Starrett 68750 Bi-metal Jig Saw Blade Set 5 Piece

Product Description

The STARRETT 68750 is a 5-piece bi-metal jig saw blade set covering a range of cutting applications in a single kit. The set includes blades ranging from 3 inches to 5 inches in length, with tooth counts spanning 10-14 TPI up to 32 TPI, allowing techs and tradespeople to switch between aggressive cuts and fine finish work without reaching for a second set. Blade width runs from 3/16 inches to 3/8 inches, and blade thickness is 0.04 inches throughout the set. All blades feature a U-shank mount and a wavy tooth set for smooth, controlled cutting.

This blade set is suited for general-purpose cutting tasks encountered across plumbing, electrical, HVAC rough-in, and light fabrication work. The range of TPI values makes the set practical for cutting materials like conduit, PVC, sheet metal, wood framing, and composite panels. The wavy tooth geometry reduces blade binding and helps manage chip clearance in both straight and contour cuts. Having multiple blade lengths and tooth pitches in one package covers most trade-side cutting scenarios without requiring individual blade purchases.

Key Features

• 5-piece set includes blades from 3 inches to 5 inches in length
• TPI range of 10-14 to 32 covers coarse and fine cutting in one kit
• Bi-metal construction for durability across wood, plastic, and light metal
• U-shank design for broad jig saw tool compatibility
• Wavy tooth set (5-wave pattern) reduces binding and improves chip clearance
• Blade thickness of 0.04 inches throughout the set for consistent flex characteristics

Compatibility

Designed for use with U-shank compatible jig saws. Blade lengths of 3 inches to 5 inches and U-shank mounting are standard fitment across a wide range of corded and cordless jig saw models that accept U-shank blades.

Installation Notes

Blade changes should be performed with the jig saw unplugged or battery removed. U-shank blades are secured by a set screw or lever-release mechanism depending on the tool model — consult the tool manufacturer guidelines before swapping blades. Wear appropriate hand protection when handling bare blades. Select the correct TPI for the material being cut: lower TPI for faster cuts in wood or thick stock, higher TPI for cleaner cuts in thin sheet metal or plastic.
