Olson Scroll Saw Blades — 25 TPI Metal Cutting, 127 mm Length, 12-Pack (Model SSB48700)
The Olson SSB48700 set contains twelve high-quality plain-end scroll saw blades, each measuring 127 mm (5″) in length, with a fine tooth count of 25 TPI (teeth per inch). These blades are engineered for precision cutting of thin metal sheets (up to ~3 mm / 1/8″) and other hard or non-metallic materials where a clean finish is essential.
Extra Information
- Check your scroll saw uses plain-end (not pinned) blades and supports 127 mm length before using this set.
- These blades are optimal for metals up to ~3 mm (1/8″) thick; thicker or very hard metals may require more specialised blades or different tooth profiles.
- Maintain proper blade tension, secure workpiece, and feed material steadily to avoid blade deflection or poor finish.
Pro Tip
- When switching from wood to metal cutting, clearly label this blade pack “Metal 25 TPI Plain” in your workshop so the right blade is grabbed each time.
- Since metal cutting generates fine chips and heat, use a slower feed speed and ensure adequate cooling or flushing if required — the fine 25 TPI blade needs smooth, stable cutting.
Features
- 127 mm (5″) length — fits most standard plain-end scroll saw machines.
- 25 TPI (teeth per inch) — ideal for fine, difficult-to-cut materials like thin metal or hard composites.
- Plain-end format (no pins) — for machines that accept plain blades rather than pinned blades.
- Pack of 12 blades — gives good value and longer usage between restocks.
Benefits
- High precision finish: The 25 TPI provides smoother edges and reduces the need for secondary finishing when cutting thin metal or detailed parts.
- Versatile for metal work: Specifically designed for thin metals (~3 mm) and harder non-metal materials where conventional wood blades struggle.
- Better value pack: Twelve blades in one pack gives you more runtime before replacement — efficient for workshops or frequent jobs.
Safety
- Wear eye protection and face shield when using scroll saws — metal chips or fragments may eject.
- Ensure the workpiece and machine are stable, and the blade is properly installed and tensioned before start-up.
- Feed material steadily and avoid forcing the cut — fine-tooth blades are more prone to heating or deflection under excess load.
- Replace blades when finish quality drops, the blade deflects, or teeth appear worn to maintain safety and accuracy.
