Question 5

Is this blade flexible enough for curved cuts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The blade is designed with enough flexibility to navigate curves and angles, while still delivering straight, accurate cuts when used properly.

Question 6

How does this blade compare to other 12-inch blades on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

Compared to blades with lower TPI, the 36 TPI ST93418 provides finer, smoother cuts and a cleaner finish, especially on thinner materials. For rougher or faster cuts, blades with lower TPI may cut more quickly but with a rougher edge. For reference, see these alternatives on Fepy:

Question 7

What are the best use cases for this blade?

Accepted Answer

Ideal for precise metal cutting tasks where a smooth finish is required, such as cutting pipes, rods, or thin metal sheets. It’s also suitable for plastics and light wood when you need clean, controlled cuts and minimal turning or binding.

Question 8

How can I maximize blade life?

Accepted Answer

Keep the frame properly tensioned to reduce blade wandering, use steady, even strokes without forcing the cut, let the blade do the work, and periodically check for wear or dullness. Avoid cutting through hardened or tempered materials that can accelerate wear.

Question 9

What safety precautions should I follow when using this hacksaw blade?

Accepted Answer

Wear eye protection and gloves, secure the workpiece with clamps, maintain a steady, controlled sawing motion, and avoid twisting the blade or applying excessive force. Keep fingers clear of the cutting area and ensure the work surface is stable.

Question 10

Is this blade compatible with most standard hacksaw frames?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is designed for quick installation on standard hacksaw frames and should fit most common blade holders without modification.

Question 11

What should I consider when deciding if this blade is right for my project?

Accepted Answer

Consider the material you’re cutting (metal, plastic, wood), the required finish (fine and smooth vs. rough), and how often you’ll need to replace blades. The 36 TPI blade offers a finer cut and longer-lasting sharpness for precision work, making it a strong value for detailed tasks.

What is the returns process if I need to exchange or return this blade?
