Jigsaw / Scroll Saw / Reciprocating Saw Blade AWTools AW49766, weight 200 g

AWTools AW49766 is a replacement blade designed for use with jigsaws, scroll saws and reciprocating saws. The blade features a wide body with a tungsten carbide (HM) cutting edge and a universal S-shank that allows quick fitting on reciprocating saws with an S-shank mount. It is intended for construction and renovation tasks and for workshop or DIY applications where cutting through masonry and similar building materials is required.

Advantages

The tungsten carbide (HM) edge improves durability and wear resistance compared with standard high-speed steel teeth, while the large tooth pitch enables fast and precise cutting with efficient chip evacuation and reduced clogging. The wide body and tooth geometry allow cutting close to edges and in tight or hard-to-reach areas. The universal shank design simplifies blade changes and ensures compatibility with most reciprocating saws on the market.

Suitable for

• Cutting bricks and sand-lime bricks
• Cutting aerated concrete and ceramic blocks
• Cutting plasterboards and similar building panels
• Construction, renovation and demolition tasks
• Workshop and DIY masonry cutting

How to use

Fit the AWTools AW49766 blade into the saw’s S-shank holder according to the saw manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring the blade is secured before operation. Select a cutting speed and feed appropriate for masonry materials and start with light, controlled passes to establish the cut line. Maintain steady pressure without forcing the blade; allow the carbide teeth and tooth pitch to remove material efficiently. Replace the blade if wear reduces cutting performance or if the carbide edge becomes damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, dust mask and hearing protection when cutting masonry. Secure the workpiece and clear dust regularly to maintain efficient chip evacuation. For prolonged cutting or deeper cuts, make several shallow passes rather than a single aggressive cut to extend blade life and improve control.
