Jigsaw blade Bosch T 118 G Basic for Metal High-Speed Steel HSS

The Bosch T 118 G Basic for Metal jigsaw blade is made of high-speed steel (HSS) and designed for straight, precise cuts in very thin sheet metal. Each blade measures 92 mm in overall length with a tooth spacing of 0.7 mm. Blades are supplied in packs of five and have a blue/stainless steel finish.

Advantages

HSS construction provides durability and heat resistance for cutting thin metal sheets. Fine 0.7 mm tooth spacing enables clean, straight cuts in sheet metal. The 92 mm length and standard T-shank design make the blade compatible with most jigsaws that accept T 118 G blades. Supplied in a 5-piece pack to cover several small jobs.

How to use

Install the T 118 G blade into a compatible jigsaw according to the jigsaw manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the blade is secured in the T-shank holder. Use steady, moderate feed speed and support the workpiece to achieve straight cuts. For best results in thin sheet metal, avoid excessive force and allow the blade's teeth to cut at their own pace to reduce burrs and overheating. Replace blades when tooth wear reduces cutting performance.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (safety glasses and gloves) and clamp the sheet metal firmly. Select a jigsaw speed suitable for metal cutting and consider a light cutting lubricant if recommended for the material to extend blade life.
