Starrett 40100 Bi-metal Power Hacksaw Blade 14in 14 Tpi

Product Description

The STARRETT 40100 is a bi-metal power hacksaw blade engineered for use in stationary power hacksaw machines. It measures 14 inches in length, 1-1/8 inches wide, and 0.05 inches thick, with a 14 TPI constant-pitch tooth pattern along one toothed edge. The bi-metal construction bonds a high-speed steel tooth edge to a flexible alloy steel backing, giving the blade durability under the repetitive stress of powered cutting cycles. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians use this blade for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous metals, structural shapes, and pipe stock in shop and industrial settings.

This blade is suited for use in stationary power hacksaw applications found in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and industrial maintenance environments. The constant-pitch pattern at 14 TPI is appropriate for cutting medium-wall tubing, solid bar stock, and structural steel sections. The 0.2810-inch pinhole diameter fits the standard pin-drive tension system common to most power hacksaw frames in this blade-length class. Sold individually.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement blade for stationary power hacksaw machines accepting 14-inch bi-metal blades with a 0.2810-inch pinhole diameter and 1-1/8-inch blade width.

Installation Notes

Power hacksaw blades are installed and serviced by machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with stationary cutting equipment. Before replacing the blade, disconnect or lock out power to the machine per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Ensure the blade is tensioned to the machine manufacturer's specification using the frame's built-in tensioning mechanism, and confirm the pin holes are fully seated on the drive pins before operation. Inspect blade guides and blade clamps for wear before reinstalling a new blade.
