Bosch S 1411 DF Heavy for Wood and Metal Sabre Saw Blades

The S 1411 DF Heavy for Wood and Metal sabre saw blade by Bosch is a bi-metal (BIM) blade designed for cutting both wood and metal. With a length of 300 mm and a medium-thick gauge of 1.25 mm, it balances cutting speed, flexibility and stability. The blade is optimised for cutting soft nails, mild steel and non-ferrous metal components embedded in wood, and fits sabre saws with a 1/2 inch universal shank system, providing a maximum cutting depth of up to 250 mm.

Advantages

The large tooth pitch (4.3 mm) and side-set teeth enable fast curved cuts and efficient material removal. The bi-metal construction increases durability when cutting mixed materials, while the 1.25 mm thickness offers a compromise between rigidity and flexibility for controlled cutting. A 300 mm blade length extends the cutting capacity for deeper workpieces.

Suitable for

• Curved and straight cuts in timber containing embedded metal parts
• Cutting soft nails and thin mild steel embedded in wood
• Demolition and renovation tasks requiring fast removal of mixed materials
• Applications with sabre/reciprocating saws using 1/2" universal shank

How to use

Install the blade into a compatible sabre/reciprocating saw with a 1/2" universal shank following the saw manufacturer's instructions and ensure the blade is securely locked. Position the workpiece and start cutting at a moderate speed, allowing the large tooth pitch and side-set teeth to clear debris. For curved cuts, guide the saw along the intended path without forcing; let the blade's geometry and teeth do the work. Replace the blade if cutting performance deteriorates or teeth are damaged.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection, gloves and hearing protection) and clamp or secure the workpiece. Avoid excessive lateral bending of the blade to prevent premature breakage. For embedded metal and mixed-material cutting, use steady feed pressure and maintain blade alignment for clean, fast cuts.
