MAXTEC Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade 150mm 10 TPI - Metal and Wood with Nails Cutting

MAXTEC Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade 150mm 10 TPI - Metal and Wood with Nails Cutting

The MAXTEC Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade 150mm 10 TPI is a compact aggressive demolition blade designed for fast cutting through structural timber, nail-embedded wood, and mixed site materials in tight access conditions. At 10 TPI, the tooth pattern is coarser than the 14 TPI mixed material blade, delivering more aggressive material removal per stroke on thick structural timber and demolition waste. The bi-metal construction handles repeated contact with embedded nails, screws, and metal site fixings without the blade fracturing or the teeth stripping, which makes it the correct blade for internal strip-out, stud removal, and renovation work where the condition of the timber cannot be confirmed before cutting. At 150mm overall length with a 125mm working length, it operates in confined spaces where longer blades cannot function safely.

Why Choose the MAXTEC Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade 150mm 10 TPI

• 10 TPI aggressive tooth pattern: coarser than 14 TPI, removes material faster per stroke on thick structural timber and demolition waste.

• Bi-metal construction for nail and fixing contact: flexible body absorbs impact without fracturing, HSS teeth resist stripping on embedded metal contact.

• Compact 150mm length: designed for internal strip-out and stud removal in confined spaces where longer blades foul against surrounding structure.

• 125mm working length: covers structural timber, studwork, and mixed demolition material depth encountered on renovation and strip-out work.

• Suitable for timber with nails, screws, and site fixings: engineered for demolition conditions where embedded metal contact is unavoidable.

• Pack of five: trade quantity for professional consumption rates on busy demolition and renovation sites.

Who Is This For?

The MAXTEC Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blade 150mm 10 TPI is aimed at demolition contractors, renovation trades, joiners, and general construction operatives who carry out internal strip-out, stud removal, and structural timber cutting in confined access conditions. It suits the demolition contractor cutting through nail-embedded studwork and structural timber during internal strip-out, the renovation tradesperson removing old timber framing in tight ceiling and floor void conditions, and the joiner cutting through old structural timber containing unknown fixings during adaptation work.

Typical Applications

• Internal strip-out cutting through nail-embedded studwork and structural timber

• Stud wall removal and partition demolition during renovation and adaptation work

• Cutting through old floorboards and structural joists containing embedded nails and screws

• Removing old timber framing in tight ceiling voids and floor void conditions

• Cutting mixed demolition waste including timber, plasterboard, and light metal fixings

• Structural timber cutting during renovation where access conditions prevent longer blades

• Cutting old roof timbers and structural members during refurbishment and adaptation work

How to Use

1. Fit the blade into the reciprocating saw blade clamp using the universal shank and confirm it is fully locked before operating.

2. Allow the saw to reach full speed before contacting the workpiece.

3. Apply steady forward pressure through structural timber and allow the blade to manage nail and fixing contact without forcing.

4. Keep the blade moving consistently to prevent binding in deep structural timber cuts.

5. Reduce stroke rate slightly when cutting through areas with high concentrations of metal fixings.

6. Inspect the blade after heavy nail and fixing contact and replace when teeth show visible damage.

Safety

• Eye protection to EN 166 is mandatory for all reciprocating saw operations.

• Wear cut-resistant gloves to EN 388 when handling and changing blades.

• Secure or brace the workpiece where possible before cutting during demolition work.

• Always locate concealed services before cutting through walls, floors, or ceilings.

• Be aware that nail-embedded timber causes sudden resistance changes during cutting.

Maintenance

• Inspect blades before each use for cracked, chipped, or missing teeth.

• Replace blades promptly after heavy nail and fixing contact as tooth damage accelerates on subsequent use.

• Clean timber resin and metal swarf from blades after each use before storage.

• Store blades flat in a dry environment to prevent corrosion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between this blade and the 14 TPI variant?

 A: The 10 TPI tooth pattern is coarser than 14 TPI, removing material more aggressively per stroke on thick structural timber and demolition waste. The 14 TPI blade is better suited to mixed material cutting where a cleaner cut edge is required alongside nail contact capability.

Q: Why choose 150mm over a longer blade for demolition work?

 A: The 150mm length is the correct choice for internal strip-out and stud removal in confined spaces where ceiling voids, floor voids, and tight access conditions prevent a longer blade from operating safely. For open demolition work with unrestricted access, a 300mm blade delivers better reach and productivity.

Q: Will the blade survive hitting nails and screws in old timber?

 A: Yes. The bi-metal construction is specifically engineered for this. The flexible alloy steel body absorbs impact without fracturing and the hardened HSS teeth resist stripping on nail and fixing contact. Inspect the blade after heavy metal contact and replace when tooth damage is visible.

Q: What is the difference between this blade and the MX-922BF 14 TPI variant?

 A: The MX-922HF runs at 10 TPI for more aggressive demolition cutting on thick structural timber. The MX-922BF at 14 TPI is better suited to mixed material cutting where a more controlled cut finish alongside nail contact capability is required.

Q: Will this blade fit my reciprocating saw?

 A: Yes. The MX-922HF uses a universal shank compatible with all major reciprocating saw brands including Bosch, DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita, Metabo, and Fein.

Q: Why should I order from CMT Group?

A: CMT Group delivers to 90% of the UK mainland on a FORS Silver accredited fleet with SMS notifications 15 minutes before delivery, live proof of delivery, and What3Words integration for precise delivery location on site.
