Diablo Steel Demon Circular Saw Blade Review
George VondriskaDescription
Impressive results
To date I’ve been cutting metal for my welding projects with an abrasive disc. I MUCH prefer the cutting speed and cut quality from the Freud Steel Demon. After testing this on my circ saw I bought a 10″ blade I can use on an old miter saw. That will really speed up my metal processing. I honestly can’t get over how well this blade plows through mild steel.
Longevity?
I don’t know the answer to this, yet. I’ve made dozens of cuts in mild steel with no degradation of performance — so far, so good.
Blades available
There are a few Steel Demon blades available:
- – Thin metal; less than 3/32″ thick.
- – Medium metal; 1/16” – 1/8″ thick.
- – Thick metal; 1/8” – 1/2″ thick.
The thin and thick metal blades are available in 7-¼” blades with a 5/8″ or 20 mm arbor. The medium metal blade is available in 6-½”, 6-¾”, 7″ (20 mm arbor) and 7-¼”. I’m using a medium metal blade in this video. All of the blades have a TCG (triple chip grind).
