What saw is it going in Bill?

Evolution do blades for stainless, but not in that size.
Alfra do metal cutting blades, again, not that size.
Makita do metal blades, 30mm bore, but only 185mm...not stainless specific though.

Hi Hitch,
I do know !
It is a Makita Circular Saw.
I could found one but 185mm only not 210mm

30mm bore is a common size for wood working kit which run at MUCH higher rpm than metal cutting saws. Aluminium aside it won't work and most metal cutting blades won't be rated for the rpm i.e. potentially dangerous too. A 230mm metal cutting blade will typically be rated for around 2500rpm, wood cutting about double that

TCT metal cutting saws (dry cut chop saw/trim saw) use a 25mm bore and stainless specific blades are horrifically expensive

Proper cold saws (industrial metal cutting kit) are 32mm bore iirc and are happy enough munching through stainless all day long but they're very different beasts in all respects

Obviously not a makita metal cutting saw then.

I'd take hotrodders advice, use a more suitable tool for the job.

Perhaps we could suggest an alternative method if you tell us what you plan on doing....

Yeap Hitch it is not a Makita metal cutting Saw.
It purchased to cut timber.
Just occasionally want to slide some small pipes stainless steel for my Boat.
Not heavy stuff so thought that if able to find a Blade will be really handy.
I have found one but it is 180mm with a bore of 20 MAX RPM 5800 , so not what I need.
The bore size is the main thing there!

Just use a grinder Bill, thin disc.
Easy.
