Quality Reciprocating Saw Blades – For Trade & DIY

At Xcatalogue, we aim to proudly supply reciprocating saw blades that tackle demolition, construction, and renovation jobs with both precision and reliability. Whether you're a professional tradesperson dismantling metal pipes, cutting through studs, or a DIY user trimming branches or old timber, our UK-stocked blades consistently deliver performance and durability where it counts.

Reciprocating saws—sometimes called sabre saws—require tough, vibration-resistant blades to handle the rigours of demanding tasks. Therefore, we carry a growing selection of reciprocating saw blades in a range of sizes, tooth profiles, and materials. As a result, you'll find blades to suit almost every application, from wood to metal, plastics, and even masonry with specialised carbide-tipped options.

Blade Types and Materials

Choosing the right reciprocating saw blade depends on your material, cut type, and desired finish. That’s why our inventory includes:

  • High Carbon Steel (HCS): Great for general-purpose wood cutting, pruning, and plastics. These are more flexible but wear faster in harder materials.
  • Bi-Metal (BIM): Combines HCS and high-speed steel for superior durability and resistance to breakage. Ideal for metal, wood with nails, and demolition work.
  • Tungsten Carbide Tipped (TCT): Extremely durable for cutting fibreglass, cement board, and hardened metals. Best for specialist or high-demand jobs.

Tooth Pitch and Application

When it comes to cutting performance, teeth per inch (TPI) directly affect the speed and smoothness of your cut:

  • 6 TPI or lower: Fast, aggressive cuts—perfect for pruning or rough demolition in wood.
  • 10–14 TPI: Balanced performance for general construction, wood with nails, and plastic.
  • 18–24 TPI: Finer cutting in thin metals, conduit, sheet steel, and pipework.
  • Specialty grits: Non-toothed blades using carbide grit for cutting ceramics or cast iron.

Reciprocating Saw Blade Uses

Whether you're breaking down pallets, trimming joists, or cutting pipe flush to a wall, there's always a blade to match:

  • Wood & Timber: Use HCS or BIM blades with low TPI for fast cutting of studs, pallets, and beams.
  • Metal Cutting: Opt for bi-metal blades with high TPI for smoother, cleaner results on copper, steel, or rebar.
  • Plastics & PVC: Medium TPI BIM blades avoid melting and provide controlled cuts.
  • Tree Pruning: Long, aggressive blades make light work of branches and green wood.

Reciprocating Blade Sizes

Blade length also matters, especially depending on the depth of cut you need:

  • 150mm: Ideal for pipe, conduit, and narrow spaces.
  • 200–230mm: A versatile size for general-purpose cutting tasks.
  • 300mm+: Best suited for demolition, pruning, and deep cuts through timber.

Using Your Blades Efficiently

  • Let the blade do the work: Avoid forcing the saw—it reduces blade lifespan and increases the risk of snapping.
  • Match blade to material: Don’t use wood blades on metal or vice versa—your efficiency and safety will suffer.
  • Use correct speed: Slower speeds are better for metal, while faster speeds suit wood and pruning tasks.
  • Lubricate for metal: Use cutting fluid to reduce friction and extend blade life during metal cutting.
