Product Description
Milwaukee 12 in. 5 TPI AX with NITRUS Carbide SAWZALL Blade for Wood with Nails
Model Number: 48-00-7253
The Milwaukee 48-00-7253 is a 12 in. AX with NITRUS Carbide SAWZALL Blade for Wood with Nails and Screws, sold as a single blade. This is Milwaukee's premium carbide-tooth demolition blade in its longest length, offered as a single so you can add or try one without buying a full pack. The 12 in. blade delivers the reach a shorter blade cannot, cutting all the way through thick timbers, bundled material, deep walls, and large sections in a single pass, which is exactly what heavy demolition and tear-out work demands. The NITRUS Carbide teeth are what make it last, since carbide holds a cutting edge far longer than the bi-metal teeth on a standard demolition blade, and Milwaukee's NITRUS Carbide technology drives fast cutting while shrugging off the impact that destroys ordinary blades when they hit hidden fasteners. Milwaukee rates the blade for up to 2X the life of standard carbide-tooth blades in wood with nails, and its aggressive 5 TPI design cuts fast and aggressively through wood while powering through the nails and screws buried in it.
Two design features define the AX line. NAIL GUARD lets the blade rip nails rather than tearing off its own teeth, protecting the carbide when it meets embedded nails and screws in framing, subfloor, and old construction, the exact hazard that ends the life of standard blades. FANG TIP is the pointed tip design Milwaukee calls the quickest plunge cut of any wood blade, letting you drive the long blade straight into a wall, floor, or roof deck to start a cut without a pilot hole. Combined with best-in-class durability in tough fasteners and roofing materials, and a rigid blade body that resists the bending and fracturing that long blades are prone to, the 12 in. AX holds up and keeps cutting where a bi-metal blade would dull or bend within a few cuts.
The AX with NITRUS Carbide blade is built for residential remodeling and demolition: cutting through nailed and screwed framing, tearing out subfloor and sheathing, sectioning large timbers, and ripping through roofing materials. The universal shank fits all standard reciprocating saws, so it works in any Milwaukee SAWZALL and other brands of recip saw. This single 12 in. blade is a practical way to keep a long-reach carbide blade on hand, and the line is also offered in 6 in. and 9 in. lengths and in 1, 3, and 5 packs for matching the blade to the job.
