SAW PROFILE

Hacksaw blade selection

A hacksaw is simple, but frame pin pattern, blade length, tooth direction, and pitch still need to match the section being cut.

Best at
  • Small metal sections
  • Tubing and conduit
  • Quiet, low-cost field cuts
Selection limits
  • Slow on large sections
  • Fine teeth clog in soft thick material
  • Insufficient tooth engagement strips teeth quickly

FIT BEFORE APPLICATION

A blade can cut the material and still be wrong for the saw.

SawMatch keeps length visible because product-category fit is not enough. Read the tool manual and the full blade label before installation.
