FAQs
What types of wood can this blade cut?

What is the maximum cutting depth?

Is this blade suitable for metal?
No, this blade is specifically designed for cutting wood materials. It is not intended for cutting metal or plastic.
Will this blade fit any jigsaw?

How should I maintain the blade?

What does 'bi-metal' construction mean for durability?
Bi-metal construction combines two types of metal, typically a flexible spring steel body with a high-speed steel cutting edge, which makes the blade more durable, heat-resistant, and longer-lasting.
Troubleshooting
Blade not cutting straight
Ensure the blade is securely clamped in the jigsaw. Check if the blade is bent or damaged. Use a slower speed for more control on complex cuts.
Blade breaking prematurely
Reduce cutting speed and avoid forcing the blade. Ensure you are not exceeding the recommended cutting depth for the material. Inspect for any obstructions in the material being cut.
Blade struggles to cut through nails
While designed for wood with nails, excessive or large nails can still strain the blade. If possible, remove large nails before cutting. Clean debris from the blade teeth after encountering nails.
