MAKITA B-43234 Reciprocating Saw Blade Length 152 mm 5-8 TPI BIM (Pack of 5)
The MAKITA B-43234 reciprocating saw blade is a high-quality Bi-Metal (BiM) blade that combines the flexibility of high-carbon steel (HCS) with the strength of high-speed steel (HSS), resulting in shatter resistance and a longer service life. The blade has an overall length of 152 mm and a thickness of 1.6 mm, featuring a variable tooth pitch of 5-8 TPI (Teeth Per Inch), which is suitable for cutting a variety of materials, especially wood with nails and metal in demolition work. The blade is designed with "Milled and Side Set Teeth" for aggressive and fast cutting.

Specifications
- Bi-Metal (BiM) material: The bi-metal construction provides high blade flexibility, preventing breakage when cutting through metal or wood with nails, increasing durability and extending service life.
- 5-8 TPI variable teeth: This variable tooth pitch provides high cutting efficiency for both rough, fast cutting in thick materials (5 TPI) and finer cutting in thinner materials (8 TPI).
- Designed for rough cutting: Milled and Side Set Teeth are ideal for demolition and cutting jobs requiring speed without prioritizing cut surface smoothness.

Applications & Usage
- Nailed Wood: Ideal for cutting old structural timber or pallets with embedded nails.
- Chipboard / Particleboard: Can cut these sheet materials efficiently.
- Metal: Can be used to cut metal thanks to the durable BiM material.
- General/Demolition: A versatile blade for professionals requiring a saw blade for combined wood and metal cutting tasks.
