Product Description
Milwaukee STEELHEAD 14 in. Diamond Cut-Off Blade
Model Number: 49-93-7840
The Milwaukee 49-93-7840 is a STEELHEAD 14 in. Diamond Cut-Off Blade for use with 14 in. cut-off saws and chop saws — a diamond abrasive cutting blade engineered for fast, accurate dry cutting through concrete, masonry, brick, block, pavers, and stone with no blade wear-out concerns compared to abrasive bonded wheel cut-off discs that consume themselves during cutting. Standard abrasive cut-off wheels are consumable grinding discs that wear smaller with every cut until the disc is too small for safe use — Milwaukee's STEELHEAD diamond blade uses diamond-impregnated segments on a steel core that does not consume itself during cutting, maintaining its 14 in. working diameter throughout the blade's service life. This eliminates the progressive diameter reduction, guard adjustment requirements, and frequent disc replacement that abrasive wheels require in production cutting environments.
STEELHEAD diamond blades deliver faster cutting speeds than abrasive wheels on concrete and masonry materials — the diamond segment's abrasive cutting action cuts more aggressively per unit of blade contact time and generates less heat in the cut material, reducing the thermal cracking and spalling at cut edges that high-heat abrasive cutting produces in some concrete and masonry materials. The dry-cut specification eliminates the water supply and slurry management requirements of wet diamond cutting, making the STEELHEAD appropriate for applications where water is unavailable or impractical while still providing dramatically better performance than abrasive wheels in the same materials. Milwaukee engineers the STEELHEAD segment bond and diamond specification for the hard abrasive materials used in construction — concrete pavers, block, and natural stone that quickly consume lower-specification diamond blades used in the same applications.
