The DeWalt DT20436-QZ 152mm 8TPI Carbide Reciprocating Saw Blade is the ideal blade for completing rapid and accurate cuts in metal applications. The blade is coated with titanium, which awards the teeth increased wear resistance and allows them to stay sharper. The blade has a larger gullet when compared to bi-metal blades, which removes material much faster and decreases cutting time. The carbide teeth are precision ground to work with a wide range of metals including cast iron and steel pipe, and welded to the cutting edge which works to prevent tooth loss. The tall thick blade profile allows for straight cuts in large diameter materials and ensures a working life.
