Jigsaw blade Makita A-86309

The Makita A-86309 jigsaw blade is a set of five high carbon steel (HCS) blades engineered for cutting wood. Each blade offers a working length of 100 mm and a tooth pitch of 4.2 mm, providing consistent, precise cuts suitable for a variety of woodworking tasks. The blade geometry and material are selected to balance cutting speed and edge durability for use with compatible jigsaw tools.

Advantages

High carbon steel construction delivers good sharpness and flexibility for common woodcutting applications while maintaining resistance to chipping during typical use. The 4.2 mm tooth spacing is optimized for clean, efficient crosscuts and rip cuts in soft and hardwoods. Supplied in a pack of five, the set reduces downtime by providing ready replacements and ensures consistent cutting performance across multiple projects.

Suitable for

• Cutting softwoods and hardwoods
• General woodworking and carpentry tasks
• Making straight and curved cuts in timber boards and panels
• Replacement blades for jigsaw maintenance

Key specifications

• Blade material: high carbon steel (HCS)
• Working length: 100 mm
• Tooth spacing (pitch): 4.2 mm
• Pack quantity: 5 blades
• Tooth design: medium/coarse for wood cutting

How to use

Install the blade in a compatible jigsaw according to the tool manufacturer's blade-change procedure, ensuring the teeth face the correct cutting direction and the blade is securely locked. Adjust the jigsaw speed and orbital setting (if available) to match the type of wood and desired finish. Guide the saw steadily along the cut line without forcing the blade; allow the blade's teeth to cut at their own pace for cleaner results and to avoid premature wear.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the blades on straight or gently curved cuts in timber and panels. Match blade speed and feed rate to the wood species—slower feed for hardwoods, moderate speed for softwoods—and replace blades when cutting performance or finish quality declines. Store blades dry and protected to prevent corrosion.
