Jigsaw Blade Makita B-64808 Bimetal 1 pc

The Makita B-64808 jigsaw blade is a bimetal cutting blade intended for general-purpose sawing in workshop and professional environments. Manufactured from two bonded metals, the blade combines flexibility and edge retention to handle a range of materials with consistent performance. Sold as a single piece, it can be fitted to compatible jigsaw models for precision straight and curved cuts.

Advantages

Bimetal construction provides a balance between toughness and wear resistance, reducing the risk of tooth breakage and extending service life. The blade design offers stable cutting behavior across mixed materials, while the teeth geometry supports smooth material removal and reduced burr formation. Being a single replacement blade, it allows quick swaps and convenient inventory management for occasional or frequent use.

Suitable for

• Cutting thin to medium-gauge metals such as steel and non-ferrous alloys
• Woodworking tasks including plywood, chipboard and softwood
• Situations requiring a single, replaceable blade for maintenance or onsite repairs

Key specifications

• Blade material: bimetal (high-speed cutting edge bonded to flexible backing)
• Teeth type: fine-toothed geometry for combined metal and wood cutting
• Mount type: compatible with standard T-shank jigsaw holders
• Length: suitable for common jigsaw stroke lengths (check tool compatibility)
• Finish: industrial-grade surface treatment to resist corrosion during storage

How to use

Install the blade into a jigsaw following the jigsaw manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the correct orientation of the teeth for the intended cut. Secure the blade in the tool's holder and confirm proper clamping before operation. For optimal results, set the jigsaw speed appropriate to the material: lower speeds for metals and higher speeds for wood. Use steady feed pressure and allow the blade to cut at its own pace to avoid bending or overheating.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, clamp workpieces securely, and keep cutting lines free of obstructions. Replace the blade when cutting performance or finish quality declines. Store blades in a dry place to prevent surface corrosion and inspect blades before use for visible damage.
