Bahco 3940-300-14-HST-2P Bi-Metal Hacksaw Blade 300mm 14TPI

The Bahco 3940-300-14-HST-2P is a high-performance bi-metal hacksaw blade engineered for demanding metal cutting tasks. Measuring 300 mm in length with 14 TPI, this blade is part of the heavy standard series, specifically designed to handle thick metal materials with ease and precision. The construction utilizes HSS toothing with 8% cobalt bonded to a spring steel back, ensuring the blade remains virtually unbreakable while providing exceptional wear resistance during intensive industrial use.

Advantages

This blade offers superior rigidity due to its wider body design, which significantly reduces the risk of fracturing or bending during operation. The precision-ground teeth allow for fast and aggressive cutting performance, while the inclusion of cobalt in the tooth material extends the lifespan of the blade even when working with tough alloys. Its robust construction ensures that users can achieve straighter, more accurate cuts compared to standard thinner blades, making it a reliable choice for professional environments.

Suitable for

• Cutting thick metal sections
• Demanding industrial metalworking tasks
• Applications requiring straight and precise cuts
• Heavy-duty maintenance and repair work

This blade may not be suitable for cutting very thin sheet metal or delicate materials where a finer tooth pitch is required to prevent snagging. Additionally, it is not intended for use on non-metallic materials such as wood or masonry, as the tooth geometry is specifically optimized for metal alloys.

Key specifications

• Length: 300 mm
• Teeth per inch: 14 TPI
• Material: Bi-metal with 8% Cobalt HSS toothing
• Blade type: Heavy Standard (HST)
• Quantity: 2 pieces per pack
• Weight: 112 g

To use the blade, ensure it is correctly tensioned in a compatible 300 mm hacksaw frame. Begin the cut with a light, steady stroke to establish a groove before applying more pressure. Maintain a consistent cutting speed and allow the teeth to do the work, avoiding excessive force that could cause the blade to overheat or bind in the material.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your hacksaw frame is compatible with 300 mm blades
• Ensure the 14 TPI count is appropriate for the thickness of the metal you intend to cut
• Consider the material hardness, as this blade is optimized for heavy-duty metal applications

Usage recommendations: For optimal performance and longevity, use a cutting lubricant when working with hard metals. Always ensure the blade is securely tightened in the frame before starting, and replace the blade immediately if you notice a decrease in cutting efficiency or tooth damage.
