Proforce 12 Inch Hacksaw Frame with Blade 300mm
£5.90£7.08 EX VATINC VAT
A solid 300mm steel hacksaw frame with wing-nut blade tensioner and ergonomic handle, supplied ready to use with a blade. A decent, no-nonsense tool for everyday cutting jobs on site or in the workshop.
The Proforce 12 inch hacksaw frame is a straightforward, ready-to-use cutting tool built for everyday trade and workshop use. It comes supplied with a 12 inch hacksaw blade already included, so there is no hunting around for a blade before you can get started. The steel frame gives it enough rigidity for clean, controlled cuts through metal pipe, conduit, bolts, and general metalwork without the frame flexing under pressure.
The wing-nut blade tensioner is one of those features that sounds minor until you have spent five minutes fighting a stiff blade-change mechanism on a cold morning. On this frame, you can tighten or swap the blade with your fingers, quickly and without needing a separate tool. Blade tension makes a real difference to cut quality, a slack blade wanders, so having a tensioner you can actually adjust properly is worth more than it might seem at first.
The ergonomic handle is shaped to reduce hand fatigue during longer cuts. If you are cutting steel bar or multiple lengths of conduit in a session, the handle grip matters. The Proforce frame gives a comfortable, secure hold without any unnecessary bulk.
Where the Proforce 12 Inch Hacksaw Gets Used
This is a general-purpose tool that earns its place in a plumber’s bag, an electrician’s van, or a general contractor’s kit. The 300mm frame size is the standard most tradespeople reach for because it accepts the most widely available blade sizes and handles the majority of cutting jobs without any fuss.
Plumbers use a hacksaw frame like this for cutting copper and plastic pipe, steel conduit, threaded rod, and bolts. Electricians reach for it when cropping trunking, cutting metal cable tray, or trimming back fixings. On a building site, it is the kind of tool that gets passed around because it is simple to use and reliable enough that nobody minds lending it out. At this price, you can keep one in the van and one in the workshop without any great financial pain.
Supplied Ready to Work
The Proforce hacksaw frame comes in a display pack with a blade fitted, which means it is shelf-ready for trade counters and retail as well as being convenient for the end user. You are not buying a frame and then realising the blade is a separate order. Pick it up, tension the blade, and start cutting. The display pack also makes it easy to store on a peg board or hang in the van.
For tradespeople who go through hacksaw blades regularly, the Proforce 12 inch hacksaw frame accepts standard universal blades, so replacements are easy to source. Keep a few spare blades on hand and this frame will see a long working life without needing any replacement parts beyond the blades themselves.
Pro Tip: Always unwind a few turns on the wing-nut before fitting a new blade so the frame sits at a natural width, then tension up once the blade pins are seated properly, this keeps the blade square and reduces the chance of it snapping mid-cut.
