Blades for jigsaw and reciprocating saws
Saw blades - Made in Germany!
Jigsaws and reciprocating saws are in constant use in many trades: Their application ranges from demolition to terrace construction and from installation to carpentry work. A fast, clean cut is vital to producing professional and efficient work. Klingspor’s new selection for saws therefore offers sawing solutions for a great number of materials and applications.

The saw blades by Klingspor have been optimised for each specific area of application. The materials can be categorised into four primary groups:| CV – high-alloy chrome vanadium steel …is the preferred choice for work on softer materials such as wood, wood fibreboards, or plastics. |
Bi-metal – spring steel including welded-on HSS strips with cobalt ...ideal for wood-based and metal materials. |
|
|
HSS – high-performance speed steel …is used for such harder materials as iron, steel, aluminium, and non-ferrous metal. |
HM – hard metal …is distinguished by its superior wear resistance and long service life. Saw blades made of this material are suitable for universal use. |
Blade characteristics

x0x - StandardThe grain is sliced as the tooth shape is positioned slanted relative to the wood. As the ground flanks do not make contact with the saw kerf, the cut made in the wood is very clean.Application: Wood |
x1x - SpecialLong service life due to carbide-tipped teeth. The width of the saw blade allows for straight and precise cuts. Even the hardest materials are cut with high speed.Applications: Aerated concrete, masonry, hollow brick |
x3x - Double-sided toothingAllows for extremely tight curve cuts, and even reverse cuts, in woodApplications: Softwood, plywood, particle boards |

x4x - Back-toothedAllows for fine and extra clean curve cuts in wood.Application: Wood |
x5x - NarrowThe narrow shape of the jigsaw blade allows for curve cuts in wood.Application: Wood |
x6x - Push-to-cutJigsaw blades with “push-to-cut toothing” allow for splinter-free cuts on the material surface thanks to their “reversed toothing”.Applications: Wood, kitchen countertops, coated boards |

x7x - Radial toothingThe three different orientations of the teeth ensure a tear-free cut on both sides.Applications: Kitchen countertops, coated boards |
x8x - Thick saw bladeThe extra thickness of the jigsaw blade also ensures a cut with angle accuracy.Application: Wood |
x9x - Vario toothingJigsaw blades with alternating tooth pitch guarantee universal use across a wide range of materials.Applications: Wood, wood with nails, metal, steel |
The selection of the right saw blade
“Will one saw blade not do for everything?” The answer is: No! Depending on the composition and the thickness of the material to be worked on, the blade material, the tooth geometry and the flexibility of the saw blade may play a decisive role. Another key factor is the quality of the cut: The choice of the right saw blade is largely dependent on whether the work involves, for instance, fast cuts during demolition or clean cuts during kitchen construction.1.

2. Teeth per inch
3. Blade length
2-3 teeth should always work inside the material:A rule of thumb for the toothed length of the saw blade: Width of the material plus 50 mm
