These demolition reciprocating saw blades are not your average supermarket pack of three. Built from bi-metal construction with M42 high speed steel teeth containing 8% cobalt, they are designed for the kind of cutting that chews through regular blades in minutes. Whether you are ripping into steel pipe on a strip-out, cutting through nail-embedded timber, or doing rescue work where the blade needs to perform without argument, these are the ones to reach for.
The key difference is in the dimensions. Most standard reciprocating saw blades are 19mm wide and around 0.8mm to 0.9mm thick. These run at 22mm wide and 1.6mm thick. That extra width and thickness translates directly into blade stability during the cut, particularly on awkward angles or when the material is unpredictable. Less flex, less wander, more control. The backing steel is also a higher grade than what you will find on budget blades, which is what allows the whole thing to absorb the punishment of demolition use without fatigue cracking.
What the Demolition Reciprocating Saw Blade Variants Cover
The metal cutting versions are suited to steel plate, steel pipes, box section, and profiles. Good for trade work where you are cutting through structural steel or pipework that needs to come out cleanly. The wood cutting variants handle fast rough cutting through hard and soft timber, nail-embedded wood, plasterboard, particle board, and non-ferrous metals including aluminium. Essentially the sort of material mix you encounter on any honest demolition job.
Both variants use a universal shank fitting that works with most reciprocating saw machines. The special geometry milled teeth are designed to bite hard and stay sharp longer than pressed-tooth alternatives. Available in 150mm and 225mm lengths, and in 6tpi or 9tpi depending on whether you need faster aggressive cuts or a slightly finer finish on the demolition reciprocating saw blade you are using.
Pro Tip: On thick steel or hardwood, use the 6tpi blade with a slower stroke speed and let the blade do the work rather than forcing the saw, pushing hard just generates heat and kills the teeth faster.
These blades are used across demolition, strip-out, and rescue work where conditions are rough and materials are mixed. Metal cutting variants handle steel pipe, plate, and profiles on construction and engineering sites. The wood cutting versions are a solid choice for cutting timber with hidden nails, plasterboard, particle board, and aluminium sections on refurbishment and demolition projects. Emergency services and rescue teams also use blades of this spec where fast, reliable cutting through unpredictable material is non-negotiable.

Not suitable for: Not intended for fine finish cuts or precision joinery work. The 6tpi variants in particular are aggressive cutters built for speed and durability, not clean edges.
Fit the blade to your reciprocating saw using the universal shank, ensuring it is fully locked before cutting. Select 6tpi for fast, aggressive cutting through thick timber or steel sections, and 9tpi where a slightly cleaner cut is needed or material is thinner. Let the blade reach full stroke speed before contacting the material.
On steel, apply light cutting fluid if available and avoid forcing the saw. Consistent moderate pressure with full strokes will outlast any amount of pushing. On nail-embedded wood, the blade will handle contact with fixings without snapping, but slow slightly when you know nails are present to reduce shock loading on the teeth.
Check the blade shank is fully seated and locked in the saw chuck before starting
Select the correct blade variant: metal cutting for steel and non-ferrous metals, wood cutting for timber, board, and mixed demolition material
Choose 6tpi for fast aggressive cuts through thick or hard material, 9tpi for slightly finer or thinner section work
Allow the saw to reach full speed before contacting the workpiece
Apply steady, moderate pressure and use the full stroke length for efficient cutting
On steel sections, ease pressure slightly and apply cutting fluid where practical to extend blade life
When cutting nail-embedded wood, reduce forward pressure slightly as the blade passes through known fixing locations
Will these blades fit my reciprocating saw?
These blades use a universal shank fitting that is compatible with most reciprocating and sabre saw machines on the market. If your saw accepts standard universal shank blades, these will fit.
What is the difference between the 6tpi and 9tpi versions?
6tpi is a coarser cut designed for faster, more aggressive cutting through thick timber, steel sections, or mixed demolition material. 9tpi cuts slightly finer and works better on thinner material or where you want a cleaner edge. For most demolition work, 6tpi is the go-to choice.
How do these compare to standard reciprocating saw blades?
They are noticeably heavier built. At 22mm wide and 1.6mm thick versus the typical 19mm and 0.9mm, they are more stable in the cut and significantly more resistant to bending and fatigue. The M42 cobalt HSS teeth also hold their edge considerably longer under hard use than standard HSS teeth.
Bi-metal construction combining a high grade steel backing with M42 high speed steel teeth containing 8% cobalt, which raises the hardness and heat resistance of the cutting edge considerably. Blade width is 22mm and thickness is 1.6mm, both above standard spec for improved rigidity during demanding cuts. Teeth are geometry milled rather than pressed, which produces a more consistent and durable tooth profile across the blade length.
