I have the Ridgid R3400 5 inch cement board saw and am installing Hardie board and batten. I had an older blade on my saw when I started and it burned up fast. I assumed that it was an old blade as I couldn't remember how long ago I had replaced it so I bought this blade.I made several cuts through the 1/4 inch (I think it is close to that) panels and then needed to cut some 5/4 3 1/2 inch trim. It made it through 1 cut and burned up on the second cut. This blade is not a PCD (polycrystalline Diamond) blade but says that it is specially made for hardie siding. The label says it is made of TiCo Hi density carbide.I used it for 5 minutes and it was done. If you just stick with Hardie backer board and lap siding it will be fine. I am disappointed because I can't find another solution and will probably throw way this saw.

All of the teeth were gone in four feet of Hardi siding. Just taking off the old trim to put in new windows and new trim. I have worked in commercial, and housing building trade since 1988. I have never had a problem with Diablo blades. I have 12", 10" and 7 1/4" saw blades, all have been outstanding. Ended up using an 4 1/2" old segmented diamond blade, it puts out more dust and take just a little longer to cut, but worked great.

I used it for Hardie board, and did not see in the description that you could not use it for a small shed Hardie Board project (200 square feet). I was gentle with it and it did not last. It cut well for the first couple of hours. I have had other Diablo products that worked well. Did I use if for wrong application?

I dismantled a large shed so it be relocated, and had to make about 44LF of cuts in 5/16” Hardie backer. By the time I had to make the last 16’ feet of cuts, it was missing 2 out of 6 teeth. To be fair, I might have hit a nail or two, but I’ve done that with a cheap wood blade and the carbide teeth stay on and it just keeps on cutting. I expected this blade to last longer than it did.I used the blade on a Makita cordless circular saw.

Used this to side a 22x9ft addition with Hardie plank. Got through the project without wearing it out, including some rip cuts with the table saw. Great price for the smaller blade.

Cuts great. Lasts a long time. Stay away from any other brands. I've tried them. I even put it on the table saw for a couple rips. Awesome value.

Cutting hardie backer is a pain. However this blade can be used with any skill saw and makes cutting these panels as painless as you can hope for. I initially installed it backwards and it still worked pretty well. Once I realized my mistake and installed it correctly I was pleasantly surprised that it cut even better. If you have a large project requiring lots of cutting of fiber cement board, do yourself a favor and use this thing, but don't forget to also wear a mask as the dust is very harmful to the lungs.

I bought this blade to use in a portable Bosch saw to cut hardie cement soffit boards. It works to perfection; making my job very easy. I'm using the vented soffit boards as underpinning on my house. Over the years, I have used several different products for the underpinning, but this has been the best yet. The blade has contributed to the success of this project making it ultimately easier than I had expected. I would recommend this blade without hesitation.
