Milwaukee 5-7/8 in. x 34 Carbide Teeth Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade

Bought this blade for my husband. He was very happy with it.

Very satisfied

The MILWAUKEE 5-7/8 IN. X 34 TEETH FERROUS METAL CUTTING CIRCULAR SAW BLADE is a great way to turn small metal cutting projects into a quick and cleaner way of finishing your task. Before owning this blade I would have to cut angle iron with a hacksaw which always seemed like a slow, tedious process. After cutting I would always have to break out the file and file off the burrs so that it wouldn’t cut you. This blade saves me time, it is much quicker to finish the cut and the cut is relatively burr free eliminating the filing step. This blade has a 20mm arbor which will fit most circular saws.

This Milwaukee 5 7/8″ diameter 34 tooth metal cutting blade powers through 1/8″ thick steel 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 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. 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.

This Milwaukee 5-7/8 in. x 34 Teeth Ferrous Metal Cutting Circular Saw Blade is perfect for cutting steel, aluminum, strut, all thread, or angle iron. This blade can cut medium thick material 1/16 to 3/16 inch thick. It can be used with the Milwaukee cordless handheld circular saw. It has cobalt infused tungsten carbide teeth and laser cut vibration slots.

I used it to cut 1/2″ steel plate. 8 cuts over 1′ long. Then cut 16 more 1/4″ thick plates 6″ wide. Blade is still in good shape.

The Milwaukee metal cutting circular saw blade was what I was looking for to cut long metal poles to a slightly shorter length. The blade gave a scalpel precision cut in no time. The 5 7/8 inch was enough to fit my circular saw. I was able to also cut some scrap metal pipes to fit my garage can too. I plan on make some metal frames to include in a project on my shelving.

The blade cut ferrous metal like a hot knife through butter.

Back in 2007 I was a new employee at an aluminum extrusion plant tasked to install 1 inch steel plate under a work table. Given the Milwaukee metal cutting circular saw with this blade (factory rated in 2007 for 1 inch plate) it cut more because I was cutting at an angle! It did not disappoint! I cut over 16 feet with two blades in literally less than 30 minutes, amazing! Sadly the saw rating was changed to 3/4″ for the saw purchased 10 years ago and now rated for only 1/4 inch thick. Care must be given to support all of the work material or pinching the blade will knock off the carbides and destroy the blade instantly.
