Diablo’s new range of AMPED™ Steel Demon™ reciprocating saw blades are “AMPing Up” thick metal cutting with the introduction of the industry’s first ever industrial grade coating, Black Industrial Cooling Element (I.C.E.). The ultra-slick Black I.C.E. coating protects cutting edge against wear for extreme durability and longer blade life. High performance TiCo Hi-Density carbide delivers an unmatched up to 100X longer cutting life in metal cutting applications ranging in thickness from 3/16" to 9/16". The combination of Black I.C.E. and Diablo’s carbide delivers extended life and an impressive up to 2X increased performance vs. standard metal cutting carbide reciprocating saw blades. Diablo made TiCo Hi-Density carbide delivers the greatest durability and cutting performance in thick metal applications Black I.C.E. coating protects cutting edge against wear for extreme durability and longer blade life Enhanced carbide tip to blade connection for extreme impact resistance 1" oversized blade body provides stability and rigidity for straighter cuts with less vibration Perma-SHIELD® resists heat build-up by protecting the blade against gumming and corrosion
