The Bosch T101BIF 5-pack 3-1/4-inch 14 TPI bi-metal T-shank jigsaw blades execute straight, clean, splinter-free cuts through abrasive laminate flooring, laminated panels, and engineered wood surfaces.

Pro-Tip: When cutting high-pressure laminate flooring, cut with the decorative face pointing downward against the jigsaw baseplate; because standard jigsaw blades cut on the upstroke, downward feeding prevents chipping along the visible surface edge.
