Jigsaw Blade Makita B-64939 Bimetal 5 cm 1 pc

The Makita B-64939 jigsaw blade is a bimetal cutting accessory designed for precision and extended life. With a working length of 5 cm, this single-piece blade fits compatible jigsaw models and is intended for efficient straight and curved cuts. Constructed from two metals joined to combine hardness and toughness, the blade aims to maintain sharpness while resisting breakage during demanding cutting tasks.

Advantages

The bimetal construction provides a balance of edge retention and flexibility, reducing the risk of tooth breakage under load. Its 5 cm working length makes it suitable for confined cutting areas and fine-detail work. Engineered for compatibility with standard jigsaw holders, the blade offers consistent cut quality and reduced vibration compared to lower-grade blades.

Suitable for

• Fine straight and gentle curved cuts in thin metal sheets
• Precision trimming and detail work in construction and renovation
• Cutting tasks where blade durability and resistance to tooth wear are required

Key specifications

• Blade material: bimetal (high-speed steel edge bonded to flexible spring steel backing)
• Working length: 5 cm
• Quantity: 1 piece
• Tooth type: fine-toothed profile suitable for thin materials and precision cuts
• Compatibility: designed for use with jigsaws that accept standard shank and blade mounting

How to use

Install the blade into the jigsaw according to the tool manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the blade is seated securely and the teeth face the correct cutting direction. Adjust the jigsaw speed and feed rate to match the material being cut; use lower speeds for metal and higher for softer materials if appropriate. Maintain steady pressure and allow the blade to do the cutting to avoid overheating or premature wear. Replace the blade when cutting quality decreases or if teeth are damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves when operating a jigsaw. For best results on metal, clamp the workpiece firmly, mark cut lines clearly, and consider applying cutting lubricant when sawing thicker or harder metal sheets.
