Bosch 2 608 657 553 jigsaw/scroll saw/reciprocating saw blade Sabre saw blade Bimetal 1 pc(s)

The Bosch 2 608 657 553 sabre saw blade is intended for cutting profile and thin sheet metal. Constructed with bimetal materials, the blade combines toughness and flexibility to resist wear and reduce the risk of breakage during demanding cutting operations. With a tooth spacing of 1.4 mm and a maximum cutting depth of 17.5 cm, it is designed to deliver precise, controlled cuts in metal workpieces while fitting standard sabre/jigsaw tool holders. The blade is supplied singly in a protective blister pack.

Advantages

The bimetal construction provides improved durability compared with conventional carbon blades, maintaining sharpness longer under high-stress use. The 1.4 mm tooth spacing offers a balance between cutting speed and finish quality, enabling accurate metal slicing with minimized burr formation. Compatibility with standard sabre saw fittings and the single-blade blister packaging simplify storage and replacement for professionals and hobbyists.

Suitable for

• Cutting profile metal sections and thin sheet metal
• Metalworking tasks requiring controlled, accurate cuts
• Renovation or repair jobs involving metal panels or ducts
• Portable saw applications where tool portability and quick blade changes are needed

Key specifications

• Material: bimetal construction for wear resistance and flexibility
• Tooth spacing: 1.4 mm for medium-fine cutting in metal

How to use

Install the blade into a compatible sabre/jigsaw following the tool manufacturer's blade change instructions, ensuring the blade is secured correctly before operation. Select a stable workpiece position and clamp the metal to prevent movement. Use appropriate feed rate and pressure—letting the blade do the cutting without forcing—to maintain blade life and achieve a smooth edge. For best results, mark the cut line clearly and progress steadily along the marked path. After use, allow the blade to cool before handling or storing.

Recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection when cutting metal. Apply cutting lubricant if recommended for the material to reduce heat and extend blade life. Inspect the blade for wear or damage before each use and replace when teeth become dull or the blade shows deformation.
