Milwaukee 48-00-1303 12" 5 TPI Fleam Ground Pruning SAWZALL Blade for Clean Wood, 5-Pack

The Milwaukee 48-00-1303 SAWZALL Blade is a 12" reciprocating saw blade purpose-built for pruning clean wood. Featuring a 5 TPI (teeth per inch) tooth count paired with a Fleam ground tooth geometry, this blade is engineered to deliver fast, clean cuts through branches, limbs, and general wood material. The Fleam ground design helps reduce splintering and produces a smoother cut edge, which is especially valuable when working on live or clean wood during pruning and trimming projects. This listing includes a 5-pack of blades, so landscapers, arborists, tree-care professionals, and contractors always have spare SAWZALL blades ready to swap in without interrupting the job. Built to fit Milwaukee SAWZALL reciprocating saws, the 48-00-1303 blade is a practical choice for anyone who regularly cuts through wood in outdoor maintenance or construction settings.

Key Features

  • Blade Length: 12" overall length gives extra reach for cutting through thicker branches and larger sections of wood.
  • Tooth Count: 5 TPI tooth pattern is designed for fast, aggressive material removal when cutting wood.
  • Fleam Ground Teeth: The Fleam ground tooth geometry produces clean, precise cuts and helps minimize splintering on clean wood.
  • Pruning-Focused Design: Purpose-built for pruning clean wood, making it well suited for tree limbs, shrubs, and similar cutting tasks.
  • 5-Pack Quantity: Sold as a 5-pack of blades, keeping spares on hand so cutting work doesn't stop when a blade wears out.
  • SAWZALL Compatibility: Designed to work with Milwaukee SAWZALL reciprocating saws for dependable, repeatable performance.
  • Clean Wood Optimized: Tooth design and geometry are matched to clean wood cutting applications rather than nail-embedded or demolition material.

Milwaukee 48-00-1301 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What lengths does the Milwaukee pruning SAWZALL blade come in?
Two lengths: 9 inch (Milwaukee 48-00-1301) and 12 inch (48-00-1303). The 12 inch gives more reach for thicker limbs and larger wood sections; the 9 inch is easier to control in tight brush and between branches. Both carry the same 5 TPI fleam ground tooth pattern for clean wood.
2) Will this Milwaukee blade cut through nail-embedded wood or demolition material?
No. The 48-00-1303 is matched to clean wood, not nail-embedded or demolition material. Its 5 TPI fleam ground teeth are shaped for fast, smooth cuts in live and clean wood, and running them into fasteners will strip teeth. For demo and remodeling work with embedded metal, the Lenox 2014220 Lazer CT carbide-tipped blade is built for that application.
3) What is the closest wood-cutting alternative to the Milwaukee 48-00-1303 pruning blade?
For general wood cutting, the Lenox 20573S656R LUMBERWOLF is a 6-inch reciprocating saw blade at 6 TPI. The Milwaukee 48-00-1303 is a 12-inch blade with a 5 TPI fleam ground tooth pattern built for pruning clean wood, with a 9-inch 48-00-1301 also offered. The LUMBERWOLF's shorter 6-inch length suits framing lumber and tighter work, while the 12-inch Milwaukee gives reach through thicker limbs.
4) Can I use a pruning SAWZALL blade for cutting metal conduit or pipe?
No. The Milwaukee 48-00-1303 is a 5 TPI blade matched to clean wood cutting, not metal. For metal, the Lenox 20569S624R Metalwolf Wave Edge is a 6-inch 24 TPI bi-metal blade -- the much finer tooth pitch is what keeps teeth engaged in thin-wall metal instead of stripping them.
5) Does the 48-00-1303 fit saws other than a Milwaukee SAWZALL?
It is made for Milwaukee SAWZALL reciprocating saws. It uses the standard universal reciprocating saw blade tang that nearly every corded or cordless recip saw accepts, so it will chuck into other brands of saw as well.
6) How many blades come in a pack of the Milwaukee 48-00-1303?
Five blades per pack. That is aimed at crews doing a day of pruning, where a blade dulls partway through and you want a spare in the case rather than a trip back to the truck.
7) Why 5 TPI for pruning instead of a finer-tooth blade?
Low tooth count means big gullets, and big gullets clear wet, stringy wood chips instead of packing up. At 5 TPI the Milwaukee pruning blade removes material fast through green limbs. A fine-tooth blade like the Lenox Metalwolf Wave Edge at 24 TPI is for metal, and it will load and burn in wood. For general lumber, 6 TPI blades such as the Lenox LUMBERWOLF are the closer alternative.
8) Is a fire and rescue reciprocating blade a substitute for a pruning blade on a tree crew?
They solve different problems. The Lenox 20577850R is an 8-inch bi-metal fire and rescue blade at 10/14 TPI, sold in a 5-pack, with a variable fine pitch for mixed materials in rescue cutting. The Milwaukee 48-00-1303 is a 12-inch 5 TPI fleam ground blade for pruning clean wood and also comes in a 5-pack, with the coarse pitch clearing wet wood chips that a 10/14 TPI blade would pack.
9) What does fleam ground mean on a reciprocating saw blade?
Fleam grinding puts an angled bevel on the tooth face so it slices wood fibers instead of chiseling them. On the 48-00-1303 that means less splintering and a smoother cut face, which matters on live wood where you want a clean pruning wound rather than a torn one.
10) Is this the right blade for a landscaping crew standardizing on one pruning blade?
For clean-wood pruning, yes. The Milwaukee pruning SAWZALL blade is sold in 9 inch and 12 inch, both 5 TPI fleam ground, so a crew can stock one tooth pattern in two reaches. Keep a separate blade for anything with nails or metal in it, since this tooth geometry is not intended for that.
