Starrett 68723 Bi-metal Jigsaw Blade 10-14 Tpi 5-pack

Product Description

The STARRETT 68723 is a bi-metal jigsaw blade designed for demanding cutting applications in metal, wood, and composite materials. At 5 inches in length and 3/8 inches wide with a 0.04-inch thickness, this blade offers rigidity without sacrificing flexibility in the cut. The wavy tooth set at 10-14 TPI provides smooth, controlled cuts through a range of material thicknesses. The U-shank mount fits a wide variety of jigsaw models. Sold in a 5-pack, this blade is suited for tradespeople who need a reliable supply on the job site. Installation requires no special tools beyond a compatible jigsaw.

This blade is well-suited for HVAC sheet metal work, plumbing rough-in, electrical enclosure cutting, and general fabrication tasks where a variable-TPI bi-metal blade delivers clean results. The 10-14 TPI variable tooth pattern handles both thinner gauge metals and thicker stock without blade changes, reducing downtime during multi-material jobs. The toothed cutting edge style ensures consistent material removal throughout the blade life. This blade is appropriate for residential and light commercial trade work wherever a jigsaw is the preferred tool.
