Product Specification

7-1/4" 52-TOOTH TCT SAW BLADE FOR STEEL & FERROUS METAL

The Benchmark Abrasives 7-1/4" 52-tooth TCT saw blade is designed for clean, controlled cutting of steel and other ferrous metals. Its 52-tooth configuration and TCG (Triple chip grind) tooth geometry favor smoother edge quality, making it a strong choice for fabrication, installation and metalworking applications where cut finish matters.

Tungsten carbide-tipped teeth help produce clean cuts with fewer sparks and less heat than traditional abrasive cutting methods. The 5/8" arbor with diamond knockout provides fitment flexibility for compatible corded and cordless circular saws, while the 0.087" kerf delivers a stable cutting path through tubing, angle iron, rebar, flat stock and other common steel shapes.

Product Features

  • 52-tooth configuration favors smoother edge quality and more controlled cutting.
  • TCG tooth geometry helps distribute the cutting load across alternating tooth profiles for durable metal-cutting performance.
  • Tungsten carbide-tipped teeth provide a long-lasting cutting edge for repeated steel cutting.
  • 0.087" kerf provides a stable cutting path through common ferrous-metal shapes.
  • 5/8" arbor with diamond knockout provides fitment flexibility for compatible circular saws.
  • Reduced sparks and heat compared with traditional abrasive cutting methods help provide a cleaner cutting experience.
  • 5,800 RPM maximum speed clearly identifies the operating limit for proper machine selection.

Materials & Applications

Best For

  • Mild steel
  • Steel
  • Wrought iron
  • Square tubing
  • Round pipe and tubing
  • Angle iron
  • Rebar
  • Flat stock
  • Steel plate up to 1/8"

The 52-tooth configuration is especially useful for fabrication, installation, maintenance and general metalworking applications where a cleaner finished edge is more important than the faster cutting speed of a lower-tooth-count blade.

Machine Compatibility

Common compatible saw brands include:

  • Makita® 4131

Designed for compatible 7-1/4" corded and cordless circular saws that accept a 5/8" arbor or compatible diamond knockout configuration.

Always verify your saw's blade diameter, arbor configuration and operating RPM before installation. The saw must not exceed the blade's 5,800 RPM maximum rating.

Choosing the Right Tooth Count

With 52 teeth on a 7-1/4" blade, this is the smoother-cutting option compared with the 40T version, making it better suited for thinner material and finish-sensitive steel cutting.

Tips for Better Blade Performance

  • Secure the workpiece firmly before cutting.
  • Use a steady, controlled feed rate and allow the carbide teeth to perform the cut.
  • Avoid forcing the blade through the material.
  • Keep chips and debris clear of the cutting path.
  • Inspect the blade before use for damaged, missing or excessively worn teeth.
  • Replace or professionally sharpen the blade when cutting performance noticeably declines.
  • Saw blade lubricant can help reduce buildup and extend blade life during demanding applications.
  • Never exceed the blade's 5,800 RPM maximum operating speed.

Safety

  • Use only on saws designed to accept this blade diameter and arbor configuration.
  • Never install the blade on a machine that exceeds the blade's maximum RPM.
  • Keep all factory guards installed and properly functioning.
  • Inspect the blade before every use. Do not use a cracked, warped or damaged blade.
  • Secure the workpiece before cutting and maintain control throughout the cut.
  • Do not use this blade on stainless steel or hardened materials.
  • Wear appropriate eye, hearing, respiratory, and hand protection for the application.

Lucy ★★★★★

Cut some 1/4" angle iron today and the 52-tooth design left edges so clean I didn't need to deburr a thing. It's a bit pricier than the cheap discs I used before, but the finish on ferrous metal is worth it.

Richard T. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about cutting stainless with a circular saw, but this blade made it through a 3/16" sheet without any burning or chipping. The 52 teeth really do leave a noticeably clean edge, and it held up through an entire project without dulling.

Jacob O. ★★★★★

Cut through some steel angle iron and the 52 teeth left an edge so clean I didn't even need to deburr. The 7-1/4" size fits my circular saw perfectly, and it's held up through a dozen cuts without any wobble or chipping.
