Milwaukee 48-01-7184 Thin Kerf Reciprocating Saw Blade 6 in

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE 48-01-7184 is a thin kerf, bi-metal reciprocating saw blade engineered for metal-cutting applications with SAWZALL-style reciprocating saws. Measuring 6 inches in length with a 108-tooth configuration, it features a Matrix II bi-metal tooth construction that delivers increased durability over standard blades. The optimized tooth form is designed for both extended blade life and faster cut speeds. A reinforced tang area, referred to as the Tough Neck design, uses structural ribs to resist tang breakage during high-stress cuts. This blade is a single-unit consumable installed and replaced by electricians, pipefitters, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors during metal demolition or rough-in work.

The 48-01-7184 is suited for thin kerf metal cutting in residential and commercial applications. The short profile and thin body allow the blade to navigate tight spaces and make flexible cuts where clearance is limited. A Grid Iron honeycomb pattern along the blade body increases rigidity and helps resist buckling under load. The 1/2 inch universal shank fits the majority of SAWZALL-compatible and standard reciprocating saw chucks available on the market, making it a practical drop-in consumable for most job-site saws.

Key Features

• Matrix II bi-metal teeth for increased cutting durability and tooth life
• Optimized tooth form engineered for extended blade life and improved cut speed
• Tough Neck reinforced tang ribs minimize breakage at the shank connection point
• Grid Iron honeycomb body pattern resists blade buckling under load
• Thin kerf profile allows flexible cuts in tight or confined spaces
• 1/2 inch universal shank for broad reciprocating saw compatibility

Compatibility

Fits reciprocating saws with a standard 1/2 inch universal shank interface, compatible with SAWZALL-style tool chucks. Designed as a drop-in consumable replacement blade for metal-cutting applications on tools accepting the universal shank standard.

Installation Notes

Blade replacement should be performed with the reciprocating saw fully powered off and the battery removed or the tool unplugged before handling the chuck mechanism. Use appropriate cut-resistant gloves when handling saw blades, as tooth edges remain sharp even on worn blades. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the chuck is securely tightened before resuming cuts. Inspect the blade for cracks or missing teeth before each use and replace immediately if damage is found.
