Product Description
CMT JS920CF-5 Reciprocating Saw Blades for Metal - BIM 6" x 9 TPI (5-Piece Pack) are heavy-duty bi-metal sabre saw blades engineered for cutting thick sheet metal, thick-walled solid pipe, and structural profiles. Designed for demanding metal-cutting tasks, these 6-inch blades with a 9 TPI tooth pattern deliver controlled, efficient cuts through materials ranging from 5/32" to 1/2" in thickness - making them a reliable choice for metalworking, fabrication, and demolition applications where material integrity and blade durability both matter.
Key Features
- Bi-Metal (BIM) Construction - the combination of high-speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible backing gives these blades the toughness to cut through thick metal without fracturing, extending service life across heavy-use applications.
- 9 TPI Tooth Configuration with 2.9mm Tooth Distance - an aggressive yet controlled pitch that removes material quickly in thick sheet metal and solid pipe, reducing cut time and operator fatigue.
- 6" Total Blade Length with 5-1/8" Cutting Height - provides adequate reach and clearance when cutting thick-walled pipe and structural profiles, keeping the blade stable and the cut accurate.
- Material Thickness Range of 5/32" to 1/2" - purpose-matched to thick sheet metal from 4mm to 12mm, so the blade stays in its optimal cutting zone and avoids tooth stripping common with mismatched blades.
- 0.049" Blade Thickness - a rigid yet flex-resistant profile that maintains straight, accurate cuts through dense metal stock without wandering or deflecting mid-cut.
- 5-Piece Pack (JS920CF-5) - multiple blades per pack means continuous workflow on the job site without stopping to source replacements during extended cutting sessions.
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for thick sheet metal from 4mm to 12mm (5/32" to 1/2"), this blade is correctly specified for material that would quickly wear down a finer-toothed or lighter-gauge blade - saving both time and replacement cost.
- The BIM construction pairs the cutting hardness needed for metal with the flexibility required to survive the vibration and variable loading of reciprocating saw work, reducing blade breakage on solid pipe and structural profiles.
- At 6" in length with a 5-1/8" usable cutting height, these blades provide enough depth of cut for thick-walled pipe and structural sections without the instability that comes with oversized blades on compact stock.
- Sold in a 5-piece set, the pack format supports jobs where multiple cuts or multiple crew members are involved, ensuring a fresh blade is always available without a separate reorder.

Frequently Asked Questions
What thickness of sheet metal can the JS920CF handle?
These blades are rated for thick sheet metal ranging from 4mm to 12mm in thickness, which corresponds to approximately 5/32" to 1/2". Staying within this range keeps the 9 TPI tooth pattern in its optimal engagement zone and helps prevent tooth stripping.
What does BIM mean and why does it matter for metal cutting?
BIM stands for Bi-Metal - a construction method that bonds high-speed steel teeth to a flexible backing material. For metal cutting, this means the teeth can withstand the hardness and heat generated by cutting solid pipe and sheet metal, while the flexible body resists cracking under the vibration and stress of reciprocating saw operation.
Can these blades cut both sheet metal and pipe with the same blade?
Yes. According to the product data, the JS920CF is designed for cutting thick sheet metal from 4mm to 12mm as well as thick-walled solid pipe and structural profiles - making it a versatile blade for metal-cutting tasks that involve more than one stock type.
How many blades come in the JS920CF-5 pack?
The JS920CF-5 pack includes 5 BIM reciprocating saw blades, each measuring 6" in total length with a 9 TPI tooth configuration - providing enough supply for extended cutting sessions or multi-person job site use.
