Milwaukee 49-22-1168 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Milwaukee 49-22-1178 jig saw blades fit my saw, or do I need U-shank?
The 49-22-1178 set is T-shank, which is the common tool-free fitment on most modern jig saws. If your saw takes U-shank blades, order the 49-22-1168 version of the same 5-piece bi-metal set instead. Check the blade clamp on your saw: a T-shank blade has the tang notched on both sides near the top, a U-shank has a rounded slot. They are not interchangeable.
2) Are these Milwaukee bi-metal jig saw blades good for cutting metal as well as wood?
Yes. Bi-metal construction is the reason: a flexible spring-steel body welded to hardened cutting edges, which is what lets a blade cut sheet metal and thin stock without snapping. Milwaukee lists the set for wood cutting and trimming as well as metal cutting and fabrication work, so it covers general remodel and repair cutting rather than being a wood-only blade.
3) Is bi-metal worth it over a plain high-carbon steel jig saw blade?
For mixed-material work, yes. High-carbon steel blades are cheaper and cut wood fine, but they dull fast in metal and break more easily when the blade flexes in a deep or curved cut. Bi-metal pairs the flexible body with hardened teeth, so it survives nail-embedded wood and sheet metal that would ruin HCS. If every cut is clean softwood or plywood, HCS is the economical pick.
4) Can I use these Milwaukee blades in a jig saw from another brand like DeWalt or Bosch?
Yes, as long as the saw accepts T-shank blades. T-shank is an industry-standard fitment, not a Milwaukee-only profile, so the 49-22-1178 blades run in any brand of T-shank jig saw.
5) How many blades come in the Milwaukee 49-22-1178 set?
Five blades per set. It is sold as blade stock, so the practical use is keeping spares in the case for a crew rather than buying a single blade per cut. Nothing else is included, no saw and no adapter.
6) Do I need any tools to change these jig saw blades?
No. The T-shank profile drops into a keyless blade clamp, so changes are tool-free on any saw built for T-shank blades. Older saws with a set-screw clamp will still accept a T-shank blade mechanically, but you will need the hex key for that saw.
