Jigsaw Blade Makita B-64870-5 Bimetal 5 pcs 5 cm

The Makita B-64870-5 jigsaw blade set contains five bimetal blades with a 50 mm working length intended for controlled, precise cuts across a range of common materials. Designed for use with compatible jigsaws, these blades combine a hardened tooth edge with a flexible backing to resist breakage and extend service life. The compact 5 cm length and bimetal construction make the set suitable for intricate cutting tasks where accuracy and blade durability matter.

Advantages

These bimetal blades balance wear resistance and toughness by pairing high-speed steel teeth with a flexible spring steel body. The short 5 cm working length provides improved control in tight curves and detailed profiles, while the universal shank and consistent tooth geometry support stable cutting performance. The set of five ensures quick replacement on the job, reducing downtime and maintaining cutting quality.

Suitable for

• Fine curve cutting in thin metal sheets
• Precision trimming of wood and laminated boards
• Cutting plastic materials and composites
• Detail work in renovation and fabrication projects

Key specifications

• Blade material: bimetal (HSS teeth welded to flexible steel backing)
• Working length: 50 mm
• Pack quantity: 5 blades
• Tooth geometry: fine-tooth profile for controlled cutting
• Application: metal, wood, plastics, composites

How to use

Select a compatible jigsaw that accepts the blade shank type, secure the blade according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions, and ensure the workpiece is clamped firmly. Start cuts at moderate speed, allowing the bimetal teeth to engage the material without forcing the blade. For best results in metal, use steady feed pressure and appropriate cutting fluid where indicated; for wood and plastics, adjust speed and feed to avoid chipping or melting. Replace blades when cutting quality declines or if visible wear or damage appears.

Usage recommendations

Use the 50 mm bimetal blades for short plunge cuts and tight-radius profiles. Match blade speed and feed to the material: slower feed with cutting fluid for metals, higher speed with steady feed for wood. Store blades dry and clean to prevent corrosion and inspect before each use.
