MPN 100014

Barcode 5024763040979

Overview:

The High Tension 12 inch Aluminium Low Profile Hacksaw (300mm) is built for controlled, accurate cutting where a standard hacksaw can feel bulky. Its cast aluminium, I-shape frame supports higher blade tension to reduce flex and help keep cuts straight through metal and other materials (with the correct blade). The low profile frame is ideal for reaching confined areas, while the rubberised soft-grip handle improves comfort and control during repetitive cutting. Please note: the handle colour may vary (yellow or blue).

High Tension 12 inch Hacksaw – Key FAQs

• What materials can this hacksaw cut?
  It’s primarily for metal cutting, but it can also cut plastic and wood when you fit a blade designed for those materials and tooth patterns.

• Does it take standard hacksaw blades?
  Yes, it uses widely available 300mm (12 inch) hacksaw blades, making replacements simple to source and quick to fit.

• Can the blade be set at different angles?
  Yes, the frame supports multiple blade positions so you can change the blade angle to suit awkward cuts and restricted access areas.

• How does high tension improve cutting?
  Higher blade tension reduces flex and wandering, helping you keep the cut straighter and more accurate, especially on tougher materials.

• How should I look after the hacksaw?
  Keep it clean and dry, replace blades when they dull, and occasionally check the tension mechanism for smooth operation. A light oil on moving parts can help.
