Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blades for Wood and Metal 228mm, 6 TPI - Set of 5

Bi‑Metal Reciprocating Saw Blades

The Bi‑Metal Reciprocating Saw Blades are engineered for precision cutting in both wood and metal applications. Each blade measures 228 mm (9 inches) in length, a standard size that fits most reciprocating saws on the market. The blades feature a tooth count of 6 TPI (teeth per inch), providing a balanced blend of speed and control for a variety of cutting tasks.

Set Composition

This product is sold as a set of five blades, ensuring that users have multiple replacements on hand without the need to reorder frequently. The set’s compact packaging makes it convenient for both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts.

Material & Construction

The blades are constructed from a bi‑metal alloy, combining a high‑strength steel core with a flexible, wear‑resistant outer layer. This dual‑material design delivers:

• Durability: The steel core resists bending and maintains cutting geometry under heavy loads.
• Flexibility: The outer layer absorbs shock from irregular materials, reducing the risk of blade breakage.
• Longevity: The bi‑metal construction extends the life of each tooth, allowing for more cuts before replacement is necessary.

Performance Characteristics

With a tooth count of 6 TPI, these blades strike an optimal balance between cutting speed and finish quality. The moderate tooth density allows:

• Fast material removal when cutting through dense wood or mild metals.
• Smooth cuts that minimize splintering in hardwoods.
• Reduced vibration during operation, enhancing user comfort and control.

Weight & Handling

The total weight of the set is 0.160 kg (160 g). This lightweight design reduces fatigue during prolonged use and makes the blades easy to handle when swapping or installing in a reciprocating saw.

Compatibility

These 228 mm blades are compatible with most standard reciprocating saw models that accept 9‑inch (228 mm) blades. They fit both handheld and table‑top configurations, making them suitable for a wide range of cutting environments.

Applications

The versatility of the bi‑metal construction allows these blades to excel in numerous tasks:

• Woodworking: Cutting through softwoods, hardwoods, and composite panels with minimal tearout.
• Metal Fabrication: Removing metal studs, pipes, and sheet metal with clean edges.
• Construction & Demolition: Quickly severing framing members, removing drywall, or cutting through nails embedded in wood.
• Renovation Projects: Trimming trim, cutting out fixtures, and shaping interior walls.

Maintenance Tips

To maximize blade life:

• Keep the blade guard in place to protect against accidental contact.
• Avoid forcing the saw through excessively hard materials; use a slower feed rate.
• Inspect teeth regularly for wear or damage and replace individual blades as needed.

Conclusion

The Bi‑Metal Reciprocating Saw Blades, 228 mm, 6 TPI, Set of Five combine robust construction with versatile performance. Their lightweight design, durable bi‑metal alloy, and balanced tooth count make them an excellent choice for professionals and hobbyists alike who require reliable cutting across both wood and metal substrates.
