7-1/4" 60-TOOTH TCT SAW BLADE FOR ALUMINUM & NON-FERROUS METALS
The Benchmark Abrasives 7-1/4" 60-Tooth TCT saw blade is built for clean, controlled cutting of aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. Its 60-tooth configuration and TCG (Triple Chip Grind) tooth geometry help produce a smoother finished edge, making it a strong choice for fabrication and installation work where cut quality matters.
Designed 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 additional fitment flexibility for saws designed around either arbor configuration.

Materials & Applications
Best For
Aluminum
Aluminum extrusion
Aluminum sheet
Aluminum bar
Aluminum profiles
Brass
Copper
Bronze
Other similar non-ferrous metals
This blade is well suited for fabrication, construction, installation and general shop applications where a clean, accurate cut in aluminum is preferred over a more aggressive coarse-tooth finish.
Machine Compatibility
Designed for compatible 7-1/4" corded and cordless circular saws that accept a 5/8" arbor or compatible diamond knockout configuration. The current product listing also identifies corded and cordless circular saws as the intended machines.
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 5,800 RPM maximum rating.
Choosing the Right Tooth Count
With 60 teeth on a 7-1/4" blade, this blade provides a useful balance between cutting speed and edge finish for general-purpose aluminum and non-ferrous cutting.
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.
Saw blade lubricant or cutting wax can help reduce aluminum buildup on the teeth during demanding applications.
Never exceed the blade's 5,800 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.
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.
Yes. On a 7-1/4" blade, 60 teeth provides a useful balance between cutting speed and a smoother finished edge. It is a good option when you want cleaner cuts without moving all the way to a higher-tooth-count finish blade.
The 60-tooth blade favors a little more cutting speed while still providing a clean finished edge. An 80-tooth blade generally favors an even smoother finish and is better suited to thinner material or applications where edge quality is the higher priority.
TCG stands for Triple Chip Grind. The alternating tooth profiles 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 other non-ferrous metals. For steel and ferrous materials, use a Benchmark Abrasives TCT blade specifically designed for steel/metal cutting.
The blade is designed for compatible 7-1/4" corded and cordless circular saws that accept its 5/8" arbor or diamond knockout configuration and operate at or below 5,800 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.
Lubricant is not required for every application, 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 any blade that is cracked, warped, or has damaged or missing teeth.
