About this product
The Diablo Steel Demon 5-3/8" x 30-Tooth Carbide Saw Blade for Medium Metal is purpose-built for contractors and tradespeople who need fast, accurate cuts through mild steel without the mess and hazards of traditional grinding discs. Engineered with TiCo Hi-Density carbide and a Triple Chip Grind (TCG) geometry, this blade delivers clean, burr-free cuts through steel studs, angle iron, EMT conduit, flat bar, channel, and threaded rod - while producing fewer sparks and significantly less airborne dust. Compatible with corded and cordless trim saws, the thin kerf design draws less power and keeps cutting smooth even on battery-operated tools.
Key Features
- TiCo Hi-Density Carbide Teeth - a high-performance carbide formulation engineered specifically for mild steel cutting, delivering longer blade life and superior cut quality compared to standard grinding discs
- Triple Chip Grind (TCG) Tooth Geometry - reduces sparks during cutting, lowering the likelihood of needing hot work permits on job sites where fire safety protocols apply
- Optimized Blade Body Design - minimizes wandering and deflection so cuts stay straight and true, producing precise results that require virtually no re-work after cutting
- Advanced Laser Cut Stabilizer Vents - trap noise and vibration while keeping the blade running cool, resulting in maximum stability and straight, accurate cuts throughout the blade's life
- Tri-Metal Shock Resistant Brazing - a three-metal brazing system that allows the carbide teeth to withstand extreme impact, providing maximum durability even in demanding metal cutting applications
- Laser Cut Thin Kerf Design (.059" kerf /.039" plate) - removes less material per pass and builds up less heat, making cuts easier and extending cutting life in both cordless and corded saws
- Perma-SHIELD Non-Stick Coating - protects the blade body against gumming, corrosion, and heat build-up so the blade stays cleaner and lasts longer between jobs
- Laser Cut Arbor (20mm) - engineered for reduced vibration and precise blade rotation, helping prevent premature wear and keeping cuts accurate over time
- Controlled Cutting Action - produces larger chip sizes that generate less dust and fewer airborne contaminates compared to grinding discs, improving air quality on the work site
- Rated to 6,000 Maximum RPM - safely matches the operating speed of trim saws for consistent, reliable performance without overloading the blade
Why This Product
- For electricians and steel framing crews cutting EMT conduit, steel studs, and channel on a regular basis, this blade replaces grinding discs with a cleaner, faster cutting method that produces burr-free results and reduces sparks - helping avoid hot work permit requirements on sensitive job sites.
- The thin kerf body (.059") draws less power from the saw motor, making this blade a practical choice for cordless trim saw users who need to stretch battery run time without sacrificing cut quality in mild steel up to 1/8" wall thickness.
- TiCo Hi-Density carbide combined with Tri-Metal Shock Resistant Brazing means the teeth stay in place and stay sharp under the impact and stress of metal cutting - delivering longer blade life and fewer blade changes compared to standard grinding options.
- The 2 deg. hook angle and TCG tooth form are matched specifically to medium metal cutting, controlling the feed rate through steel and producing precise cuts in angle iron, flat bar, all-thread, and channel without the material grabbing or deflecting.
