Holds up to 50 times longer than a bi-metal blade in tough materials. Many blades that claim to be suitable for multiple materials perform well in wood and soft metal. However, they struggle to cut harder elements like screws or metal fittings. The Expert 'Multi Material' has no such issues: its carbide teeth can repeatedly cut through the toughest types of steel. The Bosch Expert 'Multi Material' reciprocating saw blade is a great solution for the problem of blades that simply do not last long enough on modern job sites. It is a reliable partner that cuts more than just metal and wood. Plastics, composites, and prefabricated elements used on construction sites are reliably separated thanks to Bosch Carbide Technology. The progressive tooth design is engineered to cut both thin and thick materials equally well. Since the Bosch Expert 'Multi Material' reciprocating saw blade lasts much longer and performs well in every material, it is of great value to professionals. They achieve greater productivity in their work and need to purchase fewer blades. Compatible with all S-shank reciprocating saws, which are sometimes referred to as demolition saws.
