The DEWALT DW3710-5 4-Inch 10 TPI Fine Finish Jig Saw Blade is a five-pack of U-shank blades designed for smooth, tear-resistant cuts in wood, plywood, and composites. The 10 TPI fine-tooth pattern leaves a clean edge, while the cobalt alloy steel body resists wear and maintains sharpness. These blades are a useful choice for finish carpentry, hobby projects, and light demolition. Many users also get clean results on plastic and acrylic when they adjust speed and feed rate—more on that below.
DEWALT DW3710-5 Jig Saw Blades: Fine Finish Wood Cutting with Added Plastic/Acrylic Versatility
The DW3710-5 fits jigsaws with a U-shank tang, the older but still widely used blade mount. At just 4 inches long, the blade is nimble enough for curved cuts and detail work. With 10 teeth per inch, it cuts wood with minimal splintering, and that same tooth density helps produce smooth edges on plastics like ABS, PVC, and acrylic when the saw is set to a moderate speed.
Why Cobalt Alloy Steel?
Most general-purpose blades are high-carbon steel. Cobalt alloy steel adds heat resistance and hardness, which extends blade life in both wood and abrasive plastics. That means fewer blade changes and more consistent cuts over a full project.
Tips for Cutting Plastic and Acrylic with the DW3710-5
- Clamp the work piece securely and support the cut line.
- Set the jigsaw speed to medium and use little or no orbital action.
- Tape along the cut line to reduce chipping on acrylic.
- Feed the blade slowly and let the teeth do the cutting—do not push hard.
