Freud DJT121BF5 Bi-metal Jig Saw Blade 12 Tpi 5 Pack

Product Description

The FREUD DJT121BF5 is a 5-pack of 3-3/8 inch bi-metal T-shank jig saw blades engineered for cutting thick metal. Each blade runs at 12 TPI and is rated for metal stock ranging from 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch thickness. The cutting edge is ultra-hardened to deliver up to 5 times longer service life compared to standard jig saw blades. A back taper blade geometry combined with a perma-shield non-stick coating reduces heat buildup and pitch accumulation, resulting in fast, clean cuts through ferrous and non-ferrous metal. Licensed contractors, sheet metal workers, and experienced trade installers are the primary users of this blade.

These blades are suited for residential and commercial metal fabrication, conduit trimming, ductwork modification, and structural metal cutting tasks. The T-shank interface is the current industry standard for jig saw tooling. The blades are compatible with both cordless and corded jig saws that accept a T-shank, and the design also fits most U-shank jig saws when used with a combo chuck. The 12 TPI tooth count is optimized for thicker metal stock where a finer pitch controls chip load and reduces blade deflection.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction delivers up to 5 times longer blade life than standard blades

T-shank design fits all combo and most U-shank cordless and corded jig saws. Intended for metal cutting applications with stock thickness between 1/8 inch and 1/4 inch.

Installation Notes

Blade changes must be performed with the jig saw unplugged or the battery removed. Verify the chuck accepts T-shank tooling before installing. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling bare blades. Follow the tool and blade manufacturer guidance on maximum speed settings for the material being cut.
