Choosing the TPI

| TPI | Material thickness | Typical materials |
|---|---|---|
| 18 TPI | 6-25 mm | pipe, angle iron and steel bar |
| 24 TPI | 3-6 mm | conduit, heavy sheet metal and tubing |
| 32 TPI | up to 3 mm | thin sheet metal and metal trim |
Choosing the blade grade
Each grade is colour coded for easy identification.
| Grade | Colour | Designed for |
|---|---|---|
| Bi-Metal HSS | Orange | Shatterproof blade with superior cutting power and flexibility |
| All Hard HSS | Blue | Highly accurate cutting and high wear resistance |
| Flexible HSS | Red | General purpose blade with flexibility and safety |
| Bi-Metal Cobalt | Purple | Tough materials such as stainless steel |
Using the blade
- Choose the TPI by the material thickness, so at least 3 teeth are in contact with the work at all times.
- Fit the blade with the teeth pointing away from the handle, so it cuts on the forward stroke, and tension the frame firmly.
- Use long, steady strokes and light pressure on the forward stroke. Use cutting fluid when working stainless steel.
- Support the work close to the cut so it does not vibrate or pinch the blade.
