Hello,
I want to use SP6000 track saw to cut aluminium profiles (+ – 2mm thick)
also I may need to cut metal insulated panel (0.5mm metal sheet)
What saw blade should I use?
Makita has specific saw blades made for the track saw. There is a non-ferrous blade for metal cutting available. Look through the blade offerings at tool nut or Home Depot website as well as the Makita website

Thank you!
most of the blades I saw has Carbide Teeth, so can I use any blade with 60+ Carbide teeth?
edit:
I think I found the blade I need: Makita A-99976 6-1/2″ 56T Carbide-Tipped Cordless Plunge Saw Blade
and its not cheap 60$ on amazon…
In this part of the world the correct blades would be B-56823 (thin kerf) or B-15540
But basically any blade with lots of teeth as you say. I use 60-100 teeth on my mitre saw when cutting Ali. When cutting ACM (0.4mm ali both sides of 3mm plastic) with a circular saw and a 48 tooth wood blade it cuts fine, just don’t push too quick.
