What Is a Reciprocating Saw?

To understand the various reciprocating saw parts, you need to understand the tool as a whole. At its core, a reciprocating saw is a type of electric saw which achieves its cutting action via push a push and pull motion. Oftentimes less powerful than other saws, and many times available in a handheld form, it is a popular tool used by window fitters, construction workers, emergency rescue services, and even landscapers (due to its ability to efficiently cut tree limbs).

Tips for Replacing Reciprocating Saw Parts

There are, as you can see from our product list, quite a few items that can break when using a reciprocating saw; thus, it’s hard to point at any one method of fixing. However, here are a few of the most commonly broken parts:

  • Gears: The gears on the inside of your saw are the parts that ensure proper reciprocation. If your saw is not reciprocating—i.e. not sawing—correctly, it may be that gear on the interior of your tool is broken or missing teeth. This is a common problem that can be fixed via replacement parts but is not easily performed. Call today if you believe your saw’s gears are broken, and we will do what we can to walk you through the steps.
  • Blades: One of the most common problems encountered with reciprocating saw parts is broken or stuck saw blades. If the saw is broken, we have many brands of blades you can use to replace it. However, if the blade is stuck, it may be the result of a broken locking mechanism (or a piece floating around inside the saw itself). Try disengaging the saw mechanism to see if you can get the broken saw piece out of the machine; if this does not work, try replacing your locking mechanism or the blade itself.
  • Blade Pins: Blade pins, or screws, often become rusted or broken during the use of a reciprocating saw. If this is the case, you may have trouble inserting new blades properly. Replace your blade pins and screws if blade insertion is more of a hassle than usual.
