Product Description

The Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp 48-40-0522 is a 5.375-inch, 16-tooth circular saw blade engineered for framing and general wood cutting applications. Built from high-quality steel with a sharp cutting edge, this blade is designed to deliver fast, clean cuts through dimensional lumber, plywood, and other soft materials. Sold in a package of 5 blades, it is a practical choice for contractors and trade professionals who need reliable stock on the job site. The compact 5.375-inch diameter makes it compatible with smaller circular saws commonly used in tight framing scenarios.

This blade is intended for residential and light commercial framing work. It performs well on dimensional lumber, plywood, OSB, and similar soft building materials. The 16-tooth configuration is optimized for aggressive, fast cuts rather than finish work, making it well suited for rough framing, sheathing, and general carpentry tasks where cut speed matters more than surface quality. Licensed carpenters and general contractors are the primary installers and users of this blade type.
