FAQs
Can I use these blades on thick solid hardwood?
No, these blades are optimized for thin materials between 1.5mm and 15mm. They will likely bind or break in thicker stock.
Will these fit my battery-powered jigsaw?
Yes, as long as your jigsaw uses the standard T-shank blade attachment system.
What does the 1.4mm tooth pitch signify?
The 1.4mm pitch indicates the distance between teeth, which is fine enough to produce a smooth, clean cut in delicate laminate without aggressive tear-out.
Are these blades flexible?
Yes, the bi-metal design incorporates an elastic carbon steel body, allowing for the flexibility needed to perform tight curved cuts.
How many blades come in a pack?
Each pack contains three high-quality blades.
Can I use these for metal cutting?
No, these are specifically designed for laminate, parquet, and uPVC. Using them on metal will dull the teeth immediately.
Troubleshooting
Blade wanders or creates a crooked cut
Reduce your feed rate and ensure you are not applying lateral pressure to the jigsaw; let the blade do the cutting.
Excessive splintering of the laminate surface
Check that the jigsaw's orbital action is turned off and ensure the blade is fully inserted and tight in the chuck.
Blade overheating quickly
Check your cutting speed. If the saw is set to maximum speed, try reducing it slightly, and ensure you are not pushing the tool too fast through the material.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent clean-cut performance in laminate flooring
- Highly durable bi-metal construction resists heat and wear
- Narrow profile allows for excellent maneuverability in tight curves
- Effective at reducing surface tear-out
- Universal T-shank fitting ensures wide compatibility
Cons
- Not suitable for materials thicker than 15mm
- Limited to specific thin woodworking and laminate applications
- Higher cost than standard high-carbon steel blades
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure your jigsaw is set to the appropriate orbital action setting—usually zero or a low setting—to maximize the clean-cut capabilities of this blade. Insert the T-shank into the blade holder until it clicks into place. Before starting your project, always verify that the jigsaw base is clean and free of debris to prevent scratching the face of your laminate. After use, inspect the teeth for accumulated resin or dust; if residue is present, gently clean with a soft wire brush. Store the blades in their original cardboard packaging or a dry case to prevent corrosion, as the high-speed steel edge can be susceptible to surface rust if exposed to high humidity.
