Jigsaw blade Bosch T101AO High carbon steel

The Bosch T101AO High carbon steel jigsaw blade is designed for clean, efficient cuts in wood. Made from high carbon steel (HCS), this blade combines flexibility with edge retention for general woodworking tasks. The blade has a working length of 5.9 cm and an overall length of 8.2 cm, with a tooth spacing of 1.4 mm that supports smooth cutting results. Each blister pack contains two identical blades, providing a ready spare for continued work.

Advantages

High carbon steel construction ensures good cutting performance and resistance to wear when working with soft and medium-density wood. The 1.4 mm tooth pitch promotes fine, controlled cuts while reducing splintering on the cut edge. Compact working length and standard shank design make the blade compatible with a wide range of jigsaws that accept T-shank blades. The blister packaging keeps blades organised and protected during storage.

Suitable for

• Crosscuts and rip cuts in softwood and plywood
• Trimming and fitting small wooden components
• Hobby and DIY woodworking projects
• Interior finishing tasks where smooth edges are required

How to use

Install the Bosch T101AO blade into a compatible jigsaw with a T-shank clamp, ensuring the teeth face the intended cutting direction and the blade is securely locked in place. Adjust the jigsaw speed and feed rate appropriate for the wood type and thickness to avoid overheating or chipping. Guide the jigsaw steadily along the cutting line without forcing the blade; allow the blade to cut at its own pace for the best finish. Replace the blade when cutting performance declines or if the blade becomes bent or damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use lower speed settings and steady pressure for thin or delicate wood to reduce chipping. For longer, straighter cuts, support the workpiece to minimise vibration. Store blades in their blister pack to prevent damage and keep them dry to avoid surface corrosion.
