18T HSS Bi-Metal Hacksaw Blade

  • Bimetal hacksaw blades can be used for all types of metals and is break-resistant and are characterized by their flexibility
  • The body is made of spring steel and the teeth are made of High-speed Steel (HSS)

Cutting applications:

  • Stainless steel/Inox
  • Steel
  • Non-ferrous metals

How to use a hacksaw:

  1. Clamp the workpiece in a vise
  2. Select the correct TPI blade for the material thickness
  3. Align the blade in the hacksaw with the teeth facing forward
  4. The cutting action is normally in the push direction at 60 strokes per minute, using the entire length of the blade
  5. Close to the end of the cut, decrease the rate of cut

Generally speaking... The blade doesn't cut faster by leaning heavily on the hacksaw or cutting at a faster rate.
