Features

  • HS bi-metal blade Provides a strong combination of cutting durability, flexibility and heat resistance for metal applications.
  • 230mm blade length Offers useful reach for pipes, profiles, sandwich elements and thicker metal cutting tasks.
  • 1.60mm tooth pitch Suitable for controlled metal cutting, especially in steel and iron profiles up to 8mm wall thickness.
  • 17 TPI tooth configuration Delivers a finer metal-cutting tooth pattern for cleaner, more controlled cutting.
  • Cross-set tooth design Helps increase cutting speed and improve progress through suitable metal materials.
  • Flexible saw blade Useful for flush cutting pipes and profiles close to walls, floors or other surfaces.
  • Universal S-shank fitting Fits the Festool RSC 18 and compatible reciprocating saws with an S-shank blade holder.

Benefits

  • Longer service life: The wear-resistant bi-metal construction is designed to handle the heat and friction produced when cutting metal.
  • Faster work progress: Cross-set teeth help the blade cut efficiently through steel, iron and metal profiles.
  • Better control in metal: The 1.6mm pitch and 17 TPI tooth pattern help produce controlled cuts in suitable metal materials.
  • Excellent site versatility: Suitable for metal pipes, profiles, thick metal sheets, sandwich elements and non-ferrous metals.
  • Flush cutting capability: The flexible blade body makes it easier to cut metal pipes close to walls and surfaces.
  • Convenient pack size: The 5-piece set gives users spare blades for workshop, fabrication and jobsite work.

Application

  • Cutting steel and stainless steel
  • Cutting iron and non-ferrous metals
  • Sawing metal pipes flush with walls or surfaces
  • Cutting tubes and metal profiles
  • Cutting thick metal sheets up to 8mm
  • Cutting sandwich elements
  • Metal fabrication and installation work
  • Renovation, dismantling and site maintenance applications

Extra Information

  • The HSR 230/1,6 BI/5 is suitable for the Festool RSC 18 cordless reciprocating saw.
  • The universal S-shank allows quick fitting on compatible reciprocating saws with an S-shank blade mount.
  • The blue Festool colour coding identifies this blade as suitable for metal machining.
  • The 1.6mm pitch is ideal for steel and iron profiles with a wall thickness of up to 8mm.
  • The flexible blade body makes the blade useful for flush cutting metal pipes close to walls.
  • This is a 5-piece pack, ideal for keeping spare blades ready for fabrication, installation and maintenance jobs.

Pro Tips

  • Use a slower, controlled cutting speed when cutting metal to reduce heat build-up and improve blade life.
  • Keep the saw shoe firmly against the workpiece to reduce vibration and prevent tooth damage.
  • Do not force the blade through metal. Let the teeth cut steadily for cleaner results and longer blade life.
  • For metal pipe cuts, support the pipe properly to prevent movement, vibration or blade pinching.
  • When flush cutting near a wall, allow the flexible blade to bend naturally without twisting or overloading it.
  • Allow the blade to cool after heavy cutting, as metal cutting can generate significant heat.

How to Use

  • Disconnect the saw from its power source or remove the battery before fitting the blade.
  • Insert the Festool HSR 230/1,6 BI/5 blade into the compatible S-shank blade holder until it locks securely.
  • Check that the blade is correctly seated before starting the saw.
  • Secure the metal workpiece properly to prevent vibration or movement during cutting.
  • Place the saw shoe firmly against the material before starting the cut.
  • Start the saw and allow the blade to enter the metal at a controlled speed.
  • Use steady pressure and avoid forcing, twisting or bending the blade unnecessarily.
  • For flush cuts, guide the flexible blade carefully against the surface while maintaining control of the saw.
  • Allow the blade to stop completely before removing it from the cut.
  • Handle the blade carefully after use, as it may be hot from cutting metal.

  • Ensure the blade is properly locked into the saw before starting work.
  • Keep both hands on the saw and maintain a stable working position during cutting.
  • Do not force or twist the blade during the cut, as this can damage the blade or reduce control.
