Diablo 12" 5TPI Fleam Ground Reciprocating Saw Blades for Pruning and Clean Wood (5-Pack) are engineered for demanding outdoor cutting tasks where speed and precision matter. Designed by Diablo for use with both corded and cordless reciprocating saws, these 12-inch blades deliver super fast results through branches and clean wood materials, making them a go-to choice for arborists, landscapers, and contractors tackling heavy pruning applications. The fleam grind tooth geometry and bi-directional design set these blades apart for smooth, aggressive cuts in natural wood, while the hardened cutting edge ensures long-lasting durability across extended use. Sold in a pack of 5, this set keeps you working without interruption.

Key Features

• Precision Fleam Ground Teeth for super fast cutting in wood materials - the specialized fleam grind geometry slices aggressively through branches and clean wood, reducing cutting time and operator effort in pruning applications.
• Hardened cutting edge for long and durable cutting life - the reinforced tooth edge stays sharp longer under repeated use, meaning fewer blade changes and lower cost per cut over time.
• Deep-seated gullets for easy chip removal and fast cutting - large gullets clear sawdust and wood chips efficiently from the cut path, preventing clogging and maintaining consistent cutting speed through dense material.
• Bi-Directional tooth design for fast and smooth cutting in both directions - teeth configured to cut on both the push and pull stroke maximize productivity and produce cleaner results without repositioning or wasted motion.
• 12" blade length with 5 TPI - the extended length provides deep reach into thick branches and logs, while the 5-tooth-per-inch configuration is optimized for fast, aggressive material removal in clean wood rather than fine finish work.
• Pack of 5 blades - having multiple blades on hand keeps downtime low during high-volume or extended pruning jobs, ensuring continuous productivity in the field.

Why This Product

• Purpose-built for pruning - the fleam grind tooth pattern and 5 TPI configuration are specifically matched to the demands of cutting branches and clean wood, delivering faster results than general-purpose recip blades in outdoor cutting scenarios.
• Compatible with both corded and cordless reciprocating saws - these blades work with a wide range of tool platforms, so you can use them with whatever saw is already on your jobsite without needing a dedicated tool.
• Bi-directional cutting reduces wasted strokes - by cutting efficiently in both directions, these blades make better use of every stroke your saw delivers, speeding up the overall cut and reducing operator fatigue during prolonged pruning work.
• Swiss-made precision in a 5-pack value format - the pack quantity provides enough blades to power through large pruning projects or keep a crew supplied, without the need to source replacements mid-job.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can these blades be used to cut wood that contains nails?

No. These Diablo fleam ground blades are not recommended for cutting wood with nails. They are designed specifically for pruning and clean wood applications. Using them on nail-embedded wood can damage the teeth and significantly shorten blade life.

What reciprocating saw types are compatible with these blades?

These 12" Diablo recip blades are compatible with both corded reciprocating saws and cordless reciprocating saws, giving you flexibility across different tool platforms and jobsite power setups.

What does "fleam ground" mean and why does it matter for pruning?

Fleam grind refers to a tooth geometry where each tooth is ground at a specific angle to create a sharp, knife-like edge on both sides. This design is particularly effective in wood-cutting applications because it slices through fibers cleanly and aggressively, resulting in super fast cutting performance in branches and clean wood materials - exactly the conditions encountered in heavy pruning work.

How many blades come in this pack and are they all the same specification?

This product includes a pack of 5 blades. All 5 blades share the same specification - 12" length, 5 TPI, and fleam grind tooth design - making this pack ideal for stocking up before a large pruning job or keeping a team supplied in the field.
