Blades for Ingesoll rand air saw ?

[JackB]

I have a Ingersoll Rand airsaw and I can't find blades for it.
The blades that came with the saw doesn't have holes in them and all I can find are blades with holes. As can be seen in the pictures the saw has two opposing bolts that keep the blade in place.

Any info where I can find blades like that online would be very nice.

The holes shouldnt matter, but if it bothers you, just hit on ebay "air saw blades"

There are many listings with blades sans holes. You might find it interesting that IR branded blades have holes in them

I have seen that all the IR blades have holes in them, and I found it quite weird.
Will the screws just fit against each other inside the hole when used with blades with holes in them ? I was imagining that it would cause issues with side-to-side movement but that might not be the case ?

Hi Jack

I just got the same IR saw from a member here today...and if you're still wondering, the holes do not seem to matter. As you can see from the pictures, the holding screws bite in front of the holes.
