Sabre saw blade Bosch S 123 XF Progressor for Metal 10 cm HCS

The Bosch S 123 XF Progressor for Metal sabre saw blade is designed for cutting steel and other metal materials. Made from high carbon steel (HCS) with a bi-metal (BIM) tooth area, the blade has a working length of 100 mm and an overall length of 150 mm. Its progressively increasing tooth pitch supports fast cutting across a range of metal densities, and the blade fits sabre saws with a 1/2 inch universal shank system. The pack contains 2 blades.

Advantages

The progressively increasing tooth pitch (approx. 1.8–3.2 mm) enables rapid cutting in both thin and thicker metal sheets and profiles. BIM tooth construction combines HCS body resilience with harder cutting edges for longer life when cutting regular-strength steel. The blade’s geometry is optimised for steel wall thicknesses from 1 mm up to 8 mm, and the standard 150 mm overall length provides a cutting capacity of up to 100 mm.

Suitable for

• Cutting steel pipes and profiles of regular strength
• Fast cuts in thin and thick metal sheets
• Metalworking tasks requiring a 1/2 inch universal shank blade

How to use

Install the blade in a compatible sabre saw with a 1/2 inch universal shank system following the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Secure the workpiece, select an appropriate cutting speed for metal, and start cutting with steady, even pressure. Allow the blade to do the work—avoid forcing the saw to reduce wear and overheating. For long, straight cuts, guide the saw along a marked line and keep the blade vertical to the cut.

Recommendations

Use cutting lubricant or coolant when cutting thicker or harder steels to extend blade life and improve cutting performance. Replace the blade when teeth become dull or when cutting quality decreases. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection, gloves) and follow all safety instructions for the saw.
