Freud DS1205FG 12 in 5 Tooth Wood Pruning Reciprocating Blade 5pk

Product Description

The FREUD DS1205FG is a 12-inch, 5-tooth reciprocating saw blade engineered for wood pruning applications. The blade features a hardened cutting edge designed for extended service life and a specialized tip geometry that allows faster, easier plunge cuts into wood stock. This blade is suited for use in reciprocating saws handled by general contractors, arborists, and maintenance technicians cutting dimensional lumber, branches, and pressure treated wood. It ships in a pack of 5 blades. The DS1205FG is not intended for cutting wood that contains embedded nails or metal fasteners.

This blade is designed for pruning applications where clean, controlled cuts through wood are required. It performs well in residential and light commercial settings, including tree and shrub pruning, demolition of wood framing free of fasteners, and cutting pressure treated lumber in fence or deck work. The low tooth count of 5 TPI promotes aggressive, fast material removal through green wood and dimensional lumber rather than finish cutting.

Installation Notes

Blade installation and removal should be performed with the saw unplugged or the battery pack removed. Ensure the blade clamp or chuck mechanism is fully engaged before operation. Inspect the blade for cracks or wear before each use and replace if the cutting edge is visibly dull or damaged. Always verify the workpiece is free of nails, staples, or other metal fasteners before cutting with this blade.
