Reciprocating Saw Blade Irwin HCS 152 mm for Wood and Plastics, Fast-Cutting Teeth, 2 pcs

Set of two Irwin reciprocating saw blades, 152 mm long, made from high carbon steel (HCS). These blades are designed for cutting wood and plastic and feature a fast-cutting tooth geometry that enables efficient plunge cuts, rough demolition and general purpose cutting in repair and renovation work. The blades fit standard reciprocating (sabre) saws and are intended for users who need compact blades for confined spaces and controlled cuts.

Advantages

High carbon steel construction provides a balance of edge retention and affordability for general-purpose wood and plastic cutting. The fast-cutting tooth geometry accelerates material removal for quicker progress in demolition, trimming and renovation tasks. The 152 mm length offers improved maneuverability in tight or awkward positions compared with longer blades, while the two-piece set ensures a spare blade is available when one becomes worn or damaged.

Suitable for

• Plunge cuts in soft and medium-density wood
• Cutting plastic pipes, panels and trim
• Small demolition and renovation tasks
• Carpentry adjustments and trimming work
• DIY projects requiring compact reciprocating blades

Key specifications

• Blade length: 152 mm
• Material: high carbon steel (HCS)
• Tooth type: fast-cutting geometry suitable for rapid material removal
• Pack quantity: 2 blades
• Compatible tool type: standard reciprocating (sabre) saws

How to use

Install the blade in the reciprocating saw according to the saw manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the blade is securely locked and oriented for cutting in the correct direction. For plunge cuts, start slowly to establish the kerf and then apply steady pressure; allow the saw to do the cutting rather than forcing the blade. When cutting plastic, use a moderate feed rate to avoid melting; when cutting wood, maintain a consistent stroke and clear debris from the cut to preserve cutting efficiency. Replace the blade when cutting performance decreases or when teeth are visibly worn or damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and gloves. Match blade length and tooth geometry to the task: these 152 mm HCS blades are intended for wood and plastics and are not recommended for metals or abrasive materials. Keep blades dry and store in a safe place to prevent damage and corrosion.
