Product Specification

6-1/2" 60-TOOTH TCT SAW BLADE FOR ALUMINUM & NON-FERROUS METALS

The Benchmark Abrasives 6-1/2" 60-Tooth TCT saw blade is designed for clean, controlled cutting of aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. Its high 60-tooth count and TCG (Triple Chip Grind) tooth geometry favor a smoother finished edge, making this blade a strong choice when cut quality and reduced finishing work are important.

Built for compatible corded and cordless circular saws, this blade combines durable tungsten carbide-tipped teeth with a 0.075" kerf for efficient cutting through aluminum sheet, extrusion, bar stock and similar non-ferrous materials. The 5/8" arbor with diamond knockout provides compatibility with saws designed for either arbor configuration.

Product Features

  • 60-tooth configuration favors a clean, controlled cut and smoother finished edge.
  • TCG tooth geometry is designed for cutting aluminum and other non-ferrous materials.
  • Tungsten carbide-tipped teeth provide a durable cutting edge for repeated use.
  • 0.075" kerf provides an efficient cutting path through aluminum and similar materials.
  • 5/8" arbor with diamond knockout provides fitment options for compatible circular saws.
  • 4,600 RPM maximum speed provides a clear operating limit for proper machine selection.

Materials & Applications

Best For

  • Aluminum
  • Aluminum extrusion
  • Aluminum sheet
  • Aluminum bar
  • Aluminum profiles
  • Brass
  • Copper
  • Bronze
  • Other similar non-ferrous metals

The 60-tooth configuration makes this blade particularly useful for fabrication, installation and shop applications where maintaining a cleaner finished edge is more important than maximizing cutting speed.

Machine Compatibility

Designed for compatible 6-1/2" 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 be designed to accept the blade and must not exceed the blade's 4,600 RPM maximum rating.

Choosing the Right Tooth Count

With 60 teeth on a 6-1/2" blade, this blade favors controlled cutting and a smoother finished edge, making it well suited for aluminum applications where cut quality is important.

Tips for Better Blade Performance

  • Secure the workpiece firmly before cutting.
  • Allow the blade to cut at a controlled feed rate rather than forcing the saw through the material.
  • Keep aluminum chips clear of the cutting area.
  • Inspect the blade before use for damaged, missing, or excessively worn teeth.
  • Replace or professionally sharpen the blade when cutting performance noticeably declines.
  • A saw blade lubricant or cutting wax can help reduce aluminum buildup on the teeth during demanding applications.
  • • Never exceed the blade's 4,600 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 and maintain control of the saw throughout the cut.
  • Wear appropriate eye, face, hearing, and respiratory protection for the material being cut.
  • This blade is designed for aluminum and non-ferrous metal cutting. Use a Benchmark TCT blade specifically designed for steel/ferrous metals when cutting steel.

Frequently Asked Questions

This blade is designed for aluminum and other non-ferrous metals, including brass, copper, and bronze. It is well suited for common aluminum forms such as sheet, extrusion, bar, and profiles.
More teeth generally favor a smoother finished edge, while fewer teeth favor faster, more aggressive cutting. With 60 teeth on a 6-1/2" blade, this blade is a strong choice when clean, controlled cutting and edge quality are priorities.
TCG stands for Triple Chip Grind. The tooth geometry alternates cutting profiles to distribute the cutting action across the teeth, helping provide controlled cutting, good edge quality, and tooth durability when cutting aluminum and other non-ferrous metals.
The blade has a 5/8" arbor with a diamond knockout. The knockout allows the arbor opening to be adapted for compatible saws that use a diamond-shaped drive configuration. Only remove the knockout when required by the saw manufacturer.
No. This blade is designed for aluminum and non-ferrous metals. For steel and other ferrous materials, use a Benchmark Abrasives TCT blade specifically designed for steel/metal cutting.
The blade is designed for compatible 6-1/2" corded and cordless circular saws that accept its 5/8" arbor or diamond knockout configuration and operate at or below 4,600 RPM. Always verify blade diameter, arbor fit, and machine RPM before installation.
The blade has a 0.075" kerf, which is the approximate width of material removed by the blade during the cut.
The maximum operating speed is 4,600 RPM. Never use the blade on a saw whose operating speed exceeds the maximum RPM marked on the blade.
Lubricant is not required for every cut, but saw blade lubricant or cutting wax can help reduce aluminum buildup on the teeth and maintain smoother cutting performance during demanding applications.
Slower cutting, increased cutting effort, declining edge quality, or excessive material buildup can indicate a dull blade. A structurally sound blade may be professionally sharpened. Replace blades with cracked, warped, missing, or damaged teeth.
