​ Are there different types of jigsaw blades?

Hello, today we will mainly introduce you to the jigsaw saw, which is a relatively common electric appliance, mainly used to cut wood, metal, plastic, and tile supplies, and can be selected according to the different materials cutting different jigsaw saws. So we will introduce today, what are the cutting saw blades on the market, divided into many kinds, so let's introduce them one by one!

1. General-purpose saw blades


This saw blade is usually suitable for most wood, plastic, and soft metals. General-purpose saw blades are usually made of high-speed steel (HSS), which has good wear resistance and cutting ability. They usually have a medium-sized tooth pitch and are relatively inexpensive, making them one of the most common jigsaw blades. If you need to do general cutting work, such as trimming wood or cutting plastic pipes, then a general-purpose saw blade is a good choice.


2. Cutting saw blades


These saw blades are suitable for hard materials, such as aluminum alloys, PVC pipes, and other non-wood materials. They are usually made of tungsten carbide (WC) and have a harder tooth tip that stays sharp during the cutting process. Cutting saw blades typically have smaller tooth spacing and more teeth, so they generate less heat when cutting and have smoother cutting lines. If you need to cut hard materials, such as aluminum alloy or PVC pipes, then a cutting saw blade is a good choice.


3. Fine-cutting saw blades


If you need to do high-precision cutting work, such as making furniture or other fine woodworking work, then a fine-cutting saw blade is a good choice. These saw blades are usually made of bimetal, a mixture of high-speed steel and tungsten carbide. They usually have smaller tooth spacing and more teeth, which can generate less heat and less vibration during the cutting process, resulting in more precise cutting results.


4. Thick plate saw blades

These saw blades are suitable for thicker materials, such as large wood blocks, construction materials, and metal plates. They are usually made of bimetal and can withstand greater stress and vibration during the cutting process. Thick plate saw blades typically have a larger tooth pitch and fewer teeth than general-purpose saw blades. If you need to cut thicker materials, such as wood, construction materials, or sheet metal, then a thick plate saw blade is a good choice.


5. Circular saw blade


These saw blades are suitable for materials that need to be cut in curves and arcs, such as wood, metal, and plastic. They are usually made of high-speed steel and can stay sharp during the cutting process. Circular saw blade usually have a smaller tooth pitch and more teeth, which generates less heat and less vibration during the cutting process, resulting in a more precise cut. If you need to make curved or arched cuts, such as making wooden puzzles or metal parts, then a circular arc saw blade is a good choice.


6. Tile saw blade


These saw blades are suitable for cutting materials such as tiles and ceramics. They are usually made of tungsten alloy, which keeps them sharp during the cutting process. Tile saw blades usually have a fine tooth pitch and a small number of teeth to avoid tile breakage or cracks during the cutting process. If you need to cut tiles or other ceramic materials, then a tile saw blade is a good choice.


7. Scraping saw blade


These saw blades are suitable for applications that require fine scratches on the surface of materials, such as foam, glue, and thin wood chips. They are usually made of high-speed steel and have very fine tooth tips that make it easy to cut small grooves or scratches into the surface of the material. Scraper saw blades are a good choice if you need to do fine scratch work on the surface of a material, such as making marks on a foam surface or making fine carvings on a piece of wood.


Summing up:

When we use a jigsaw saw, it is very important to choose the correct blade, it must depend on the actual application, the type of material we need to cut, and its size. Also according to the need to cut the precision requirements, choose the appropriate saw blade. For example, fine-cutting saw blades can be selected. For example, circular saw blades are suitable for curved and arc cutting. If you want to cut tiles, then you have to use a special saw blade for tiles.

Another thing to add is that when you choose the right saw blade later, you also have to strictly comply with the safety operation in the use process only, to prevent hazards in the jigsaw saw blade, be sure to wear good protective gloves and goggles and to ensure that the saw blade is firmly adjusted.
