Reciprocating blades 5 Pack (L) 305mm – (W) 20mm – Thickness 1.3mm – 10/14TPI Hybrid

Description

What this blade is for

These Morse reciprocating saw blades come in a 5 pack and are 305mm (12″) long, 20mm (3/4″) wide and 1.3mm thick, with a 10/14 variable tooth pitch. They are listed for wood and metal.

A 10/14 blade mixes larger and smaller teeth along the edge, with spacing ranging from about 2.5mm to 1.8mm. The variation helps reduce vibration and lets the blade cope with changing thicknesses, such as cutting through timber and then into a bolt, nail plate or metal pipe. It is a good choice for demolition, renovation and general strip-out where materials are mixed. Read more about variable pitch teeth.

The heavier 1.3mm body makes the blade stiffer than a 0.9mm one, so the long 305mm blade bends less and tracks more steadily in heavy work.

How to check this is the right blade

Confirm the length is 305mm and the width 20mm, and check the body is around 1.3mm thick. Because the pitch varies, count teeth over a few inches and average them: the result should fall between 10 and 14 per inch. Our how blades are measured and which TPI do I need guides explain this further.

Frequently asked questions

What does 10/14 TPI mean?

It means the tooth spacing varies along the blade, between 10 and 14 teeth per inch, rather than staying constant.

Is a 1.3mm blade better for demolition?

For heavy, sustained work it usually is, because the thicker body resists bending and wandering. A 0.9mm blade is better when you need flex for flush cuts.
