Built with a straight profile and a universal shank, this blade fits most standard reciprocating saws used in the trade. The tooth material is carbide tipped, which provides extended life over standard bi-metal blades when working through ferrous and non-ferrous metals. At 10 teeth per inch (TPI) with a constant pitch pattern and straight tooth form, it delivers aggressive, controlled cuts in medium-gauge metal. Blade thickness is 0.050 inches, providing the rigidity needed for straight cuts without flex. This blade is sold individually and is a practical single-unit replacement for field use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for residential and commercial applications where metal cutting is required during installation or service work. HVAC technicians use reciprocating saw blades like this when cutting ductwork, conduit stubs, or metal framing during equipment changeouts. Plumbers and pipefitters reach for this style of blade when cutting through metal pipe or strapping in tight spaces. Electricians use it for cutting EMT, metal brackets, or junction box knockouts during rough-in work. The 12-inch length is particularly useful in overhead or confined-space cuts where a longer blade provides reach without repositioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbide-tipped teeth for extended blade life on metal cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-inch blade length provides reach in confined or overhead work areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 TPI constant pitch for aggressive cuts in medium-gauge metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal shank fits most reciprocating saw models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngled blade tip style aids in plunge cuts and starting cuts in tight spots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight profile and 0.050-inch thickness support rigid, accurate cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeatures a universal shank designed to fit most standard reciprocating saws.
