FAQs
Can this saw be used for wood cutting?
While it can cut soft wood, the teeth configuration of a metal hacksaw blade is optimized for metal; for regular wood use, a dedicated wood saw is recommended.
What is the maximum cutting depth?
The E115122 has a cutting capacity of 100mm.
Is the handle replaceable?
The handle is integrated into the design for structural stability and is not intended to be replaced as a standalone component.
Does it come with a spare blade?
The unit includes one 300mm bi-metal blade as standard.
Can I use 10-inch blades with this tool?
No, this hacksaw is designed specifically for standard 300mm (12-inch) blades.
How much does the hacksaw weigh?
The total weight of the tool is 590g.
Troubleshooting
Blade continues to twist during cuts
Ensure the tensioning lever is fully engaged and the blade is properly seated in the mount pins.
Difficulty initiating a clean cut
Use a file to create a small notch to guide the blade or reduce the angle of attack at the start of the stroke.
Lever feels stiff or difficult to close
Apply a small amount of lubricant to the pivot point of the tension lever and remove any debris from the blade mounting area.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High tension rating ensures stable, precise cutting
- Durable chrome steel frame construction
- Convenient lever-action tension mechanism
- Ergonomic revolver handle design
- Standard 300mm blade compatibility
Cons
- Heavier than entry-level plastic hacksaws
- Non-adjustable frame depth for irregular shapes
- Requires proper maintenance to prevent rust on the steel bow
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the hacksaw, open the tension lever to release the blade from the front and rear mounts. Insert the new 300mm blade with the teeth facing forward (away from the handle). Once in position, close the lever to lock the blade and engage the high-tension setting. Compatibility is limited to standard 300mm (12-inch) hacksaw blades. For care, keep the chrome bow clean and dry to prevent corrosion. Periodically wipe the tensioning mechanism with a light machine oil to ensure the lever remains smooth and operational over years of use.
