Product Description
Milwaukee 5 in. DIAMOND MAX Continuous, Tile Diamond Blade
Model Number: 49-93-9205
The Milwaukee 49-93-9205 5 in. DIAMOND MAX Continuous Tile Diamond Blade is a premium-tier cutting blade engineered specifically for tile installers, hardscape contractors, stone fabricators, and any tradesperson cutting porcelain, ceramic, marble, or granite on a 5 in. tile saw or angle grinder. Where general-purpose diamond blades are optimized for aggressive cutting through masonry materials like concrete and brick, the DIAMOND MAX Continuous Tile family is engineered around a completely different priority: ultimate precision and minimal chipping on the finished edge of a tile cut. The 5 in. blade size fits the standard chuck capacity of compact tile saws, handheld wet saws, and 5 in. angle grinders used for both wet and dry cutting in tile setting, countertop fabrication, and stone trim work. The DIAMOND MAX line is positioned in Milwaukee's premium diamond blade tier, delivering up to 5 times the cutting life of standard diamond blades in porcelain applications, which translates directly into fewer blade changes per job, lower per-cut cost, and more productive cutting time on every project.
The defining engineering feature of the 49-93-9205 is the continuous rim design with proprietary diamond formula. Where segmented and turbo-rim blades cut aggressively through hard masonry but leave a chipped, ragged edge that requires grinding or hiding under grout, the continuous rim presents an uninterrupted cutting surface that slices through delicate tile materials with minimal chipping, spalling, or edge damage. This is exactly what tile installers need for visible cuts at outside corners, transition strips, bullnose edges, miter cuts for shower curbs, and any cut where the finished edge will be exposed in the final installation. The vented steel core dissipates heat during the cut, preventing the blade-glazing and burn marks that ruin a tile cut in dense porcelain materials, while laser-cut slots in the steel core deliver cooling air flow without interfering with the integrity of the continuous cutting rim. A reinforced hub provides increased stability during cuts, which is critical at the small 5 in. blade diameter where rim runout has a proportionally larger effect on cut quality.
The 49-93-9205 is rated for both wet and dry cutting applications, giving the operator flexibility to use water-fed tile saws for the cleanest possible cuts with maximum dust suppression, or to run dry on a handheld angle grinder where setting up a water supply is impractical. Compatible cutting materials include porcelain tile (including dense large-format porcelain that destroys conventional tile blades), ceramic tile, marble, and granite. The 49-93-9205 is one size in Milwaukee's DIAMOND MAX Continuous Tile blade family, which is also available in 4 in. (49-93-9202), 7 in. (49-93-9207), and 10 in. (49-93-9210) sizes, sold separately under their respective part numbers for tile saws and grinders requiring different blade diameters. For general-purpose masonry cutting where aggressive material removal matters more than edge finish, see the DIAMOND MAX Segmented Turbo (49-93-90XX) and DIAMOND MAX Turbo (49-93-91XX) blade families for the right blade for hard concrete and aggregate. Always operate the blade within the saw or grinder manufacturer's specified RPM limits, verify the blade arbor matches your tool's spindle, use the correct guard configuration, and follow proper safety protocols including respiratory PPE for silica dust exposure when dry-cutting tile and stone materials.
