Workshop Practice for Fitter Trainees

A typical first job is to mark a line on mild steel flat with a Scriber held against an Engineers Square. The work is then gripped low in the Bench Vice, so the cut sits close to the jaws. Students fit the blade with the teeth pointing forward and saw with long, steady strokes, pressing only on the push.

After sawing just outside the line, they file the face back to it with a Flat File and check it for square. Worn or broken blades are replaced with Hack Saw Blades of the same length.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which way should the teeth face?
Forward, pointing away from the handle. A hand hacksaw cuts on the push stroke, so press on the way forward and ease off on the way back to save the teeth.

How tight should the blade be?
Tension the blade until it feels firm and does not twist or bow when you push. A slack blade wanders off the line and snaps easily, while a badly overtightened one can tear at the pin holes.

What blade length does it take?
It is a 12 in frame and comes with a 300 mm blade, the usual length for workshop hacksaws. Replacement blades of the same length fit the frame.

Which tooth pitch should I use?
Pick a pitch that keeps at least three teeth on the work. Coarser blades suit thick mild steel and soft metals, and finer blades suit thin sheet, tube and harder steel.

How do I start a cut cleanly?
Make a small notch on the line with the corner of a file, then start with short, light strokes at a shallow angle. Once the cut is established, lengthen the strokes to use the full blade.
