Constructed from high‑grade carbide, the blade maintains sharpness longer than conventional steel alternatives, delivering consistent performance even after extensive use. Measuring 6.5 inches in length with a 7.2 mm cutting width, the blade provides a balanced profile that fits seamlessly into the ARBORTECH ALLSAW AS170 and AS175 models, as well as compatible devices such as the ALL.FG.175110.20. Its compact design, black finish, and lightweight construction (0.01 ounces) make it easy to handle while ensuring optimal control during each cut.

Usage

This headjoint blade excels in tuckpointing, mortar removal, and brick cleaning on vertical joints. Whether you are restoring historic facades, performing new construction, or conducting routine maintenance, the blade’s 75 mm (3 in) cutting depth and 7.2 mm (9/32 in) width allow you to remove mortar without damaging surrounding masonry.
