Milwaukee 48-42-5300 4in 6TPI T-shank Jigsaw Blade 5-pack

Product Description

The Milwaukee Electric Tool Corp 48-42-5300 is a 5-pack of 4-inch, 6 TPI bi-metal T-shank jigsaw blades designed for cutting a wide range of materials in a single blade format. The bi-metal construction pairs a high-speed steel tooth edge with a flexible alloy steel body, giving the blade cutting durability without brittleness under load. The T-shank interface provides a secure, tool-free blade change on virtually all modern jigsaws. These blades are sized at 4 inches in cutting length and ground to 6 teeth per inch, making them appropriate for medium-to-coarse cuts through wood, metal, plastic, and composite materials. HVAC sheet metal fabricators, electricians, plumbers, and general trade mechanics will find this pack suitable for rough-in and retrofit work where varied material types are encountered on the same job.

The 48-42-5300 blade pack is suited for use in residential and light commercial trade applications. Typical install and use scenarios include cutting access openings in drywall over metal stud framing, trimming plastic conduit bodies, notching wood framing near existing plumbing or electrical runs, and cutting sheet metal ductwork during HVAC rough-in. The 6 TPI tooth geometry favors faster, aggressive cuts over fine finish work. The 5-pack quantity supports extended service across a full work day without stopping for blade replacement.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction combines a high-speed steel cutting edge with a flexible alloy steel body for durability under variable load
• T-shank interface fits virtually all current-production jigsaws with tool-free blade clamp systems
• 4-inch blade length provides adequate depth for most structural and mechanical rough-in cutting tasks
• 6 TPI tooth pitch delivers aggressive material removal through wood, metal, plastic, and composites
• 5-pack format reduces job-site downtime from blade wear during extended cutting sessions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-format T-shank jigsaw blade compatible with standard T-shank jigsaw tool clamps across current jigsaw models accepting the universal T-shank interface.

Installation Notes

Jigsaw blade changes should be performed with the tool unplugged or the battery removed before touching the blade clamp mechanism. Allow a recently used blade to cool before handling, as bi-metal blades retain heat after extended cuts through metal. Follow the tool manufacturer's blade-change procedure for the specific jigsaw body in use. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling bare blades.
