Product Description
Milwaukee 5 in. STEELHEAD Diamond Cut-Off Blade
Model Number: 49-93-7810
The Milwaukee 49-93-7810 is a 5 in. STEELHEAD Diamond Cut-Off Blade for use with 5 in. angle grinders — a specialty diamond blade engineered specifically for cutting ferrous metal, rebar, pipe, and structural steel where the STEELHEAD's diamond edge provides superior service life compared to conventional abrasive cut-off wheels in production metal cutting. The STEELHEAD diamond blade cuts ferrous metal through a diamond abrasive grinding action rather than conventional aluminum oxide abrasive grain cutting — the diamond edge maintains cutting effectiveness significantly longer per blade than aluminum oxide abrasive wheels at comparable cutting speeds, providing the blade life economy that reduces blade consumption cost and replacement frequency in production structural metal cutting. The 5 in. diameter occupies the intermediate size between the common 4-1/2 in. and 6 in. cut-off blade formats, providing more cutting depth per pass than 4-1/2 in. blades while remaining more compact and lighter than 6 in. configurations for the applications where this intermediate size is most practical.
The STEELHEAD's extended life advantage is most economically significant in the production metal cutting applications where blade consumption rate is a meaningful operational cost factor — production rebar cutting on concrete construction projects, production structural steel and pipe work in fabrication, and sustained metal cutting operations where the conventional abrasive wheel's consumption drives significant per-cut blade cost. Milwaukee's STEELHEAD series applies premium diamond technology to demanding professional metal cutting where the performance advantages justify the premium specification over conventional abrasive wheels.
