Reciprocating Saw

A reciprocating saw—often called a Sawzall—is a powerhouse tool known for its back-and-forth blade motion, making it ideal for rough cuts and demolition. Here's a breakdown of its most common and creative uses:

Core Uses

• Demolition: Easily cuts through wood, drywall, nails, and even metal framing. Perfect for tearing down walls or removing old fixtures.

• Pruning & Landscaping: With a wood blade, it can trim branches and shrubs. Great for storm cleanup too.

• Plumbing & HVAC: Cuts through PVC, copper, and metal pipes—even in tight spaces.

• Metal Cutting: With the right blade, it slices through rebar, sheet metal, and bolts.

• Drywall & Framing: Makes plunge cuts for electrical boxes or window openings.
