HACKSAW BLADES
ICS hand hacksaw blades can be used to cut
a variety of materials and shapes. The proper blade will provide maximum
blade life and high cutting efficiency. Selection depends on several
considerations.
TEETH PER INCH
14 TOOTH BLADE - COARSE -
1" OR GREATER CROSS SECTION CUTTING
18 TOOTH BLADE - MEDIUM - 1/4" TO 1" CROSS SECTION CUTTING
24 TOOTH BLADE - FINE - SHEET METAL CUTTING AND TUBING
32 TOOTH BLADE - VERY FINE - UP TO 1/16" THICKNESS CUTTING
18 TOOTH BLADE - MEDIUM - 1/4" TO 1" CROSS SECTION CUTTING
24 TOOTH BLADE - FINE - SHEET METAL CUTTING AND TUBING
32 TOOTH BLADE - VERY FINE - UP TO 1/16" THICKNESS CUTTING
TOOTH SELECTION: Selecting a blade with
the correct number of teeth is dependent on the thickness and type
of material to be cut. The teeth must never straddle the material and
at least 3 teeth must always be in contact. For thin sections the highest
number of teeth should be selected.
