JIGSAW BLADES<br />
Working with Hitachi<br />
Circles, straight lines, holes and trimming<br />
- with Hitachi jigsaw blades you can cut<br />
just about any shape. Hitachi has created<br />
a wide range of jigsaw blades for all jobs<br />
in many types of material and for all imaginable<br />
applications. Straight cuts, fine cuts,<br />
without splintering or at high speed - almost<br />
anything is possible.<br />
Hitachi jigsaw blades are extremely strong<br />
and durable, thanks to the use of high quality<br />
materials.<br />
Material<br />
High Carbon Steel (HCS) is used to cut<br />
softer materials such as wood, plastic and<br />
plastic coated chipboard.<br />
High Speed Steel (HSS) fully hardened saw<br />
blades are used to cut harder materials<br />
such as metal, aluminum and non-ferrous<br />
metals.<br />
Bi-Metal (BiM) blades are the perfect combination<br />
of a durable HSS strip welded on<br />
a flexible HCS base. This type of blade is<br />
used if there is a risk of shank breakage.<br />
Especially suitable for use in hardwood,<br />
hard plastics and various types of metal.<br />
Tungsten Carbide (HM/TC) saw blades are<br />
powerful thanks to the high abrasion resistance<br />
of carbide. The different types vary<br />
from carbide tip, strip and grit, available for<br />
cutting stainless steel, glass fiber reinforced<br />
plastics and even tiles.<br />
Blade Production<br />
Milling: The saw blade is milled giving a<br />
faster production time. The teeth are quite<br />
rough and will cut almost all materials at<br />
high speed.<br />
Grinding: The grinding process gives finer<br />
teeth and therefore a finer cut of better quality<br />
suitable for fine materials. The rake of<br />
the teeth also plays a role and prevents the<br />
saw blade jamming in the<br />
material being cut.<br />
Teeth Geometry<br />
Milled Side set: The teeth are set out of<br />
line with each other to speed up sawing.<br />
Result is a relatively rough cut.<br />
Milled Wavy set: The teeth are wavy set.<br />
This provides a finer cut in almost all<br />
materials.<br />
Ground Side set: The blade is ground and<br />
therefor the teeth are sharper, for fast<br />
rough cuts in wood.<br />
Taper ground/ Conical: The blade is<br />
ground to a taper shape which enables<br />
kerf clearance. The sharp teeth achieve a<br />
fine precise cut in wood and plastic.<br />
Progressive: This saw blade is executed<br />
with a progressively increasing tooth<br />
pitch, which combines good sawing<br />
speed with a smooth finish.<br />
We have selected the most suitable<br />
blades for a wide range of materials.<br />
These can be easily selected by the color<br />
coding system and pictograms mentioning<br />
the specific usage and application.<br />

NAVIGATING INSTRUCTIONS<br />
In the chart on the first pages the entire<br />
range of Hitachi jigsaw blades and their<br />
application is depicted. When navigating<br />
based on your specific application, you<br />
can easily find which product suits your<br />
demands best, accompanied by its technical<br />
specifications.<br />
The subsequent pages show you detailed<br />
product specifications of all Hitachi<br />
jigsaw blades, classified by application.<br />
In the subsequent blade descriptions the<br />
first number in size markings expresses<br />
total length, followed by toothed length.<br />
The actual useful length depends on<br />
brand and type of the machine employing<br />
the blade.<br />
INOX<br />
METAL<br />
WOOD + METAL<br />
WOOD<br />
ABRASIVES<br />
The TC-strip configuration allows these blades to be used in Inox sheet<br />
metal, hardened screws and nails up to maximum 50HRC.<br />
Bi-Metal saw blades for cutting softer- and non-ferrous metals.<br />
Saw blade with progressive Bi-Metal teeth enable fast wood cutting<br />
and sawing of non-hardened screws and nails.<br />
For wood cutting applications the coarse and sharpened teeth give<br />
optimal results. Use a BiM blade for cutting hard wood.<br />
Carbide gritted blades for cutting tiles and Carbide Tipped blades for<br />
cutting plaster board, glass fiber reinforced plastics/epoxy and fiber<br />
cement boards.
