Starrett 40063 Power Hacksaw Blade 17in 10 Tpi Hss

Product Description

The STARRETT 40063 is a high speed steel power hacksaw blade designed for use in reciprocating power hacksaw machines. It measures 17 inches in length, 1-1/4 inches in width, and 0.062 inches in thickness, with a constant pitch pattern at 10 teeth per inch (TPI). The toothed edge geometry and HSS construction allow it to cut a wide range of metals, including mild steel, structural steel, and similar ferrous materials. Metalworking shops and maintenance technicians are the primary installers and users of this blade type.

This blade is suited for production and maintenance cutting operations on power hacksaw machines that accept 17-inch blades with a standard pinhole mounting configuration. The constant 10 TPI pitch makes it appropriate for cutting solid bar stock, pipe, and structural shapes in moderate to heavy cross-sections. It is sold individually and is a direct drop-in replacement format for machines requiring this blade length and width.

Key Features

• High speed steel (HSS) construction resists heat buildup during extended cutting cycles
• Constant pitch pattern at 10 TPI suited for moderate to heavy cross-section cuts
• 1-1/4 inch blade width provides rigidity and straight tracking in the cut
• 0.062 inch blade thickness balances flexibility with durability
• Toothed edge design with standard pinhole diameter of 0.335 inches for machine mounting

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement blade for power hacksaw machines that accept 17-inch blades measuring 1-1/4 inches wide with a pinhole diameter of 0.335 inches.

Installation Notes

Power hacksaw blades are installed and serviced by machinists and maintenance technicians. Before replacing a blade, power down the machine and allow all moving components to come to a complete stop. Ensure blade tension is set according to the machine manufacturer's specifications after installation. Inspect the pinhole seating and blade guides for wear before running the machine.
