Product Details
- Designed for cutting almost any material
- High speed steel hacksaw blade
- Suitable for use on modern machines with skilled operators and a high degree of control
- Correct blade tension is essential for ensuring a straight kerf and a long useful life of the blade
- If the tension is too low, the blade will bend upwards or twist, giving rise to high stresses, heavy wear of the blade and uneven, crooked kerfs
- Excessive tension causes high stresses in the blade and saw frame
- As a general rule, harder materials call for a lower stroke rate and higher feed pressure
- If the chips are burnt, feed pressure is too high
- If tooth cracks appear, feed pressure is too high
- Fine, powdery chips indicate that feed pressure is too low
- Fine curled chips indicate the optimal feed pressure
- The teeth should not be touching the workpiece when the machine is started
- A useful rule of thumb is that at least three teeth should be engaged at any time
HSS Powersaw Blades have consistent performance and long life and are capable of cutting a broad cross-section of materials, even the most difficult tough alloys such as stainless steel, with great accuracy. Available in a variety of lengths to suit most powersaw machines.
