FAQs

What materials can these blades cut?

These blades are designed for cutting metal and PVC.

How do I install the blade?

Insert the blade with the teeth pointing forward and tighten the blade securely in your junior hacksaw frame.

How long do the blades last?

The lifespan of the blade depends on the materials being cut and the frequency of use. Blades will dull over time. Replace when cutting becomes difficult.

Can I use these blades on wood?

While the blades can technically cut wood, they are optimized for metal and PVC. For wood, use a blade specifically designed for that material.

What does Tpi mean?

Tpi stands for Teeth Per Inch, which refers to the number of teeth on the blade per inch of length. The 32 Tpi on this blade means there are 32 teeth per inch.

How do I store the blades?

Store the blades in a dry place to prevent rust and keep them away from moisture and direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Blade breaks during cutting.

Check blade tension; increase if loose, or decrease if the blade is over-tightened. Ensure the blade is appropriate for the material being cut.

Blade is not cutting effectively.

Check if the teeth are damaged or dull; replace the blade. Ensure that you are applying the right amount of pressure and using a proper cutting angle. Check the material for suitability.

Blade won't fit into the hacksaw.

Make sure you have a junior hacksaw. Check blade ends for correct pin placement within the frame.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
