Product Information

High Carbon Steel is best suited for softer materials such as softwood, soft plastics and wood fibreboards. First and foremost, if you need to know which jigsaw to buy first? Read our Jigsaw Buying Guide. Blade shank

High-Speed Steel blades should be applied when working with harder material such as metal, copper, aluminium, perspex and other non-ferrous metals. The qualities of HSS means that they are generally harder and have a higher abrasive resistance so they will cut faster and have greater longevity. Carbide and Diamond Grit: When you want the best jigsaw blades hardened steel or other tough materials, tungsten carbide choices are your best option. They provide the best durability and heat resistance of any other product in the marketplace today. You’d want to use this choice for cutting through steel, ceramics, or tile. How to Cut a Cement Board with a Jigsaw

Perfect for cutting long, straight MDF panels

Blade size and Teeth: Within the 20 blade pieces, you get 10 T101B 4-inch long 10 TPI HCS blades for straight and fine cuts, 10 T101D 4-inch 6 TPI blades for straight and clean cuts, and 10 T144D 4inch 6 TPI blades for straight and very fast cuts. No, you cannot get a good cut on your MDF with a knife. You may be able to score a laminated MDF with a utility knife, though. It is, however, challenging. You would need to put a lot of power into it. Mark out the line you are cutting through. Put a metal edge on the line to ensure your scoring is straight. You can then cut with a saw after scoring. Anything that requires a clean, controlled cut with accuracy benefits from using this approach. It works better when working with a delicate piece, but the design is suitable for virtually all materials. Please remember to get a metal-compatible blade for that material. Flush-Cutting Blades

Support the countertop: Provide adequate support for the countertop by using sawhorses or a stable workbench. This prevents the material from vibrating excessively, decreasing the likelihood of chipping. Also, its stainless steel alloy body ensures that each cut is straight and accurate, which is crucial when working with precision projects. The TPI rating affects how fast and rough your cuts happen when using a jigsaw. It can also dictate what materials you can use with your tool while working on a project. Although nearly all blades are made from metal, you’ll find several composition options are in the marketplace today. They can be made from high-speed steel, high-carbon steel, bi-metal, tungsten carbide tipped, and diamond grit blades. A general-purpose saw blade is an all-around versatile saw blade suitable for cutting finished lumber, hard and soft woods, plywood, and composition boards. The teeth on a general purpose saw blade feature a beveled grinding which enables it to make rip cuts along the grain line of soft and hard woods as well as crosscuts or miter cuts against the grain. This type of saw blade typically ranges in diameter from 6-11 inches with 16-50 teeth.

When buying a saw blade for MDF cutting, you have four different types of saw blades to choose from: carbide tipped, carbide tipped PCD (polycrystalline diamond), diamond, and high-speed steel. Each type is designed to provide superior results when cutting MDF boards.

Another noteworthy feature of these saw blades is that they are made of tungsten carbide. This material is known for its toughness and ability to maintain sharpness for extended periods. According to my research, this feature makes these blades ideal for cutting through hard materials like MDF, plywood, and laminate. Two Blade Versatility for Different Cuts You can cut the wood on either side since veneered MDF usually features a layer of veneering on both sides. Just in case yours doesn’t, you want the side with the veneer facing up when making your cuts. Second, the dust particles generated by MDF are significantly smaller and more abundant than those created by other materials like particleboard or plywood. This can clog up the saw blade and cause difficulties in completing the cut. When you need a jigsaw to cut through wood, a blade with a TPI between 6-20 is typically appropriate. This rating is sufficient for other soft materials, including foam board, plywood, engineered surfaces, and similar items.

This easy-to-use Diablo blade has heat expansion slots to allow it to adapt to the heat from cutting for so long. This means you can use the blade for a very long time without fear of getting crooked cuts due to heat expansion. The blade’s stabilizer vents ensure less vibration and minimize the noise while you work with the saw. The steps I outlined above are applicable here. Some woodworkers will use a utility knife to score the veneered wood before cutting it with a jigsaw, as this can help the jigsaw slice through the dense wood more easily. When you’re selecting the ideal saw blade for MDF materials, it’s important to understand that, like all products for cutting, there are different types and styles of blades available. Different tooth configurations can be applied to saw blades meant for MDF, with each offering its own set of benefits — the choice should depend on your desired end-result. Here are some of the most commonly used tooth configurations:
