Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The DeWalt DW4860 12-inch 6 TPI demolition bi-metal reciprocating saw blade is a thicker blade built for demolition. This blade can also be used to cut a wide variety of materials, including wood, plastic, and drywall. In general, a lower tooth count cuts faster, but provides a rougher finish, and this 6 TPI (Teeth Per Inch) blade is no different. Each DW4860 features bi-metal construction with reinforced teeth for increased durability, anti-stick coating for reduced friction, and matrix II steel with 8-percent cobalt for longer blade life. In addition, this reciprocating blade features a +/- 3-degree shank angle for aggressive cuts, a wider blade design to prevent breakage, and reinforced teeth for increased durability when cutting nails and other metals. This all-purpose blade (sold in a pack of 5) will fit all brands of reciprocating saws.

5.0 out of 5 stars stiff competition, August 11, 2004

This review is from: DEWALT DW4860 12-Inch 6 TPI Demolition Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade, 5-Pack (Tools & Home Improvement)

I build houses out of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), see www.safecrete.com for more on them. AAC is a very soft concrete product that is very workable. Any tool that will cut wood will cut through AAC many times faster. I use a sawzall a lot to cut electrical and plumbing chases and outlets. The short stroke of a recipricating saw creates much less dust than a circular saw or router.

There are two reasons why these demolition blades work best for me. They are stiff. A thiner blade tends to curve inside the block when cutting. They have widely spaced teeth. AAC cuts so easy excavating the cut material is more of a concern. These larger wider spaced teeth offer better excavation of dust.
