Product Description
Milwaukee Jig Saw High Carbon Steel 10 TPI 3-5/8 in. — 5 Pack
Model Number: 48-42-0540
The Milwaukee 48-42-0540 is a 5-pack of 3-5/8 in. High Carbon Steel 10 TPI Jig Saw Blades — standard medium-tooth wood-cutting blades in an extended length format for cutting thicker wood sections and materials with cutting depth requirements beyond standard 3 in. and 4 in. jig saw blade capacity. The 10 TPI medium tooth count provides a practical everyday balance of cutting speed and cut surface quality in wood — faster than fine-tooth specifications for productive cutting in standard construction applications while producing less splintering than the very coarse 5 TPI and 6 TPI specifications, making it appropriate for general-purpose wood cutting where both speed and cut quality are moderately important. The 3-5/8 in. extended length provides the cutting depth for thick hardwood stock, dimensional lumber in the upper thickness range, thick plywood and OSB, and any wood cutting application where standard 3 in. or 4 in. blades fall short of completing the full cut depth from a single blade position.
High carbon steel construction provides adequate sharpness and edge retention for clean nail-free wood cutting without the bi-metal premium — HCS blades are the economical choice for wood applications where nail contact is not expected and where the material's cutting demands do not require bi-metal impact toughness. The 3-5/8 in. length also improves straight-cut tracking in thicker materials compared to shorter blades — the longer blade section in the kerf helps maintain perpendicular orientation and resist lateral deflection during the straight cut path in thick lumber sections. The 5-pack provides a practical supply for contractors and woodworkers who use this specification for regular thick-lumber cutting on construction and carpentry projects.
