Milwaukee Tool 48-00-6553 Reciprocating Saw Blade 5 Pack

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 48-00-6553 is a carbide-tipped reciprocating saw blade engineered for cutting metal in demanding trade applications. Each blade measures 12 inches in length and 1 inch in width, with a constant 10 teeth per inch (TPI) pitch pattern and a 0.05-inch blade thickness. The angled blade tip and straight tooth form support aggressive, controlled cuts through medium-gauge metal. The universal shank fits the broadest range of reciprocating saws on the market. This listing includes a pack of five blades, making it a practical choice for HVAC techs, plumbers, and electricians who cut conduit, pipe, and strut regularly.

These blades are suited for residential and commercial service work where metal cutting is a frequent task. Typical applications include cutting steel conduit, copper and iron pipe, unistrut, threaded rod, and sheet metal during installation or demolition. The carbide-tipped teeth hold an edge longer than standard bi-metal blades, reducing blade changes during extended cutting sessions. The 5-pack quantity aligns with the needs of crews running multiple tools on a job site.

Installation Notes

Blade installation and removal must be performed with the saw unplugged or the battery removed. Confirm the blade shank is fully seated and the blade clamp is locked before operation. Eye protection and cut-resistant gloves are standard PPE when operating reciprocating saws. Inspect blades for cracks or missing carbide tips before each use and replace damaged blades immediately.
