Product Description
CMT JT341HM-3 Jig Saw Blades - Fiber and Plaster (Carbide Tipped) - 3-Piece Pack are heavy-duty jig saw blades engineered specifically for cutting plasterboard, fiber cement boards, and glass fiber reinforced plastic and epoxy. With carbide-tipped (HW) teeth and a coarse 6 TPI configuration, these blades power through abrasive building materials that would quickly destroy standard bi-metal or high-speed steel blades. The universal T-shank design means they drop straight into virtually any corded or cordless jig saw without an adapter, making them a practical choice for contractors, remodelers, and tradespeople who need reliable cuts in demanding materials.
Key Features
- Carbide-Tipped (HW) Teeth - Tungsten carbide tips bonded to the steel blade body stay sharp far longer than standard steel teeth when cutting highly abrasive materials like fiber cement and plasterboard, reducing blade changes and downtime on the job.
- 6 TPI Coarse Tooth Configuration - A 4.3 mm tooth distance delivers aggressive material removal on thick, dense substrates, keeping cuts moving efficiently without bogging down.
- 4-3/8 in. Cutting Height - Deep usable cutting depth accommodates plasterboard and fiber cement board at varying thicknesses, giving you reach that shorter blades simply cannot match.
- 5-1/2 in. Total Blade Length - The extra overall length provides stability and control during long, straight cuts through thick panel materials.
- Maximum Material Thickness of 3/16 in. to 2 in. - Handles a wide range of material thicknesses in a single blade, from thin fiber-reinforced sheets up to full 2 in. panels.
- Universal T-Shank - Fits all major jig saw brands without any adapter, so the blade goes to work immediately on corded and cordless tools alike.
- 3-Piece Pack - Multiple blades included in a single purchase means you have replacements on hand before the job is done, reducing interruptions on larger projects.
Why This Product
- Fiber cement and plasterboard are notoriously abrasive and rapidly dull conventional blades - the carbide-tipped (HW) tooth construction of these blades is purpose-built for exactly these materials, extending usable blade life where standard options fail quickly.
- The 6 TPI coarse pitch and 4-3/8 in. cutting depth allow clean, controlled cuts through thick plasterboard and fiber cement boards in a single pass, reducing the need for repeated scoring or multiple tool setups.
- The universal T-shank is compatible with all major jig saw platforms, so there is no need to stock multiple blade styles for different tools on a multi-trade job site.
- Buying as a 3-piece pack provides immediate backup blades for extended cutting sessions on larger installations, avoiding mid-project delays when cutting highly abrasive materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are these jig saw blades designed to cut?
These blades are designed for cutting plasterboard, fiber cement boards, and glass fiber reinforced plastic and epoxy composites. The carbide-tipped (HW) teeth handle the high abrasion of these materials without dulling as rapidly as standard steel blades.
What is the maximum material thickness these blades can handle?
According to the product specifications, these blades are rated for a maximum material thickness range of 3/16 in. to 2 in., covering a wide variety of plasterboard and fiber cement panel thicknesses.
Will these blades fit my jig saw?
These blades use a universal T-shank, which is compatible with all major corded and cordless jig saw brands. No adapter is required for tools that accept the standard T-shank system.
How many blades come in this pack, and why does that matter for fiber cement cutting?
Each pack includes 3 carbide-tipped jig saw blades. Because fiber cement and glass fiber reinforced materials are highly abrasive, having multiple blades on hand before starting a project reduces the chance of running out mid-cut during extended or large-scale cutting work.
