Jigsaw blades for METAL
A metal jigsaw blade allows us to use the jigsaw to cut metal pieces. It won’t allow us to do much compared to other more specialized machines, but with the right cutting blade, we can cut some metal sheets and even some metal tubes.
Metal-cutting blades for the jigsaw are characterized by their very small teeth and a slight wave along the tooth line. Additionally, these blades are generally somewhat short, as a jigsaw is not the most suitable tool for cutting thick metal. And I suppose they are made of harder metal than what is used to make wood blades.

For cutting STAINLESS STEEL with the jigsaw
When cutting stainless steel, we usually deal with thin sheets or plates, so manufacturers sell jigsaw blades for stainless steel that are typically shorter than those for wood. Generally, these jigsaw blades for stainless steel have the same small tooth design as regular metal blades, but they are made from a more durable metal that is capable of cutting through tough stainless steel.
There are also very specific jigsaw blades for cutting stainless steel on the market, in which the cutting teeth are on a narrow carbide strip that is somehow welded to the front of the blade. It’s interesting to see a typical cutting blade with that small carbide strip on the front.
Long metal-cutting blades
Sometimes we need a bit of extra length when cutting metal, perhaps to cut a profile. There are also extra-long jigsaw blades for metal available. These slightly longer metal blades can be useful, but the metal layer to be cut should not be too thick. Always remember to check the maximum thickness of metal that they can cut.
In my case, they are useful for cutting metal pipes with my bearing guides (although they are a bit shorter than the ones I use for wood and just reach the bearings).
