The Diablo Steel Demon Metal Cutting Saw Blade is designed for chop saws, running 1800 RPM or less. Abrasive cut off machines run at higher RPM’s for use with abrasives (obvious, right?) and blades like Milwaukee’s Steelhead Diamond Cut Off Blade. Abrasive cut off machines and chop saws look like the same tool, but they’re not. You want to make sure that you’re using the right tool for the job. Tri-Metal Shock Resistant brazing is what helps the teeth withstand the torturous nature of metal cutting that would rip off a normal blade’s tooth. This proprietary grind makes cutting more effiecient while reducing the amount of visible burring. One of the features that improves the durability and speed is Diablo’s Triple Chip Grind. Diablo is already pulling 40 times more cutting than abrasives in its carbide blades, so it doesn’t take much imagination to realize this is a long lasting blade. That’s not 3 times more than an abrasive, it’s 3 times more than carbide. Diablo claims they get up to 3 times the life out of a Cermet blade compared to what you’ll get out of a standard carbide tipped blade. The teeth are made from the aforementioned Cermet blend and carry with it ridiculously long wear capability. The Diablo Steel Demon Metal Cutting Saw Blade comes to our table with a 14-inch diameter and 1-inch arbor. We’re looking for cutting speed, durability, and smooth finishes. Not to worry, all will be revealed in good time – just not today. We brought in several different metal chop saws, abrasive cut off machines, and metal cutting blades in an effort to find which one will have the best cutting characteristics for our current secret project.
