AWTOOLS AW49760 jigsaw/scroll saw/reciprocating saw blade

AWTools AW49760 jigsaw/scroll saw/reciprocating saw blade is a purpose-built cutting accessory for working with dense and abrasive building materials. Made of carbon steel with carbide teeth, this blade is designed to maintain edge hardness while enabling fast material removal. It delivers coarse cuts suitable for demolition, rough shaping and rapid removal of material in masonry and construction tasks.

Advantages

The carbide-tipped teeth provide enhanced wear resistance compared with plain carbon steel blades, extending usable life when cutting bricks, silicate blocks, aerated concrete and fiber cement. The carbon steel body offers the flexibility needed to withstand reciprocating motion without excessive brittleness. The blade geometry and coarse tooth pitch enable aggressive cutting speed and efficient debris clearance in hard and porous materials.

Suitable for

• Cutting bricks and blocks
• Working with silicate and aerated concrete
• Shaping fiber cement and cement-based boards
• Rough cutting of porotherm and other building materials
• Fast material removal in renovation and demolition

Key specifications

• Blade material: carbon steel with carbide teeth
• Cut type: coarse/aggressive cuts
• Intended use: masonry and cement-based materials
• Typical applications: jigsaw, scroll saw and reciprocating saw operation
• Weight: 77 g

How to use

Install the blade in the compatible saw according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring secure fastening and correct orientation of the carbide teeth. Start cutting at low speed to establish a controlled groove, then increase speed as appropriate for the material and tool. Apply steady, moderate feed pressure—let the blade do the work to avoid overheating or premature wear. Use appropriate PPE, including eye protection, dust mask and hearing protection, and secure the workpiece before cutting.

Usage recommendations

For best results when cutting bricks, aerated concrete or fiber cement, use a saw with vibration control and dust extraction where possible. Periodically inspect the carbide tips for wear and replace the blade if cutting performance declines or damage is visible. Avoid forcing the blade through dense sections; allow cooling pauses when performing extended cuts.
