades for my DeWALT 790 DHS Sliding Compound Miter Saw. The Milwaukee 12 in. 2-pack offers an 80-tooth fine finish blade as well as a 44-tooth general purpose blade. Both blades come with carbide teeth, have anti-friction coating that keeps the blades cool while cutting and that resists corrosion and gumming. Both blades are ring tensioned which stabilize the blade and minimize wobble and warping during use. A thin kerf design delivers faster cuts as well as more cuts per charge when using a cordless tool. The 80-tooth fine finish blades minimizes tear out in the cut material.

I have come to trust Milwaukee products and this blade is a prime example. Top quality and performance.

Worthwhile investment for the serious woodworker. As with all Milwaukee products a lot of thought and modern tech went into the design of this blade. Anti friction coating allows for fast cutting and helps to prevent the saw from bogging down. Tooth design allows for clean cuts when cross cutting and ripping.Tough cobalt teeth remain sharp after a lot of abuse. Overall a professional grade blade that performs.

Wow, I’m impressed. Smooth cuts fast. I highly recommend it.

I installed this Milwaukee 10″ General Purpose Blade on our Delta 5 HP Unisaw. I then helped a friend cut some scrap plywood so that he could make some speaker boxes. The blade seems to cut very easily and leaves a nice smooth edge with little to no tear-out on the bottom edge of the cut. Even thought the material we were cutting was not furniture grade, the cuts came out great. Very impressed!
