Running at 32 teeth per inch (TPI) with a constant pitch pattern, it delivers clean, controlled cuts through thin-walled tubing, conduit, small-diameter pipe, and sheet metal. The blade measures 0.5 inches wide and 0.025 inches thick with a flexible body that reduces blade breakage during off-angle strokes. Licensed tradespeople in plumbing, HVAC, and electrical work keep this blade on the truck for fast, accurate hand cuts where power tools are impractical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 40017 is suited for residential and light commercial service work where a hand hacksaw is the right tool for the job. Common applications include cutting copper tubing, EMT conduit, threaded rod, and small structural sections. The 32 TPI count makes it particularly effective on thin materials where a coarser blade would strip or snag teeth. It fits standard hand hacksaw frames that accept 12-inch blades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e32 TPI constant pitch pattern for clean cuts on thin-walled and small-diameter materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction provides durability for general trade cutting tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible blade body at 0.025 inches thick reduces breakage risk during hand sawing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5-inch blade width fits standard 12-inch hand hacksaw frames\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eToothed cutting edge requires no setup  -  mount and cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement blade for standard 12-inch hand hacksaw frames used in plumbing, HVAC, and electrical trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by any trade professional using a standard hand hacksaw frame. Mount the blade with teeth pointing away from the handle so cutting occurs on the forward stroke. Ensure the blade is tensioned firmly in the frame before use  -  a loose blade flexes excessively and breaks prematurely. No power or lockout procedures are required, but always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling or changing blades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Constant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Toothed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Flexibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flexible\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112802\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52082446041394,"sku":"40017","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e4c9f1e937151f2d7e80b017077e06e2.jpg?v=1790056794","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-40017-hacksaw-blade-32-tpi-12-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
