RED SEAL EXAM QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
What is the correct direction for a hacksaw blade? - Answer -Install the hacksaw blade
so the teeth face forward. The saws are designed so the blade will cut when it's pushed
(the forward stroke)
hacksaw blade for cutting different materials. - Answer -For heavy-duty cutting jobs like
a steel reinforcing rod or pipe, a lower TPI would provide a coarser and quicker cut. An
18-teeth per inch.
For a job that requires medium-duty cutting, like a thin wall electrical conduit, a 24-teeth
per inch
When cutting light metals like aluminum, a higher TPI would provide a smoother cut. A
32-teeth per inch blade
