Product Description
CMT JS922BF-5 Reciprocating Saw Blades for Metal - BIM 6" x 14TPI (5-Piece Pack) are precision-engineered bi-metal sabre saw blades designed for cutting thick sheet metal, solid pipe, and profiles with clean, controlled results. Built from BIM (bi-metal) construction with a 14 TPI tooth configuration and a 1.8mm tooth distance, these 6-inch blades deliver fine, efficient cuts through metal ranging from 3mm to 8mm (1/8" to 5/16") in thickness. Whether you are tackling heavy-gauge sheet metal fabrication or cutting solid pipe and structural profiles, this 5-piece set keeps your work moving without blade changes slowing you down.
Key Features
- Bi-Metal (BIM) Construction - combines a hardened high-speed steel tooth edge with a flexible spring-steel body, giving you the cutting durability needed for metal work alongside the blade flex that resists breakage during demanding cuts
- 14 TPI Tooth Configuration with 1.8mm Tooth Distance - optimized for cutting thick sheet metal from 3mm to 8mm (1/8" to 5/16") in thickness, producing fine, controlled cuts with minimal burring on metal surfaces
- 6-Inch Total Blade Length with 5 1/8" Cutting Height - provides a generous effective cutting stroke so you can work through solid pipe, profiles, and sheet metal stock with fewer repositioning interruptions
- 0.035" Blade Thickness (Teeth Thickness) - a slim kerf profile that reduces material drag during the cut and helps maintain blade tracking accuracy through metal workpieces
- Maximum Material Thickness Under 4 Inches - rated for cutting solid pipe and profiles up to just under 4 inches, making these blades versatile across a wide range of metal stock dimensions
- 19mm Cutting Depth - supports a consistent cutting engagement throughout the stroke, keeping the blade productive on thick sheet metal and solid pipe without deflecting
- 5-Piece Pack - stocking up means fewer interruptions on the job; having multiple blades on hand ensures you can finish a project even if one blade reaches the end of its service life mid-task
Why This Product
- If you regularly cut thick sheet metal - specifically stock in the 1/8" to 5/16" range - the 14 TPI geometry and BIM construction are matched to that exact application, reducing the guesswork of selecting the right blade for the material at hand
- The blade is explicitly designed for solid pipe and profiles as well as sheet metal, making this a single blade type that handles multiple metal cutting tasks rather than requiring you to stock separate blades for each job type
- BIM construction pairs tooth hardness with body flexibility, which means the blade can handle the stress of reciprocating motion through dense metal without the brittleness of single-material blades - a practical advantage in demanding fabrication or maintenance environments
- Purchasing in a 5-piece quantity keeps replacement blades immediately available, so a worn blade never halts a project while you wait for a restocking order to arrive

Frequently Asked Questions
What metal thicknesses are these blades designed to cut?
These blades are designed for cutting thick sheet metal from 3mm to 8mm (1/8" to 5/16") in thickness. For solid pipe and profiles, the maximum recommended material thickness is less than 4 inches.
What does BIM mean and why does it matter for cutting metal?
BIM stands for Bi-Metal, which refers to a blade construction that bonds high-speed steel teeth to a flexible spring-steel back. This combination delivers the cutting hardness needed to work through metal while keeping the blade body flexible enough to resist snapping under the stress of reciprocating motion - a meaningful advantage when cutting dense materials like solid pipe and thick sheet metal.
How many blades come in this pack and what is the total blade length?
This listing includes 5 blades. Each blade has a total length of 6 inches and a cutting height of 5 1/8 inches.
Is the 14 TPI tooth count appropriate for both sheet metal and pipe?
Yes. The 14 TPI configuration with a 1.8mm tooth distance is specifically suited for cutting thick sheet metal (3mm to 8mm), as well as solid pipe and metal profiles up to just under 4 inches in cross-section. This tooth pitch is selected for efficient chip clearance and controlled cutting on these material types.
