Reciprocating blades 5 Pack (L) 305mm – (W) 20mm – Thickness 1.3mm – 6TPI Wood

Description

What this blade is for

This 5 pack of Morse reciprocating saw blades is 305mm (12″) long, 20mm (3/4″) wide and 1.3mm thick, with 6 teeth per inch. They are listed for cutting wood.

The 6 TPI pitch gives large teeth just over 4mm apart that remove timber fast. Pair that with a 305mm length and you have a blade that will reach through sleepers, beams, large posts and thick logs in a single pass.

What sets this blade apart from the 0.9mm version is the 1.3mm body. A long blade naturally wants to flex, and the extra thickness keeps it straighter, so cuts through heavy timber stay truer and the blade copes better with tough, sustained work. If you mostly need to cut flush to a surface, the thinner blade's flex is more useful.

How to check this is the right blade

Check your old blade is 305mm long and 20mm wide, and use a caliper to confirm the 1.3mm thickness: it will feel noticeably stiffer than a 0.9mm blade. Count 6 teeth along one inch. Our how blades are measured and which TPI do I need guides have more on measuring blades and choosing a pitch.

Frequently asked questions

Is this blade suitable for railway sleepers?

Its length and coarse teeth suit thick timber like sleepers. Check reclaimed sleepers for metal fixings first, because this blade is listed for wood only.

Why choose a thicker blade?

A 1.3mm blade bends less, which gives straighter cuts and better control on long, heavy cuts in timber.
