Diablo DS1209CGP 12" 6/9 TPI Demo Demon Carbide Reciprocating Saw Blade
The Diablo DS1209CGP 12-inch 6/9 TPI Demo Demon general-purpose reciprocating saw blade tears through nail-embedded timber, heavy metals from 1/8-inch to 3/8-inch wall thickness, structural framing studs, and dense PVC pipe. Engineered with high-performance TiCo high-density carbide teeth that deliver up to 50X longer cutting life compared to standard bi-metal blades, this 1-inch demolition body blade minimizes vibration and tracking deflection under heavy load. Outfitted with a specialized plunge-cut tip geometry, a heat-resistant Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating, and a universal 1/2-inch tang, it equips commercial demolition crews, remodelers, and framing contractors with fast, multi-material cutting across all corded and cordless reciprocating saws.
Best Used For:
- Structural Wall and Roof Demolition: Slicing through heavy 2x timber packed with hardened framing nails, lag screws, and structural metal framing plates without dulling carbide teeth.
- Heavy Metal and Mechanical Pipe Removal: Parting thick-walled schedule 40 steel pipe, angle iron, structural channel struts, and cast iron lines ranging from 1/8-inch to 3/8-inch thickness.
- Plunge Cutting Subfloors and Wall Openings: Initiating fast, non-binding plunge cuts into dense wood subflooring, roof decking, and heavy timber shear walls for utility pass-throughs.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- TiCo Hi-Density Carbide Teeth: Premium micro-grain carbide formulation delivers maximum wear resistance and up to 50X extended cutting life in multi-material demolition.
- Patented 6/9 Progressive TPI Geometry: Aggressive variable tooth pitch balances rapid chip evacuation in wood with smooth, low-vibration cutting in dense metals.
- 1-Inch Oversized Demolition Profile: Heavy-duty blade body provides superior structural rigidity to eliminate bending, whipping, and wandering during deep cuts.
- Specialized Fast Plunge Tip: Engineered nose profile allows tradesmen to execute quick, controlled plunge entries directly into dense wood assemblies.
- Perma-SHIELD Non-Stick Thermal Barrier: Proprietary red coating prevents frictional heat buildup, resists gumming in pressure-treated lumber, and protects against corrosion.
- Universal 1/2-Inch Tang Interface: Delivers a secure mechanical lock across all major corded and cordless reciprocating saw chuck mechanisms.

Pro-Tip: When plunge cutting through structural timber or heavy subflooring, place the saw shoe firmly against the workpiece at a 45-degree angle, engage maximum blade speed, and pivot the blade slowly into the cut; this prevents the carbide plunge tip from catching and bucking.
