Can Master Cobalt Wood reciprocating blades handle hidden nails and fasteners?

Yes. These blades feature a premium bi-metal construction and a reinforced tooth design with compound relief. This specialized matrix delivers exceptional impact resistance, allowing the teeth to strike and cut through hidden framing nails without shattering or stripping off.

What is the benefit of the tapered blade body design on these wood blades?

A tapered blade body narrows toward a pointed tip or nose. This geometric profile is ideal for plunge cutting directly into the center of a wood surface, making it excellent for window cutouts, drywall openings, and general demolition tasks.

How do I choose between the .035" and .050" blade thickness options?

Select your thickness based on your rigidity needs. The thinner .035 inch profile offers excellent flexibility for flush cuts or working in restricted spaces. The thicker .050 inch profile maximizes beam stiffness, allowing you to apply much heavier feed pressures during aggressive, straight timber runs.

Why does the 6 TPI wood blade cut so much faster than a metal blade?

Wood blades feature a lower, coarser tooth count (6 Teeth Per Inch) combined with deeper gullets. This configuration allows the blade to aggressively scoop out large quantities of soft material and wood chips per stroke, preventing the blade from clogging, heating up, or burning the material.

Master Cobalt® Wood

Power through high-impact tear-outs and heavy timber processing with industrial-grade M.K. Morse Master Cobalt® Wood reciprocating saw blades. Specifically engineered to withstand the severe shock of striking hidden fasteners, these premium bi-metal blades easily slice through all types of wood, wood composites, and nail-embedded lumber. The tapered blade body and pointed nose provide the ideal profile for clean, fast plunge cuts, while the reinforced tooth design with compound relief maximizes structural impact resistance. Choose our .035" thickness options for excellent flex tracking in tight clearances, or upgrade to our heavy-duty .050" profiles featuring a positive rake angle for more aggressive cutting and increased beam strength under intense feed pressures.

Blade Features:

Available in .035" thickness for flexibility in tight spaces and in .050" thickness for increased rigidity and heavier feed pressure.
Straight and variable tooth pitch which provide speed in cut and easier feed in wood.
Reinforced tooth design with compound relief provides high impact resistance.
More aggressive cutting with positive rake on .050" x 6 TPI blades.
Bi-metal construction for long cutting life and heat and wear resistant.
Tapered blade body best for plunge cutting.
