Product Description
Milwaukee 14 in. 90-Tooth Dry-Cut Carbide-Tipped Saw Blade
Model Number: 48-40-4510
The Milwaukee 48-40-4510 is a 14 in. 90-tooth Dry-Cut Carbide-Tipped Saw Blade for cutting light-gauge ferrous metals, stainless steel, steel tubing, metal studs, and metal framing materials with Milwaukee and compatible dry-cut metal cutting chop saws and miter saws without the spark generation, heat buildup, and abrasive wheel consumption that characterize conventional abrasive metal cutting wheels. Dry-cut carbide-tipped metal saw blades represent a fundamentally different approach to metal cutting compared to abrasive cutoff wheels — the carbide-tipped tooth geometry cuts metal by shearing the material along defined cut lines rather than grinding it away, producing a clean, burr-minimal cut edge that requires significantly less post-cut deburring work compared to abrasive wheel cuts, and generating chips rather than sparks and metal dust that create fire hazards and respiratory concerns in occupied spaces.
The 90-tooth count is the high-tooth specification for light-gauge ferrous metal cutting — more teeth in contact with the workpiece simultaneously means each individual tooth removes less material per revolution, which is the correct geometry for the thin-wall tubing, sheet metal, and light structural profiles that this blade is designed for. Higher tooth count in metal cutting also produces a finer, smoother cut surface finish and reduces the cut-face burr formation that requires deburring before assembly or installation. The carbide tips are precision-ground and brazed to the blade's alloy steel plate body, providing the extended cutting life that carbide delivers compared to steel teeth in metal cutting applications while the steel body provides the flexural strength needed for a 14 in. saw blade to operate safely at metal cutting saw speeds. This blade is designed for cutting light-gauge ferrous materials and stainless steel — it is not designed for cutting aluminum, non-ferrous metals, wood, or masonry.
See Milwaukee's dry-cut blade lineup for additional tooth counts optimized for specific gauge ranges, and for blades engineered for aluminum and non-ferrous metal cutting applications that require different tooth geometry and carbide specifications.
