Starrett 40047 Power Hacksaw Blade 14 Tpi 12 in Hss

Product Description

The STARRETT 40047 is a high speed steel power hacksaw blade designed for use in reciprocating power hacksaw machines found in metal fabrication shops, machine shops, and industrial maintenance settings. The blade measures 12 inches in length and 1 inch in width, with a thickness of 0.05 inches and a constant-pitch tooth pattern at 14 teeth per inch (TPI). High speed steel construction provides the hardness and heat resistance needed to cut ferrous metals, structural steel, and similar materials under continuous power-driven operation. This blade is sold individually and is a direct-use consumable for production and maintenance cutting tasks.

The 40047 is suited for power hacksaw applications in industrial and trade environments where straight, consistent cuts through metal stock are required. Typical installations include structural steel fabrication, pipe fitting shops, and general metalworking facilities. The 14 TPI constant-pitch configuration is well matched to cutting medium-section steel and similar solid or hollow metal stock. The toothed edge and standard pinhole mounting diameter of 0.335 inches allow this blade to seat correctly in compatible power hacksaw frames.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or maintenance technician. Power down and lockout the hacksaw machine before removing the old blade or installing a new one, following LOTO procedures. Ensure the blade is seated firmly at both pin mounts and tensioned according to the machine manufacturer's guidelines. Handle blades with gloves, as tooth edges present a laceration hazard during installation.
