Product Description
Milwaukee 12 in. Ductile Iron Segmented Diamond Saw Blade
Model Number: 49-93-7335
The Milwaukee 49-93-7335 is a 12 in. Ductile Iron Segmented Diamond Saw Blade — a specialty diamond blade engineered specifically for cutting ductile iron pipe in water main and sewer infrastructure work, where standard concrete diamond blades and abrasive wheels produce unacceptably slow cutting and excessive blade wear in the tough, impact-resistant ductile iron material. Ductile iron presents a fundamentally different cutting challenge than concrete and masonry — the material is highly resistant to the abrasive grinding action of standard diamond segments, and requires a segment bond and diamond specification specifically engineered for the ferrous, impact-absorbing properties of ductile iron for productive cutting. Milwaukee's ductile iron segment specification uses a bond formulation that promotes controlled segment wear in ductile iron, maintaining fresh diamond exposure throughout the cutting cycle for consistent cutting speed in this challenging pipe material.
The 12 in. diameter is used with cut-off saws and walk-behind saws for cutting ductile iron water and sewer mains in new installation and repair work — the 12 in. format provides the cutting depth for the pipe diameters commonly encountered in water main and sewer infrastructure work. Ductile iron pipe cutting generates significant heat and metal debris — eye and face protection are essential, and keeping the blade moving continuously without dwelling in the cut reduces localized heat buildup at the segment. Water cooling extends blade service life in ductile iron cutting when water can be applied to the cut interface during the cut. Always verify the pipe material before selecting the blade specification — ductile iron and cast iron require different approaches than concrete and masonry.
