Product Description
Milwaukee 6 in. Carbide Grit Sawzall Blade
Model Number: 48-00-1421
The Milwaukee 48-00-1421 is a single 6 in. Carbide Grit Sawzall Blade — an individual abrasive grit reciprocating saw blade for cutting ceramic tile, porcelain, fiber cement siding, fiberglass, and other hard or abrasive materials that bi-metal blades dull through immediately. The carbide grit edge performs cutting by abrasive grinding rather than tooth-shearing — the electrodeposited tungsten carbide particles bond to the blade edge and grind through hard, brittle, and abrasive materials that quickly destroy conventional steel teeth. The single blade format is appropriate for occasional hard-material cutting use, small-area applications, and emergency mid-project replacement when the working blade exhausts its grit during a critical tile or fiber cement cut.
Carbide grit blades wear at a higher rate than bi-metal blades in standard applications — the grit gradually depletes from the edge over cutting cycles, making the blade a consumable that requires replacement when cutting effectiveness decreases. The 6 in. standard compact length fits the access requirements and cutting clearance of the most common reciprocating saw applications in renovation work where tile, fiber cement, and fiberglass cutting arises alongside standard wood and metal work. Slow, steady feed pressure without forcing the blade extends grit life and produces cleaner cuts in brittle tile and fiber cement. Milwaukee also offers this blade in the 3-pack (48-00-1420) for contractors who use carbide grit blades more regularly.
