Jigsaw Blades

Jigsaw blades are metal saw blades that are fitted on electric saws called jigsaws. They are thin and narrow and therefore suited to cutting in a curve. Materials used include high-speed steel, and bimetal blades do not break easily. Blades are selected according to the material they are used for, such as metals, wood, plastic and special materials, but some blades can be used for more than 1 type of material. Blades that are compatible with the same applications may differ in length, thickness and number of teeth, and blades designed for cutting wood are particularly available in various types, such as blades for thick materials, cutting in curves and finishing. While long blades can cut materials with large dimensions, short blades are capable of more stable cutting. In addition, blades with a greater number of teeth can deliver a more beautiful cut surface. Choosing sharp blades will increase cutting speed and improve the quality of finish.
