SATA ST93417 12" Hacksaw Blade (24 Teeth)

According to the technical specifications, the blade has 24 teeth per inch (TPI) and a 12 inch length. The item description also mentions 18 TPI, which creates a discrepancy. The 24 TPI specification will typically give finer, cleaner cuts; the 18 TPI would cut faster but with a rougher finish. If exact TPI matters for your project, verify the package or product listing before use.

This blade is described as versatile for cutting metal, plastic, and wood, making it suitable for a range of projects from metal fabrication to DIY woodworking and plastic trimming.

To install, open the hacksaw frame, insert the blade so the teeth point forward toward the handle, align the blade in the frame slots, and secure firmly with the frame bolts. Ensure the blade is taut and straight before starting any cut.

The blade uses high speed steel and has precision hardened, high frequency heat treated teeth. These features help maintain sharpness and resist wear, extending tool life and reducing the frequency of blade changes.
