Product Description
CMT JT244D-5 Jig Saw Blades - Wood/Coarse Curve (HCS) 4" x 6 TPI, 5-Piece Pack from CMT are high-carbon steel jig saw blades engineered for fast, coarse curve cuts through soft and hardwood, plywood, and OSB. With a 4 mm tooth distance and 6 teeth per inch, these blades power through material thicknesses ranging from 7/32" to 2 3/8" - making them a dependable choice for both through-cutting and plunge cutting applications. The universal T-shank design ensures compatibility with virtually all jig saw models, so you can get to work without searching for adapters.
Key Features
- High-Carbon Steel (HCS) construction - delivers the hardness and cutting durability needed for aggressive wood removal in soft and hardwood, plywood, and OSB without premature dulling.
- 6 TPI coarse tooth geometry - optimized for fast, aggressive cuts where speed matters more than surface finish, reducing pass time through thick stock.
- 4 mm tooth distance - promotes efficient chip clearance during curve and plunge cuts, helping prevent blade binding and overheating in dense materials.
- 4" total blade length with 3" cutting height - provides enough usable cutting depth to handle material up to 2 3/8" thick while keeping the blade stable during curved passes.
- Universal T-shank (T-shank) design - fits all major jig saw brands without an adapter, so the blades install quickly and stay securely locked during use.
- Capable of plunge cutting - lets you start a cut in the middle of a workpiece without a pre-drilled hole, expanding the range of joinery and layout tasks you can complete.
- 5-piece pack (JT244D-5) - gives you multiple blades on hand so work continues uninterrupted when one blade reaches the end of its service life.
Why This Product
- When you need to rip through hardwood or softwood up to 2 3/8" thick in a curved path, the 6 TPI coarse tooth pattern removes material quickly - cutting time that a fine-tooth blade simply cannot match at the same feed rate.
- The T-shank connection is the universal standard accepted by all major jig saw manufacturers, which means these blades work with the tool already on your bench - no proprietary adapter required.
- Plunge cutting capability means you can begin an interior cut anywhere on a panel of plywood or OSB without drilling a starter hole first, saving setup steps on cabinetry, flooring, and rough framing work.
- Buying a 5-piece set rather than individual blades keeps spare cutting edges within reach on the job site, so a worn blade never becomes a reason to stop work mid-project.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum material thickness these jig saw blades can cut?
These blades are rated for material thicknesses from 7/32" up to 2 3/8" (approximately 5 mm to 60 mm), covering a wide range of dimensional lumber, plywood, and OSB panel thicknesses.
Will these blades fit my jig saw?
Yes. The T-shank is a universal shank type accepted by all major jig saw brands, so no adapter is needed. Simply insert the blade into your tool's blade clamp and lock it in place.
Can these blades make plunge cuts without a pre-drilled pilot hole?
Yes. The CMT JT244D is designed to support plunge cutting, allowing you to start an interior cut directly on a flat surface of wood, plywood, or OSB without drilling a starter hole first.
Are these blades suited for fine finish cuts or primarily for rough work?
At 6 TPI with a coarse tooth profile, these blades are designed for fast material removal and aggressive curve cutting rather than fine finish work. They are best suited for rough cuts, structural panels, and applications where speed takes priority over surface smoothness.
