Milwaukee 48-00-1304 Reciprocating Saw Blade 9 in 5 Tpi Wood

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-00-1304 is a 9-inch reciprocating saw blade engineered for cutting limbs, branches, and green wood. Built on a steel body with an HSS cutting edge, it runs 5 TPI with fleam ground teeth and deep gullets that pull through wood fibers efficiently. At 0.049 inches thick and 3/4 inches wide, the blade maintains rigidity through the cut while the bright finish resists surface buildup. The universal tang fits the majority of reciprocating saw chucks on the market, making it a straightforward drop-in for most job-site tools. Licensed tradespeople, arborists, and experienced DIYers use this blade for demolition and outdoor clearing work.

This blade is purpose-built for wood-cutting applications, including pruning green wood, clearing brush, and cutting dimensional lumber in demo scenarios. The fleam ground tooth geometry cuts aggressively in both the push and pull stroke, which reduces operator fatigue during extended cuts. The 1/2-inch universal toothed-edge tang seats securely in standard reciprocating saw chucks without adapters. It is suited to residential and light commercial work where a portable saw is the right tool for the task.

Key Features

• Fleam ground teeth designed to cut cleanly in both forward and return stroke directions
• 5 TPI tooth pitch optimized for fast, aggressive cuts through wood and green branches
• HSS cutting edge provides hardness and edge retention in abrasive wood materials
• Deep gullets clear chips and debris to prevent blade binding mid-cut
• Universal toothed-edge tang fits most standard reciprocating saw chucks without adapters
• Steel body at 0.049 inches thick for rigidity throughout the cut stroke

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement blade for use in standard reciprocating saws accepting a universal toothed-edge tang.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a general tradesperson or experienced user following the saw manufacturer's blade-change procedure. Always power down the tool and disconnect it from its power source or remove the battery before changing blades. Confirm the tang is fully seated and the chuck mechanism is locked before starting a cut. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection when operating reciprocating saws.
