American Saw Mfg Co 20573S656R Bimetal Recip Saw Blade 6in

Product Description

The AMERICAN SAW MFG CO 20573S656R is a 6-tooth bimetal reciprocating saw blade sized at 6 inches long by 3/4 inches wide by 0.050 inches thick. It is built for rough cutting applications in wood and is sold individually per card. The bimetal construction combines a flexible alloy steel body with harder cutting teeth, giving the blade durability under the stress of aggressive reciprocating saw use. Licensed tradespeople and experienced DIYers installing rough framing, cutting through dimensional lumber, or working demolition will find this blade suited to those fast, coarse cuts where finish quality is not the priority.

This blade is intended for rough work in wood using a standard reciprocating saw. Typical applications include framing cuts, branch removal, demolition teardown, and any scenario where cut speed matters more than surface finish. The 6-tooth-per-inch configuration removes material quickly, making it a practical choice for carpenters, plumbers, and HVAC techs cutting wood framing or blocking during rough-in work.

Key Features

• 6-inch blade length suits tight quarters and standard reciprocating saw chucks
• 6 teeth per inch optimized for fast, aggressive cuts in rough wood
• Bimetal construction for flexibility and tooth durability under load
• 0.050-inch blade thickness balances stiffness and clearance in the cut
• 3/4-inch blade width provides tracking stability during cuts
• Sold individually per card, allowing single-blade purchase

Compatibility

Designed as a standard universal-shank reciprocating saw blade for use with most reciprocating saws that accept a standard tang-style blade mount, intended for rough cutting in wood materials.

Installation Notes

Blade installation and changes should be performed with the reciprocating saw unplugged or the battery pack removed. Secure the blade firmly in the chuck before operation and confirm it is fully seated. HVAC techs, plumbers, and carpenters typically handle this blade swap without special tools beyond the saw's built-in blade-release mechanism. Wear appropriate eye and hand protection when operating or changing reciprocating saw blades.
