Product Description
CMT JS1120CF-5 Reciprocating Saw Blades for Metal (BIM) - 9" x 9TPI, 5-Pack are heavy-duty bi-metal sabre saw blades engineered for cutting thick sheet metal, thick-walled solid pipe, and structural profiles. Built with a 9 TPI tooth configuration and a total length of 9 inches, these BIM blades deliver the aggressive, controlled cutting action that metal fabrication, plumbing, and demolition work demands. Each pack includes 5 blades, giving professional tradespeople the redundancy needed for extended jobsite use.
Key Features
- Bi-Metal (BIM) Construction - combines the hardness needed to cut metal with the flex-back durability that resists blade breakage during demanding reciprocating cuts, reducing blade replacement frequency.
- 9 TPI Tooth Configuration with 2.9mm Tooth Distance - the coarser pitch is optimized for thick metal stock, allowing chips to clear freely and preventing tooth loading that would slow cuts or overheat the blade.
- 9" Total Length with 8" Cutting Height - the generous cutting reach allows users to work through thick-walled pipe, solid profiles, and layered sheet metal without repositioning, improving cut efficiency.
- Designed for Sheet Metal 4mm to 12mm (5/32" to 1/2") Thick - the tooth geometry and pitch are matched to this specific thickness range, meaning users get clean, fast cuts rather than stripped or skipping teeth.
- 0.063" Blade Thickness - provides the rigidity required to track a straight cut through dense metal while still offering enough flex to prevent snapping under lateral stress.
- 22mm Cutting Depth Capacity - suited for solid pipe walls and thick profiles, extending the range of metal cutting tasks these blades can handle on a single jobsite.
- 5-Piece Pack - provides multiple blades per purchase so work can continue without interruption when a blade reaches the end of its service life.
Why This Product
- For tradespeople cutting thick sheet metal between 4mm and 12mm, the 9 TPI pitch and BIM material combination address exactly that thickness range - reducing the guesswork of blade selection for structural metal and heavy pipe work.
- The 9" blade length with an 8" cutting height means users can reach into deep cuts on solid pipe and thick-walled profiles without switching to a longer, harder-to-control blade.
- Buying in a 5-piece pack keeps a ready supply on hand for rescue, demolition, and fabrication tasks where blades are consumed quickly and downtime from running out is costly.
- The BIM construction is specifically suited for the variable forces of reciprocating saw use - the flexible spring-steel back resists snapping while the hardened teeth maintain their edge through thick metal cuts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What thickness of sheet metal can these blades cut?
These blades are designed for cutting thick sheet metal from 4mm to 12mm (5/32" to 1/2") in thickness. The 9 TPI tooth pitch is matched to this range for efficient chip clearance and clean cutting performance.
Can these blades cut solid pipe and hollow profiles in addition to flat sheet metal?
Yes. In addition to thick sheet metal, these BIM blades are designed for cutting thick-walled solid pipe and structural profiles, making them suitable for plumbing, fabrication, and demolition tasks where multiple metal forms are encountered.
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 spring-steel body. For metal cutting applications, this means the teeth are hard enough to cut through dense metal stock while the blade body resists snapping under the aggressive reciprocating motion of a sabre saw, extending usable blade life.
How many blades come in this pack?
This product includes 5 blades per pack (CMT JS1120CF-5). Having multiple blades available is particularly useful for demolition, rescue, or extended metal cutting work where individual blades are consumed at a higher rate.
