I bought this blade wondering if it would cut as I have heard it would. Not wanting to spend a lot for the whole saw I went for only the blade. Well I put it on my table saw and it cut very clean and with very few sparks. Now I did feed it at about 1/6th the speed of a piece of wood while cutting 3/16 inch thick steel. All I can say is it cut great, Very clean,cool to the touch in about 20 seconds or so. Was not sure if it would be to hot to touch so I waited the few sconds. Just use a face shield to protect your eyes from the very small slivers of metal.I never thought metal could be cut this clean and easy and almost spark free.

THESE BLADES ARE GREAT. I USE THEM ALOT FOR SCRAP METAL CUTTING TO MAKE LOADS MORER COMPACT. THE ONLY THING IF THERE HAPPENS TO BE A HARD SPOT IN THE METAL IT MAY CHIP OR LOSE A TOOTH. JUST DON'T LET THE METAL BIND THE BLADE OR YOU HAVE TO GET ANOTHER PERSON TO STEADY THE PIECE WHILE MAKING THE CUT. I'VE CUT 2" SOLID SHAFTS IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. I'D HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE BLADES OR THE 50T IF THE METAL IS PRETTY THIN.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Milwaukee 48-40-4515 8-Inch 42 Tooth Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metal Cutting Saw Blade with 5/8-Inch Arbor (Tools & Home Improvement)

Brilliant invention. I'm a sculptor who works mainly in steel. I cut an entire life sized, three dimensional horse from 1/4" steel plate, using only one blade.

It is essential to use the correct saw, (Milwaukee), with this blade, both for longevity of the saw blade, and one's own safety. The cuts are clean, it's easy to push the tool through the material, and there are no sparks. An absolute must for fabricators and artists alike.
