Great blades for sheet metal
These blades go great in my Bosch Progressor jig saw when its time to cut sheet metal. For this job, I always clamp the metal down to a piece of scrap plywood then cut through both metal and wood with one of these blades using a mid-range orbital action setting on the jigsaw. By going slow and careful, this produces clean and fast cuts in the sheet metal without the vibration and noise you get when not using a backing material. I wouldn’t put anything but genuine Bosch blades in my Progressor jig saw.

Festool- Makita etc
Actually these blades DO fit a number of other jigsaws. Good blades, but Festool is 1 lb lighter and has a true dust extractor system, AND takes a Collins coping foot (which the Bosch 1590-1591 will not). Bosch blades are still great. Use them with other saws, too. 5 stars if they came in 145 or 155 mm lengths for sandwich materials, as Festool blades do.

A perfect match
My head Bosch blades and they are such an improvement over my old (like 40 years) Black & Decker that my friend who helps professional builder to remodel my house was very impressed. I used it primarily to reduce the composite decking at the beginning and the blade seems to last forever and he even cut Hardy Plank for small holes where necessary (even if it fades very quickly as any other blade on this product based on cement). Great Blade!
