The Diablo Steel Demon 12" 10 TPI Carbide Teeth Reciprocating Saw Blades for Medium Metal - 10-Pack are engineered for professionals who demand long-lasting performance when cutting strut, pipe, stainless steel, rebar, angle iron, cast iron, and steel tube. Built around high-performance TiCo Hi-Density carbide teeth, these blades deliver up to 50X longer cutting life compared to standard bi-metal recip blades, making them a go-to solution for heavy-duty metal cutting tasks where durability and clean results are non-negotiable. Compatible with both corded and cordless reciprocating saws, they are purpose-built for all metals ranging from 1/16" to 5/16" in thickness.

Key Features

• TiCo Hi-Density Carbide Teeth - provide extreme durability and consistent cutting performance in medium metal applications, delivering up to 50X longer blade life so you replace blades far less often on the job
• Enhanced Carbide-to-Blade Connection - engineered for extreme impact resistance, keeping teeth locked in place even under the aggressive demands of metal cutting, reducing the risk of tooth loss mid-cut
• 10 TPI Tooth Geometry - optimized for clean, smooth finishes on medium metal from 1/16" to 5/16" thick, minimizing burring and post-cut cleanup on strut, pipe, and tubing
• 1" Oversized Blade Body - produces straighter cuts with significantly less vibration and chatter, giving the operator greater control and accuracy when working through angle iron, rebar, and cast iron
• Perma-SHIELD Non-Stick Coating - resists heat and friction buildup during metal cutting, helping prevent gumming and corrosion on the blade surface for extended service life
• 12" Blade Length - provides the reach needed to tackle deep cuts through thick steel sections, tube, and structural metal with a full-length reciprocating stroke
• 10-Pack Quantity - ensures a full supply of blades on hand for extended metal cutting projects or crew-level use, reducing downtime from blade changeovers

Why This Product

• If you regularly cut stainless steel, rebar, cast iron, or structural tube and burn through standard bi-metal blades quickly, the carbide-tipped Steel Demon construction addresses that directly - Diablo rates these at 50X longer cutting life, meaning fewer stops to swap blades and lower cost per cut over time
• The 1" oversized blade body paired with 10 TPI carbide geometry solves a common problem with medium metal cutting: blade flex, vibration, and chatter that produce rough edges - these blades are built to track straight and cut clean through material 1/16" to 5/16" thick
• The Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating is a practical advantage when cutting metals that tend to gum up or generate friction heat - it keeps the blade running cooler and cleaner, which contributes directly to longer life between changes
• Made in the United States, this 10-pack is sized for trade-level use - giving crews working in plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and steel fabrication a ready supply of high-endurance carbide recip blades without frequent reordering

Frequently Asked Questions

What thickness of metal are these Diablo Steel Demon blades designed to cut?

These carbide reciprocating saw blades are designed for cutting metals ranging from 1/16" to 5/16" in thickness, which falls in the medium metal category. Specific compatible materials include rebar, angle iron, cast iron, steel tube, pipe, stainless steel, and structural strut.

What makes the TiCo Hi-Density carbide teeth different from standard bi-metal reciprocating saw blade teeth?

TiCo Hi-Density carbide is a high-performance carbide formulation that enables significantly greater durability and cutting performance in metal applications. Diablo rates these blades at up to 50X longer cutting life compared to standard alternatives, and the enhanced carbide-to-blade connection is specifically engineered for extreme impact resistance to keep teeth secure during aggressive metal cutting.

Are these blades compatible with cordless reciprocating saws?

Yes. The Diablo DS1210CF10 blades are compatible with both corded reciprocating saws and cordless reciprocating saws, making them a versatile choice for job sites where power access may vary.

What does the Perma-SHIELD coating do, and why does it matter for metal cutting?

The Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating helps the blade resist heat and friction buildup during use, which is especially important when cutting metals that tend to generate significant heat. By resisting heat accumulation, the coating helps prevent gumming and corrosion on the blade body, contributing to a longer useful life for each blade in the 10-pack.
