10" 80-TOOTH TCT SAW BLADE FOR STEEL & FERROUS METAL
The Benchmark Abrasives 10" 80-tooth TCT saw blade is designed for clean, controlled cutting of steel and other ferrous metals. Its higher 80-tooth configuration and TCG (Triple chip grind) tooth geometry favor smoother edge quality, making it a strong choice for fabrication and metalworking applications where cut finish matters.
Tungsten carbide-tipped teeth help produce clean, burr-reduced cuts with fewer sparks and less heat than traditional abrasive cutting methods. The 5/8" arbor with diamond knockout fits compatible miter saws and Evolution® saws, while the 0.091" kerf provides a stable cutting path through tubing, angle iron, plate, rebar and flat stock.

Product Features
80-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.
0.091" kerf provides a stable cutting path through common ferrous-metal shapes.
5/8" arbor with diamond knockout provides fitment flexibility for compatible saws.
Reduced sparks and heat compared with traditional abrasive cutting methods help provide a cleaner cutting experience.
5,200 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 80-tooth configuration is especially useful for fabrication, installation, maintenance and general metalworking applications where a cleaner finished edge is more important than maximizing cutting speed.
Machine Compatibility
Designed for compatible 10" miter saws and Evolution® 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 5,200 RPM maximum rating.
Choosing the Right Tooth Count
With 80 teeth on a 10" blade, this is the smoother-cutting option compared with the 52T 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 5,200 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.
Frequently Asked Questions
This blade is designed for mild steel and other ferrous metals, including non-hardened ferrous steel. It is well suited for square tubing, angle iron, pipe, rebar, flat stock and steel plate up to 1/8".
Choose the 52-tooth blade when faster cutting and productivity are the priority. Choose the 80-tooth blade when a smoother finished edge and more controlled cut are more important.
More teeth remain engaged with the material during cutting, which generally reduces the amount of material removed by each tooth and produces a finer finished edge than a lower-tooth-count blade.
Yes. Higher tooth counts are generally better suited to thinner material and finish-sensitive cuts because more teeth remain engaged with the workpiece during the cut.
TCG stands for Triple Chip Grind. The alternating tooth profiles share the cutting load, helping improve tooth durability and support controlled cutting in ferrous metals.
Yes. Carbide-tipped metal-cutting blades typically produce fewer sparks and less heat than traditional abrasive cutting methods when used in the proper application.
The blade has a 5/8" arbor with a diamond knockout, allowing it to fit compatible saws designed around either arbor configuration. Only remove the knockout when required by the saw manufacturer.
No. This blade is not recommended for stainless steel or hardened materials. Use a saw blade specifically rated for stainless steel.
This blade is designed for steel and ferrous-metal cutting. For aluminum and other non-ferrous metals, use a Benchmark Abrasives TCT blade specifically designed for aluminum.
Common compatible saws include the Evolution R255SMS, R255SMS+, R255SMS-DB+ and RAGE3/RAGE3-DB 10-inch miter saw families when configured for a 1-inch-bore blade. Current R255SMS-family machines use a 10-inch blade, 1-inch arbor and approximately 2,500 RPM and are designed to cut mild steel. Confirm compatibility with the exact saw model and version, including arbor setup, flange engagement, guard clearance, blade rotation and permitted material.
The blade has a maximum operating speed of 5,200 RPM. Never use it on a saw whose operating speed exceeds the maximum RPM marked on the blade.
