Milwaukee 48-00-5786 6" 24 TPI Torch SAWZALL Blade for Thin Metal, 5-Pack

The Milwaukee 48-00-5786 is a 6" Torch SAWZALL blade featuring a 24 TPI (teeth per inch) tooth configuration engineered specifically for cutting thin metal. Designed for use with Milwaukee SAWZALL reciprocating saws and other standard reciprocating saw models, this blade is sold in a convenient 5-pack, giving professional tradespeople and DIYers a ready supply of replacement blades for metal-cutting tasks on the jobsite. The higher 24 TPI tooth count is suited to thinner gauge metal, helping deliver a controlled cutting action where a lower tooth count could cause snagging or excess vibration. Whether tackling electrical conduit, sheet metal, or metal trim, this blade is designed to hold up to repeated cuts across a variety of thin-gauge metal materials.

Key Features

  • Blade Length: Measures 6" in length, sized to fit standard reciprocating saw (SAWZALL-style) tool holders for metal-cutting applications.
  • 24 TPI Tooth Configuration: A 24 teeth-per-inch pattern is designed for cutting thin metal stock, supporting a smoother, more controlled cut than lower-TPI blades.
  • Torch Series Construction: Part of Milwaukee's Torch line of SAWZALL blades, purpose-built for metal-cutting performance on the jobsite.
  • Thin Metal Application: Engineered specifically for cutting thin metal materials commonly encountered in trade and maintenance work.
  • Universal Fit: Compatible with Milwaukee SAWZALL reciprocating saws as well as other standard reciprocating saw models accepting universal blade shanks.
  • 5-Pack Quantity: Sold as a 5-pack, keeping a supply of replacement blades on hand to minimize downtime between cuts.

Milwaukee 48-00-5786 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What blade lengths does the Milwaukee Torch 24 TPI Sawzall blade come in?
The Torch thin-metal blade comes in three lengths: 6 inch (48-00-5786), 9 inch (48-00-5790), and 12 inch (48-00-5791). All three run the same 24 TPI thin-metal tooth pattern. Pick the 6 inch for conduit, strut and duct work in tight spaces; the longer 9 and 12 inch blades give you reach through deeper sections but flex more on thin stock.
2) Will a Milwaukee Torch Sawzall blade fit a DeWalt or Ryobi reciprocating saw?
Yes. The Torch blade uses the universal reciprocating saw shank, so it drops into Milwaukee Sawzall tools and any other standard reciprocating saw that accepts universal blade shanks.
3) Is 24 TPI the right tooth count for cutting EMT conduit and sheet metal?
Yes, that is exactly what the 24 TPI Torch blade is cut for. On thin-gauge material you want at least three teeth engaged in the wall thickness at all times; a coarse 6 or 10 TPI blade grabs and chatters on conduit and sheet. Use the 24 TPI for EMT, sheet metal, duct, metal trim, metal studs and light angle. For thicker solid stock, step down to a lower tooth count.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Milwaukee 48-00-5786 Torch blade from another brand for thin metal cutting?
The Lenox 20569S624R Metalwolf Wave Edge is the nearest match: it is a 6 inch bi-metal reciprocating blade at 24 TPI, the same length and tooth count as the Milwaukee 48-00-5786 Torch blade for thin metal. Both land in the same place for sheet metal, conduit, and metal trim where a 24 TPI pitch keeps multiple teeth in the material. The Milwaukee is sold as a 5-pack; the Lenox is from the Metalwolf Wave Edge series.
5) If I am cutting wood or framing lumber instead of metal, what blade should I use rather than a 24 TPI Torch blade?
Step down to a coarse wood pitch. The Lenox 20573S656R LUMBERWOLF is a 6 inch reciprocating blade at 6 TPI, where the Torch 48-00-5786 runs 24 TPI for thin metal. A 24 TPI blade packs its gullets with wood chips and burns; the 6 TPI tooth spacing clears sawdust on lumber and framing cuts. Same 6 inch length, so no change in reach.
6) How many blades come in a pack of Milwaukee 48-00-5786?
The 6 inch 48-00-5786 Torch blade is sold as a 5-pack, so one order gives a crew five blades of thin-metal stock rather than a single blade.
7) What is the difference between the Milwaukee Torch 24 TPI blade and the Lenox Metalwolf 24 TPI blade?
Both are 6 inch, 24 TPI metal-cutting recip blades, so either will handle conduit and sheet. The Lenox 20569S624R is a bi-metal blade in the Metalwolf Wave Edge series, with a wave-edge tooth form. The Milwaukee 48-00-5786 is from the Torch line of metal-cutting Sawzall blades and ships as a 5-pack. If you are standardizing a truck stock on Milwaukee, the Torch is the direct equivalent.
8) Which recip blade should I stock for cutting both metal and other materials on a rescue or mixed-material job?
The Torch 24 TPI is a dedicated thin-metal blade and will not do double duty. For mixed-material cutting where you hit metal plus other debris, the Lenox 20577850R Fire and Rescue blade is an 8 inch bi-metal with a 10/14 TPI variable pitch and also ships as a 5-pack. Carry the Torch 24 TPI alongside it for clean cuts on conduit, duct and sheet.
9) Will a 24 TPI Torch blade work for demolition cuts through nail-embedded material?
That is not what it is built for. The Milwaukee 48-00-5786 Torch blade is a 24 TPI blade engineered for thin metal such as sheet metal, conduit, and metal studs. For demolition and remodeling work, the Lenox 2014220 is a 6 inch by 1 inch Lazer CT carbide-tipped blade made for that duty. The carbide tooth tip is the differentiator for mixed material and embedded fasteners.
10) I need to cut thicker metal and mixed material in rescue-type cuts. Is a 24 TPI blade the right pitch?
For thicker stock a variable coarser pitch is the usual choice. The Lenox 20577850R is an 8 inch bi-metal Fire and Rescue blade at 10/14 TPI, sold in a 5-pack; the Milwaukee Torch 48-00-5786 is 6 inch at 24 TPI, which is pitched for thin gauge metal where a lower tooth count could snag. The 8 inch length also gives more reach through a thicker section. If you are staying on thin metal, the Torch pitch is the fit; if your sections vary in thickness, the 10/14 variable pitch covers more range.
11) Do I need a longer blade than 6 inches, and what are the options?
The Milwaukee Torch thin metal blade is offered in 6 inch (48-00-5786), 9 inch (48-00-5790), and 12 inch (48-00-5791), so added reach is available in the same 24 TPI thin metal pattern. Among the Lenox comparables, lengths run 6 inch for the Metalwolf Wave Edge 24 TPI and LUMBERWOLF 6 TPI blades and 8 inch for the Fire and Rescue 10/14 TPI blade. Choose length by how deep the cut sits behind the material, not by metal type.
12) Are Milwaukee Torch Sawzall blades made in the USA?
Country of origin on the Torch thin-metal Sawzall blades is the United States, which matters for government, institutional and other procurement with domestic sourcing requirements.
13) Will the Lenox blades fit the same saw as the Milwaukee Torch blades?
Yes. The Milwaukee Torch thin metal blades use a universal reciprocating shank and run in Milwaukee SAWZALL saws as well as other standard reciprocating saws. The Lenox comparables, including the 20569S624R Metalwolf Wave Edge and the 20577850R Fire and Rescue, are reciprocating saw blades on the same standard tool holder, so the decision is tooth pitch and length, not tool fit.
