Reciprocating Saws

Reciprocating saws

The reciprocating saw is primarily characterized by its versatility. Unlike band saws, circular saws, stone saws or jigsaws, reciprocating saws can be used for a wide variety of materials. These specialist saws have advantages as to the accuracy of their sawing and often achieve better cutting edges than universal devices. Nevertheless, the reciprocating saw is a professional cutting tool with multi-layered applications. It's simple and flexible operation delivers convincing results with only a little practice.

Types of reciprocating saws

Tiger saws are pendulum reciprocating saws, which powerfully drive the saw blade at different speeds. But an electric reciprocating saw can also be used for a wide variety of materials. You do not have to use a different saw for different materials, but can simply change the saw blade and adjust the speed for different jobs with one device.

For a quick change of the saw blade, there is often an SDS system for optimally integrating the reciprocating saw into your workflow. Whether you want to cut wooden beams and then a metal pipe, the saw blade can be changed in just a few steps without any lengthy interruption. Adjusting the speed according to the material on the electric reciprocating saw is equally effortlessly.

A cordless reciprocating saw enables an even more flexible operation, especially in confined spaces. On construction sites, many areas are difficult to access during shell construction or there is no direct power connection. The reciprocating saw battery provides the Tiger Saw with the power you need to make accurate cuts with the cordless foxtail in any situation, whether overhead or beneath a ledge.

Reciprocating saw for metal

If you want to cut metal with reciprocating saws, you need a reciprocating saw blade with an appropriate hardness and a small tooth pitch. The saw teeth are milled and set to achieve optimum cutting results. With the beak saw you can cut up to 20 mm in stainless steel, steel sheets or steel pipes. But there are also saw blades for non-ferrous metals, aluminium or wood with nails available. In addition to the selection of the saw blade, an optimal speed for cutting metal is crucial. The speed of most saws is seamlessly adjustable.

Reciprocating saw for stone and metal

Electric reciprocating saws can be effortlessly equipped with the appropriate saw blade for cutting stone or concrete. The saw blades have carbide toothing and a wide tooth pitch. Large-area recesses in the saw blade body ensure smooth and straight cuts. With the right saw blade, the tiger saw can cut masonry such as bricks, but also aerated concrete or cement slabs – safely and purposefully. The speed at which the saw operates is crucial for the quality of the cut.

Reciprocating saw for wood

Electric reciprocating saws enable you to cut into wood up to 220 mm. You can cut thick wooden beams just as easily as branches in the garden or wooden window frames. Corresponding saw blades for reciprocating saws are effortlessly clamped with an SDS mount so that changing it for different types of wood – be it soft or hard wood – is effortless. Since the cutting edges can occasionally fray when cutting wood, the reciprocating saw electric is valued primarily for its flexibility in woodworking and shows good results in garden pruning or demolition work.

What is a saber saw used for?

Anyone who needs to perform different cutting work should always have a tiger saw at hand. Depending on which saw blades for reciprocating saw you use, a wide variety of materials can be cut quickly and easily. With a reciprocating saw with a battery, even work in demanding environments becomes possible, whether at a height of 5 m when pruning trees or on a false floor on the construction site. Cordless reciprocating saws cut reliably with minimal effort.

Where are tiger saws used?

The reciprocating saw is a universal tool that shows its strengths wherever flexible, yet targeted, sawing is required. Be it on a construction site to cut building blocks, aerated concrete or metal pipes. But also in horticulture or for cutting wooden formwork, the sabre tooth saw is a true all-rounder. It is important to always choose the right saw blade and adjust the speed of the device according to the job at hand. This transforms the electric saw in a few simple steps into a true professional for numerous works.
