Product Description
Milwaukee 6 in. 4/6 TPI Sawzall Blades — 5 Pack
Model Number: 48-00-5041
The Milwaukee 48-00-5041 is a 5-pack of 6 in. 4/6 TPI variable pitch Sawzall Blades — a specialty wood-cutting reciprocating saw blade optimized for cutting wood with embedded nails, screws, and metal fasteners in demolition, remodel, and salvage applications where the operator cannot avoid cutting through the fasteners encountered in existing wood framing and structural assemblies. The 4/6 TPI variable pitch specification uses an alternating tooth pattern that varies between 4 TPI sections and 6 TPI sections along the blade length. This variable geometry serves two purposes simultaneously — the 4 TPI coarser sections provide aggressive wood cutting speed through the lumber between fasteners, and the variable pitch pattern reduces resonant blade vibration that constant-pitch blades experience when cutting mixed wood-and-metal materials. Milwaukee designs and manufactures Sawzall blades for professional cutting performance with blade steel, tooth geometry, and heat treatment all optimized for demanding real-world cutting conditions.
Nail-embedded wood cutting is one of the most demanding Sawzall applications — the blade must transition between cutting wood at high speed and absorbing the impact of cutting through nails and screws without catastrophic tooth failure or blade fracture at the contact point. The bi-metal construction addresses this directly: HSS teeth provide the cutting edge hardness for both wood and metal cutting performance, while the flexible alloy steel body absorbs the impact stress of fastener contact without the brittle fracture that would destroy an all-HSS blade at the same point. The 6 in. blade length covers the majority of remodel demolition applications and fits the tight clearance spaces common in renovation work where full wall and ceiling sections are being opened for system access or modification.
For clean nail-free wood cutting where maximum speed is the priority, Milwaukee's 5 TPI thin kerf wood-specific blades provide better cutting speed — see Milwaukee's full Sawzall lineup for all available nail-embedded and wood-specific blade specifications.
