@@avman2cl except in Oregon! 😂 and some other states, just thought I’d comment that cause I found out Oregon passed a law that made it impossible to sell cats unless you are the owner or a wholesaler
@@jaygatsby3007 anyone else sucks. Hard eggs. The blade keeps the dang thing straight. If you fuck up such a cut, you’re either fucked up, or a lazy POS.
@@joshbousche8669 nah he just didn’t cut through it the first time, leaving a small mitre groove. Not cut all the way, but maybe a half mm off that groove
The Bosch heavy duty metal blades are the best. I spent 40 bucks on a diamond cutting blade, got through 1 cut before it completely lost all its teeth, went and bought the 5 pack of the Bosch for like 25 bucks. Finished breaking down a trailer frame with just one of those blades, I still have them to this day and use them all the time. I still use the one that I used on the trailer
Im not completely sure my town didn't have the Diablo blades. But they are pretty much the same company, one owns the other, the one I tried was a diamond tipped Lenox blade I believe, I would have to look at it I still have the old blade somewhere
@Ban this youtube damn that’s awesome…these blades were made to make the job easy. Pretty affordable too which makes it really worth the money (in my opinion)
I’m guessing about 3 we use those at the job and once we had to demo large 6 and 8inch black iron pipe that had to be 1/4 or1/2 thick and it did about 6 of them before it was time effective to switch blades 😂😁
@@TheGreatWhiteHope-pb3qr that's why he's the foreman and not out there working with you still. He cant work but he sure can talk. Definitely talked his way into foreman if he cant use a sawzall 😂
a lot of blades could probably do that. the insane thing about diablo blades is whatever black magic alloy they use holds an edge WAY longer. their blades tend to be thicker too. one of the few brands that lives up to the hype
Lube??? Should I take the I-beam to dinner and drinks first...maybe some foreplay??....or should I just "accidentally" knock on her back door and see if she answers??? 🤣😂🤣😂
@fatjeezussouthtexasoutdoor5244 dumbest reply every you can tell this kid never worked a hard day in his life let alone in a metal fabrication place lube is also a term for wd-40 or sometype of tap liquid to keep the blade cool while cutting or bit while tapping but you'd never know that
Diablo is definitely my go-to blades for pretty much anything whether it be abrasive cutting wheels for my grinder or saw blades for my circular saw personally I would have wanted to use a longer blade for this test but pretty much the only thing I can fault you on is not using some cutting fluid just spraying that fucker with WD-40 while you're doing that would help a lot
These blades work very well. Diablo have released an AMPED range of metal cutting blades which are even better. Blades will last a lot longer if you use cutting oil and don't run the recip saw at full speed. A variable speed corded recip saw is the way to go. And yes, it is a H Beam rather than an I Beam. But that makes the demo even better because H Beams are usually stronger and harder to cut through.
just got these at work, first blade cut through 2" brass shafts around 30 times, a few brass brackets, few hundred screws, and a 1 1/2 inch stainless shaft where it snapped in half, the second one did half a stainless shaft and still worked just as good, started cutting thin walled copper pipe 2 and 3 inch, cut like butter a few times then just stopped cutting, all the teeth were chipped. seems hit and miss but the stainless wasnt smart
the beam icon on all metal cutting blades has it. Diablo makes the best blades and has done so for decades. You could have over half the teeth missing and still cuts good.
I had to cut a long exhaust box in 3 pieces, because it was thick steel for radiation shielding the box was 1” thick. It took 6 of those Diablo blades.
I've been using Diablo blades lately. I don't know how they do it, but I haven't had to replace one yet. Been on for 4 months or so. Weekly use at least.
I always used Diablo blades but these new milwaukee blades torch nitrous carbide are no joke and seem to me to cut faster and last just as many cuts or more than the Diablo blades. I watched some test and it backed it up, Indeed they do cut faster.
I still would prefer my 7 inch grinder with a cutoff wheel. Tbh the baur 7 inch is pretty badass and you can get .045 disks for a 7 but not a 9. Sure 7 would fit on a 9 but the 7 is a lot more compact and less heavy. Just be careful not to bend those disks when cutting or they explode haha
I love Diablo blades for cutting conduits, but angle grinders are so much better in almost every aspect. Portabands are even better when they can be used.
I work at a place that sells these. They're expensive, but I'd accept no substitute for heavy duty work. Milwaukee makes a good blade for lighter duty work tho. My customers haven't had good luck with the Dewalt or Irwin branded blades tho. Fine for light duty, not much else.
Not gonna lie that is impressive. Have been using Irwin 12mm wood augers to drill timber house posts for the past 18 years and have recently swapped to Diablo 12mm wood augers and so far quite happy with them.
Used this blade to cut a pillow block bearing outer shell in half. The blade was no good after, but the fact that it even survived that long was impressive.
There one awesome little blade. didn't really care about useing one figured there just like ever other blade out. I was so wrong plus they won't bend so be careful on the kick back 😊
They’re no joke, used the cutoff whew version and these and they worked very well for cutting up a old boiler that wouldn’t fit out the the room. Highly recommend
It's not about the thickness. It's about hardness and strength. Most structural steel is A36 ( a relatively mild steel) or V50, which is significantly harder but still not as hard as a good knife.
@@swiftmatic I'm actually a blacksmith and yeah the thickness does make a huge difference. when you're cutting into something incredibly thick like that you build up a lot of heat. that usually softens the blade and makes it lot easier to damage. but... hardness is definitely another determining Factor
They recently came out with an "Amped Carbide" version that's like 2x or 3x more expensive too. I bought one recently and made 4 cuts through an old rusty 3 inch cast iron pipe. It was really impressive!!!
Used some diablos to cut out the engine crossmember on my ‘78 f250 handled it like butter but sent chunks of hot metal onto my hands good blades for sure
Personal preference, but I almost never hold the work piece against the tool guard. To me it reduces accuracy and increases fatigue in my hands and arms
