Eagle Cutting Tool RB-618-M Bi-metal Reciprocating Blade 18 Tpi

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL RB-618-M is a bi-metal reciprocating saw blade engineered for cutting metal. At 6 inches in length with an 18 teeth-per-inch (TPI) tooth count, this blade delivers controlled, clean cuts through ferrous and non-ferrous metals including conduit, pipe, angle iron, and sheet stock. The bi-metal construction bonds a high-speed steel tooth edge to a flexible alloy steel body, giving the blade durability under stress while resisting tooth breakage during demanding cuts. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general trade contractors reach for this blade when working in tight spaces where angle grinders are impractical.

The RB-618-M is suited for residential and light commercial trade work involving metal pipe, electrical conduit, strut channel, and similar ferrous or non-ferrous stock. The 18 TPI configuration is optimized for thinner-walled material and tubing where a finer tooth pitch reduces burring and maintains cut quality. It fits standard reciprocating saw chucks and is a practical single-blade option for service techs carrying one saw on the job.

Key Features

• 6-inch blade length suitable for confined-space metal cutting
• 18 TPI tooth configuration optimized for thin-wall tubing and sheet metal
• Bi-metal construction bonds high-speed steel teeth to a flexible alloy steel body
• Resists tooth breakage and flexing under reciprocating load
• Fits standard universal reciprocating saw chucks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use blade compatible with standard universal-shank reciprocating saws used in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with reciprocating saw operation. Power down and disconnect the saw from its power source or remove the battery before changing blades. Secure the blade firmly in the chuck per the saw manufacturer's instructions before resuming operation. Eye protection and cut-resistant gloves are standard PPE when cutting metal stock.
