27" Extreme Thin Metal Sub-Compact Band Saw Blade (3 PK)

What it is:

The 48-39-0711 is a Milwaukee Extreme Thin Metal sub-compact band saw blade (3-pack) designed for 27-inch portable band saws, primarily the M12 sub-compact models.

Key specs:

• Blade length: 27 inches
• Width: 1/2"
• Thickness: 0.020"
• TPI: 12/14 variable
• Material: Bi-metal (high-speed steel teeth)
• Pack size: 3 blades
• Fitment: M12 sub-compact band saws (e.g., 2429 series)

Key features:

• 12/14 TPI variable pitch: Cuts a wide range of metal thicknesses with one blade
• Extreme Thin Metal design: Optimized for thin and medium metals
• 3X life in stainless steel: Longer lifespan vs standard blades
• 2X faster cutting in thin metals: Improves productivity on jobsite
• Aggressive tooth geometry: Handles harder materials while maintaining speed
• Fewer blade changes: Designed for longer cutting cycles

In plain terms:

This is the smallest size band saw blade in the Milwaukee lineup (27"), made for sub-compact saws.

Best for cutting:

• EMT / conduit
• thin-wall steel
• threaded rod
• small pipe
• stainless (light to medium thickness)

The 12/14 TPI makes it:

• smooth enough for thinner materials
• still capable of moderate thickness without swapping blades

Where it fits in the lineup:

• 0711 (this): 27" → sub-compact (M12) saws
• 0630 / 0631: 30-9/16" → compact saws
• 0616: 35-3/8" → larger compact saws
• 0613: 44-7/8" → deep-cut saws

Simple takeaway:

• 48-39-0711 = 27" band saw blade (smallest / sub-compact)
• 12/14 TPI = versatile thin-to-medium metal cutting
• 3-pack = standard contractor set
• Designed specifically for M12 sub-compact band saws
