Milwaukee 48-39-0529 Compact Band Saw Blade 35-3/8-Inch 18TPI, 3 Pack

These blades dull very quickly. I just used them on 1/8 mild steel and they only lasted for about 4-5 cuts. I have been using portabands for 40 years and these are the worse blades I ever used.

Echoing other reviewers, I saw a number of negative reviews but decided to buy anyway since they were Milwaukee blades. I have a new fuel compact saw and each blade in this pack of 3 was too loose to function. They all worked their way off of the saw - a few times off the wheels and once the blade popped off of the rollers. With a Milwaukee blade that I got from a supply house, there were no issues. The blade fit well, ran well, and cut well. I see reviews that say these didnt cut well. I never got that far because the blades would not stay on my saw. The first two photos are of a normally working band saw blade and then the last two are these blades which dont fit well enough to stay on the saw. Note the bowing in contrast to the taut working blade.

Thank God this was available and shipped fasssst! It is shorter than the most common porta-bands. If you get one, know that no body will have the blades so stock up!

Great price for this product!

Great blades. I’ve been using the same one for a few months.

These are well made blades. I mistakenly ordered the wrong size for my saw and had to return them.

Each of these blades broke at the weld. The material seems to be thinned out too much and after 3 cuts, if that, we are replacing a blade. All the teeth on the blade are in great shape but every time on the weld. Ive bought from seller 3 times with better luck the last 2 times but this batch sucked. No longer buying from seller.
