These blades are ideal for general metal sawing tasks. They are suitable for cutting various types of metal.

How long will the blades last?

Blade life depends on usage and the type of metal being cut. Regular use and appropriate cutting techniques will extend blade life.

Can I use these blades on materials other than metal?

While these blades are designed for metal, you may be able to cut some plastics or softer materials. However, their performance may be sub-optimal.
