Each blade features a High Speed Steel cutting edge micro-welded to a flexible High Carbon Steel back, producing a shatterproof construction that holds up under demanding rough-in work. The keyhole profile and 5\/7 variable pitch tooth pattern combine a coarser overall pitch with varied tooth sizes to drive fast, controlled cuts through framing lumber, structural wood, and material containing fasteners. This 5-pack is suited for HVAC rough-in crews, plumbers, and general construction trades who cycle through blades quickly on the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese blades are designed for reciprocating saw applications where the workpiece includes wood with nails, making them a practical choice for demolition, rough-in framing cuts, and mild contoured cuts in wood. The variable pitch tooth geometry reduces blade grab and helps clear chips efficiently, which extends blade life when cutting through mixed-material wood assemblies. Each blade measures 12 inches in length with a 3\/4-inch width and 0.049-inch thickness, providing the rigidity needed for straight plunge cuts and the flexibility to handle slight contour work without fracturing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiMetal construction: High Speed Steel cutting edge micro-welded to a High Carbon Steel back for shatterproof performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/7 variable pitch teeth per inch for aggressive cutting with reduced blade grab\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeyhole profile designed for plunge cuts and mild contours in wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for wood with nails, making it suitable for demolition and rough-in work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMilled cutting edge for consistent tooth geometry across the blade length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as a 5-pack for high-volume or multi-tech jobsite use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard reciprocating saw replacement blade compatible with universal reciprocating saw shank fittings commonly found on professional-grade reciprocating saws used in HVAC, plumbing, and construction trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlade changes should be performed with the saw unplugged or the battery pack removed before touching the blade clamp. Secure the blade firmly in the chuck before operating to prevent slippage during plunge or contour cuts. Always wear appropriate eye protection when cutting wood with nails, as fastener contact can deflect debris. Confirm the blade shank is fully seated and locked per the tool manufacturer's guidelines before resuming operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.049 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/7 Variable Pitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: BiMetal - High Speed Steel edge, High Carbon Steel back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wood with nails, rough-in, mild contours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfile\u003c\/strong\u003e: Keyhole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 per pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MALCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12kh8-5pk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MALCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383819370802,"sku":"12KH8-5PK","price":69.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312674219.webp?v=1782608345","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/malco-12kh8-5pk-bimetal-reciprocating-saw-blade-12-in-5-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
