Bosch t318b100 Jig Saw Blade 14 Tpi Metal 100 Pack

Product Description

The BOSCH t318b100 is a T-shank jig saw blade engineered for cutting pipes, profiles, and sheet metal. Each blade measures 5.25 inches in overall length with 4.25 inches of working length, and the 14 teeth per inch (TPI) tooth geometry delivers smooth, fast cuts through ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Constructed from high-speed steel (HSS), these blades are built for extended service life under repetitive metal-cutting conditions. This pack contains 100 blades, making it a practical stock option for shops and field technicians who work regularly with metal fabrication or pipe fitting tasks.

These blades are suited for cutting medium to thin metals in the 5/64-inch to 5/16-inch thickness range. Compatible pipe and profile diameters run from 5/64 inch to 3.125 inches. Applications include structural profiles, conduit, tubing, and sheet metal panels found in HVAC, plumbing, and general metal fabrication work. The T-shank mount fits the vast majority of modern jig saw tools, making these blades a go-to consumable across multiple trade settings. Using a proper cutting lubricant when working with metal is strongly recommended to extend blade life and improve cut quality.

Installation Notes

Blade installation and changes should be performed with the tool powered off and unplugged or the battery removed. T-shank blades are tool-less on most modern jig saws, but consult the saw manufacturer instructions for proper blade seating and retention. Apply a suitable metal-cutting lubricant to the cut line before and during cutting to reduce heat buildup and extend blade life. Dispose of used blades in a puncture-resistant container in accordance with shop safety protocols.
