Milwaukee 48-00-5789 Torch Saw Blade 18 Tpi 12 in 5 Pack

Product Description

The Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp 48-00-5789 is a 5-pack of 12-inch Torch reciprocating saw blades ground to 18 teeth per inch (TPI). These blades are engineered for high-demand cutting in demolition, rescue, and remodeling applications. The 18 TPI grind delivers fast, controlled cuts through metal pipe, structural channel, tubing, and angle iron up to 4 inches, as well as nail-embedded wood. Built for use in Sawzall-style reciprocating saws, the 48-00-5789 is a go-to consumable for trade professionals who need reliable performance across mixed materials without swapping blades mid-job. Each pack includes 5 blades, making it practical for stocking a service van or job-site kit.

These Torch blades are suited for residential and commercial demolition work, structural remodeling, and emergency rescue scenarios where material type is unpredictable. They handle a wide range of ferrous metals including steel pipe, angle iron, channels, and tubing up to 4 inches, and transition effectively into nail-embedded or dimensional lumber. HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general construction trades commonly keep these blades on hand for rough-in tear-out and retrofit work where metal and wood appear together in the cut path.
