Bsc Preferred 262GB222 Hacksaw Blade 12 in Hss 2 Pack

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED 262GB222 is a 12-inch hacksaw blade engineered for extended cutting life in demanding trade applications. Built with a high speed steel cutting edge bonded to a carbon steel back, this blade is rated to last five times longer than standard replacement blades. The shatterproof construction reduces the risk of blade breakage during use, making it a practical choice for plumbers, electricians, pipefitters, and general mechanical contractors who cut frequently. Each card contains two blades, providing a ready backup without an additional order.

This hacksaw blade is suited for use in residential and commercial trade environments where hand-cutting of metal pipe, conduit, threaded rod, or structural stock is required. The 12-inch length fits standard full-size hacksaw frames common in most trade toolkits. The high speed steel edge handles ferrous and non-ferrous metals typically encountered in plumbing, electrical, and HVAC rough-in work.

Installation Notes

Hacksaw blades should be installed by securing both pin ends firmly in the frame and tensioning the blade until it does not flex laterally during the cut. Always point teeth in the forward cutting direction before tensioning. Worn or cracked blades should be replaced before use to prevent breakage under load. Wear appropriate eye and hand protection when changing blades or cutting metal stock.
