Tooth Form; Optional Accessories - Jet JWSS-18B Operating Instructions And Parts Manual

12.5 Tooth form

Figure 12-2 shows common blade forms. Tooth
form has an effect on cutting rate.
Regular: Standard blade form with evenly spaced
teeth and zero-degree rake angle. Offers clean cuts
at slower feed rates.
Skip Tooth: More space between teeth, for good
chip removal and fast cuts.
Double Tooth: A skip tooth with larger gaps
between tooth sets; good chip removal, fast cutting.
Reverse Tooth: Prevents underside tear-out,
leaves clean edge.
Spiral: Cuts on all sides without turning workpiece;
limited application but good for looser fretwork.
Crown Tooth: Cuts on both up and down strokes
for clean, splinter-free edges. Depending on blade
oscillation settings, a crown tooth blade may often
be turned over for a fresh set of cutting teeth.
