Holds up to 50 times longer than a bi-metal blade in tough materials. In rescue operations on vehicles, the ability to quickly penetrate a car can mean the difference between life and death. Rescue services are increasingly using reciprocating saws as valuable rescue tools. However, they require a truly good saw blade that can reliably cut through modern automotive steel. The Expert 'Vehicle Rescue' is designed for this crucial task. This expert in vehicle dismantling not only features ultra-hard carbide in the teeth but also a special tip design that allows the blade to make plunge cuts in sheet metal. It is used in typical rescue operations, such as cutting a side or roof access to passengers. The short S957CHM version is ideal for removing windshields, while the longer S1157CHM version is designed for cutting A, B, and C pillars made of reinforced steel. The Bosch Expert 'Vehicle Rescue' reciprocating saw blade, made with Bosch Carbide Technology, cuts modern vehicles quickly and reliably, helping you save lives. Compatible with all S-shank reciprocating saws, which are sometimes referred to as demolition saws. Tooth pitch: 3.3, 8 mm / TPI, total length: 150 mm / 6 inches, width: 20 mm, thickness: 1.35 mm, material: carbide, CT, HCS, applications: rescue operations and vehicle dismantling.
