JIG SAW BLADES
JIG SAW BLADE INFORMATION GUIDE
TPI (Teeth Per Inch)
To achieve the best possible cutting quality
and the fastest cutting time, it is important to match material thickness with the proper blade geometry; 6TPI - 24TPI (Fast - Slow, Thick-Thin, Wood-All Purpose-Metal); Progressive (All)
Progressor Tooth Design
6 TPI
14 TPI
24 TPI
PROGRESSIVE
The Progressor name comes from the progressive tooth pattern that graduates from high to low teeth per inch over the length of
the blade. The progressive tooth pattern is engineered so the blade can cut both thick and thin material cleanly and smoothly. The Progressor blades are the ideal blades when switching from one material thickness to another, eliminating the need for blade changes and saving time on the job. Available for wood, metal or all purpose applications.
HSS (High Speed Steel)
Taper Ground
For speed and increased blade life.
Thick Material, Tip Engineered
Ideal for metal cutting
725381
Thin Material, Small Teeth
Ground Teeth
For superior speed and clean cuts.
Large Teeth
For easy plunge cuts.
TOOTH DESIGN
Designed with optimal tooth spacing, shape and cutting angle to provide the best possible speed, cut and performance.
Milled and Side Set
For fast, rough cuts in wood and plastics.
BLADE MATERIAL
HIGH CARBON STEEL (HCS)
Milled and Wavy Set
For cuts in metal, non-ferrous metal, aluminum and plastics.
Ground and Side Set
For clean, fast cuts in wood and plastics.
Ground and Taper-Ground
For precise, fine, clean cuts in wood.
For use in softer materials such as wood, laminated chipboard and plastics.
HIGH SPEED STEEL (HSS)
Fully hardened for use in metal, aluminum & non-ferrous metals.
BI-METAL (BI-M)
Highly flexible and tough combination of harder HSS teeth and a more flexible HCS body: suitable to use for the most demanding applications.
TUNGSTEN CARBIDE (HCS/Grit or HCS/TCT)
Use HCS blades coated with tungsten carbide grit to cut abrasive materials such as glass, ceramic tile, cast-iron and brick. Use HCS blades with tungsten carbide teeth for cutting abrasive materials such as FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics), hardwoods, aerated concrete, bricks, and fiber cement board.
