Bahco Sandflex Bi-Metal Power Hacksaw Blade 450mm 6 TPI

• Suitable for use on any material

• Sandflex is virtually an unbreakable bi-metal hacksaw blade

• Shatterproof blade that can withstand high feed pressures yet giving accurate, fast cutting rates

• Sandflex blades are safer to use in all circumstances, especially on old machines or with unskilled operators

• 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

• Teeth Per Inch: 6

• Length: 450mm

• Width: 38mm

• Thickness: 2mm

• Weight: 249g
