Hacksaws

Use hacksaw hand saws when you need to cut metal pipe, plastic tubing, bolts, brackets or threaded bar. Unlike general-purpose hand saws used mainly for timber, hacksaws hold a narrow replaceable blade under tension. This helps you make controlled cuts through harder materials. They are useful sawing and cutting tools for plumbing, installation and repair work, whether you are building a trade or DIY hand tools kit.

Choose from options by brands such as Bahco, Minotaur and Irwin. For curved cuts in timber or plastic, explore coping saws. Choose bow saws for branches, logs and rough wood. Keep compatible spare saw blades nearby so a worn edge does not stop your work.
