Product Description
Milwaukee 12 in. 6 TPI Fleam Ground Sawzall Blades — 5 Pack
Model Number: 48-00-5017
The Milwaukee 48-00-5017 is a 5-pack of 12 in. 6 TPI Fleam Ground Sawzall Blades — the longest standard length in the Milwaukee fleam ground wood-cutting blade lineup, engineered for maximum cutting speed in clean dimensional lumber, heavy timber, and structural wood where the 12 in. length provides the reach that shorter blades cannot achieve without cutting stops and repositioning. Fleam grinding is a specialty tooth geometry where each tooth is ground at two intersecting bevel angles, creating a sharp pointed tip with cutting edges on both the leading face and the side face — the resulting tooth shears wood fiber with a slicing action that produces cleaner cuts faster than standard chisel-ground teeth in clean wood applications. The 6 TPI coarse pitch is matched to the fleam geometry for maximum material removal rate per stroke, making this the fastest-cutting clean wood Sawzall blade combination available for large-dimension cutting applications.
The 12 in. length extends the working reach to accommodate the largest-dimension framing and structural lumber encountered in residential and commercial wood-frame construction — large timber sections, triple-stacked framing assemblies, large engineered lumber beams, and any structural wood cross-section that shorter blades cannot penetrate fully without the saw shoe contacting the work surface before the blade clears the material thickness. These blades are specifically optimized for clean, nail-free wood and should not be used in nail-embedded demolition cutting or on metal and composite materials where the wood-optimized geometry and carbon steel construction would be quickly damaged. The 5-pack provides an economical supply for contractors who use 12 in. fleam ground blades regularly for large timber and heavy framing cutting work.
See Milwaukee's complete Sawzall blade lineup for the full range of fleam ground and standard blade specifications across all lengths and tooth counts for every wood and metal cutting application.
