Stanley FatMax Folding Jab Saw 130mm (5in) 8 TPI

The Stanley FatMax Folding Jab Saw is a specialised hand tool designed for cutting through materials like plasterboard, drywall, and other sheet materials. Its folding design makes it compact and safe for storage and transport, while the hardened and tempered blade provides durability for demanding tasks. The saw features a sharp point specifically engineered for punching through plasterboard without requiring a pilot hole, making it ideal for quick installation and modification work. Key features include a triple-bevelled tooth pattern that reportedly allows for cutting up to 50% faster than conventional teeth, reducing user effort. The blade locks securely at three different angles: 90°, 135°, and 180°, providing versatility for cuts in tight corners or awkward positions. The handle is ergonomically designed with a bi-material construction, combining high-impact plastic with soft-touch inserts for a comfortable, anti-slip grip during extended use. A large, smooth end pad on the handle facilitates pushing and twisting the blade through material. This jab saw is best suited for tradespeople such as electricians, plumbers, and plasterers, as well as serious DIY enthusiasts undertaking renovation or construction projects. Its primary application is in creating openings for electrical boxes, pipes, or vents in plasterboard walls and ceilings. The tool's aggressive tooth form and practical locking mechanism make it a reliable addition to any toolkit where precise, controlled cutting of sheet materials is regularly required.
