The shortened 2.5-inch cutting length is intentional — it limits depth of cut to reduce the risk of contact with pipes and wires hidden behind drywall. The blade cuts cleanly through up to 5\/8-inch drywall and supports plunge cutting in any direction, making it well-suited for service access work where precision and controlled cutting depth matter more than speed or stroke length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is intended for trade professionals performing service calls that require cutting access holes in finished drywall — particularly in plumbing and electrical service scenarios where concealed pipes, conduit, or wiring are in close proximity to the cut zone. The fast-plunge geometry and short blade length together give the installer control in tight or small-diameter cutting situations. It is sold as a unit of measure of EA with a package quantity of 50 units per package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.5-inch blade length minimizes risk of contact with hidden pipe or wire during drywall cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCuts cleanly through drywall up to 5\/8 inch thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports cutting in all directions, including plunge cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimized for small-diameter and finesse cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Sawzall reciprocating saws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style blade for use with Milwaukee Sawzall reciprocating saws.
