Hacksaw Blade Bahco 9574-300

The BAHCO 9574-300 hacksaw blade is engineered for precision metalworking and general-purpose cutting tasks. Constructed from high-quality hardened steel, the blade balances strength and edge retention while keeping a lightweight profile at approximately 170 g. Its tooth geometry and finish are optimized to deliver clean, consistent cuts across a range of materials, providing reliable performance for workshop and site use.

Advantages

The blade’s hardened steel construction offers improved wear resistance and longer service life compared with untreated blades. A balanced tooth design reduces vibration and facilitates straighter cuts, while the compact weight contributes to easier handling and reduced operator fatigue during prolonged use. Compatibility with standard hacksaw frames makes replacement straightforward and minimizes downtime.

Suitable for

• Cutting mild and alloy steels
• Trimming copper and brass components
• General workshop and maintenance cutting tasks
• DIY projects requiring controlled, accurate cuts

Key specifications

• Material: hardened high-quality steel for durability
• Weight: approximately 170 g for the blade
• Length and tooth pitch: designed for compatibility with standard hacksaw frames (blade length designed for 300 mm category tools)
• Finish: ground tooth edge for clean cutting action

How to use

Install the blade into a compatible hacksaw frame following the frame manufacturer’s mounting instructions, ensuring the teeth point away from the handle for cutting on the forward stroke or as preferred for the specific application. Secure the blade tension evenly to prevent flexing. When cutting, use steady, even strokes and avoid excessive side pressure to maintain a straight cut and extend blade life. For thicker sections, start with a light groove and increase pressure as the cut progresses.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Select a blade tooth pitch matched to the material thickness: finer teeth for thin materials and coarser teeth for thicker sections. Regularly inspect the blade for wear or damage and replace when cutting quality degrades. Store blades dry and protected from corrosive environments to maintain performance.
