Product Description
CMT JS2345X-5 Reciprocating Saw Blades for Wood are 8-inch High-Carbon Steel (HCS) sabre saw blades engineered for cutting construction wood, particle board, chipboard, MDF, plywood, and plastic. Featuring a progressive 6-10 TPI variable tooth pitch, this 5-piece blade set delivers smooth, controlled cuts through wood-based sheet goods and dimensional lumber up to 6 inches thick - making them a reliable choice for rough framing, demolition work, and general carpentry applications where versatility and clean cuts both matter.
Key Features
- High-Carbon Steel (HCS) blade construction - delivers fast, aggressive cutting through wood, MDF, chipboard, plywood, and plastic without sacrificing blade life in everyday wood cutting tasks.
- Progressive 6-10 TPI variable tooth pitch - the changing tooth spacing across the blade reduces vibration during cutting, helping you maintain control and achieve smoother results in construction lumber and engineered wood products.
- 2.4-4mm variable tooth distance - the graduated tooth geometry handles varying material densities found in particle board and composite panels, minimizing blade chatter and tear-out.
- 8-inch total blade length with a 7-inch cutting height - gives you sufficient reach and a generous usable cutting stroke for deep cuts in thick stock and awkward job-site angles.
- Rated for material up to 6 inches thick - covers the full range of dimensional construction lumber and stacked sheet goods commonly encountered on framing and renovation projects.
- 0.049-inch tooth thickness - a precision kerf width that balances cutting speed with blade stability, reducing side flex when plunging into dense wood panels.
- 5-piece pack - provides multiple replacement blades so you can keep working through demanding cuts without stopping to source individual blades mid-project.
Why This Product
- The progressive 6-10 TPI tooth pitch addresses one of the most common frustrations with reciprocating saw work - excessive vibration - by varying the tooth spacing along the blade to smooth out the cutting action in construction wood, MDF, and plywood.
- At 8 inches long with a 7-inch cutting height, these blades offer enough reach to work through thick framing lumber and stacked sheet materials in a single pass, reducing the need to reposition or make multiple cuts.
- The HCS material is purpose-matched to wood and wood-based composites including chipboard, particle board, plywood, and plastic - making this blade set a single versatile solution across multiple materials found on the same job site.
- Buying in a 5-piece set means you always have a fresh blade on hand, which matters in situations where blade wear affects cut quality in softer engineered wood panels like MDF and chipboard.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can these reciprocating saw blades cut?
These HCS blades are designed to cut construction wood, particle board (chipboard), MDF, plywood, and plastic. They are rated for materials up to less than 6 inches in thickness.
What does the variable 6-10 TPI tooth pitch mean for cutting performance?
The progressive 6-10 TPI pitch means the tooth spacing gradually changes along the blade length, ranging from 2.4mm to 4mm between teeth. This variation helps reduce vibration during cutting, which leads to smoother results and better control when working through construction lumber and engineered wood panels like MDF or chipboard.
What is the usable cutting length versus the total blade length?
The total blade length is 8 inches, while the cutting height - the usable stroke that engages the material - is 7 inches. The cutting depth is listed at 19mm. The maximum recommended material thickness is less than 6 inches.
How many blades come in this pack?
This product is sold as a 5-piece set, giving you five JS2345X HCS reciprocating saw blades for wood in a single purchase.
