Irwin 3072300 T-shank Carbide Grit Jig Saw Blade

Product Description

The IRWIN 3072300 is a T-shank jig saw blade designed for cutting hard or abrasive materials that standard bi-metal or HSS blades cannot handle effectively. The carbide grit cutting edge replaces traditional teeth with a continuous abrasive surface, making it suitable for cutting tile, fiberglass, cement board, and similar materials. At 3 inches in length with a 5/32 inch grit width, this blade fits standard T-shank jig saws. It is sold individually and is commonly used by contractors, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians who need to cut through non-wood substrates during rough-in or finish work.

This blade is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial applications where a contractor needs to cut tile, ceramic, fiberglass duct board, cement board, or other abrasive materials with a standard T-shank jig saw. It is well suited for trade work involving penetrations through hard wall materials, bath surrounds, or composite panels. Its carbide grit design allows controlled cuts in materials where toothed blades would strip or bind.

Key Features

• Carbide grit edge cuts abrasive materials including tile, fiberglass, and cement board
• T-shank mount for tool-free blade changes on compatible jig saws
• 3 inch blade length for standard depth cutting in trade applications
• 5/32 inch grit width for controlled, narrow kerf cutting
• Sold as individual blade, unit of measure is each

Compatibility

Designed to fit T-shank jig saws from manufacturers that accept the universal T-shank (also known as bayonet shank) blade interface, which is the widely adopted standard across professional-grade and prosumer jig saw platforms.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by any trade professional using a T-shank compatible jig saw. Disconnect the tool from its power source before changing blades. Insert the T-shank into the blade clamp until it seats fully and the locking mechanism engages. When cutting tile or cement board, use appropriate eye and respiratory protection due to fine particulate generated by carbide grit cutting.
