Description
The Alpha Carbide Teeth TCT Destructor Metal & Timber Recip Blade – RDCM1508 is a versatile heavy-duty reciprocating saw blade designed for demolition cutting across mixed metal and timber materials.
Ideal for metal, cast iron, wood with nails, hardwood, softwood and plastic, the RDCM1508 features specially developed tungsten carbide teeth for outstanding toughness and service life.
The heavy-duty flexible, break-resistant blade material is designed to withstand demanding multi-material cutting, while the reinforced tooth and gullet design helps guard against tooth fracture and clogging.
A tall, rigid blade profile supports clean, straight and accurate cuts, while precision-set teeth provide fast cutting without clogging.
With a 152mm overall length, 116mm cutting length and 8 TPI tooth configuration, the blade is designed for rough and straight cutting. It provides a cutting depth of 6–100mm through hardwood and softwood, plus 3–12mm through metal, cast iron and plastic.
Alpha states that the super-duty TCT tipped blade lasts up to 20 times longer than competitor TCT reciprocating blades for demolition use.
