Product Description
The Perma-Grit 152mm rodsaw is sized to fit a junior hacksaw frame and is perfect for following complex shapes when cutting carbon fibre and composites.
The rodsaw is made from tungsten carbide welded to a mild steel rod, making them almost unbreakable and able to cleanly and quickly cut carbon fibre and other composites without 'fraying' or crazing the material being cut.
Suggested uses
Perma-Grit rodsaw blades are the perfect choice for the hand cutting intricate shapes in carbon fibre, fibreglass and all other composites. Use a rodsaw for:
- Cutting out recesses in scoops
- Cutting holes for dials and switches in dash panels
- Cutting holes for speakers in I.C.E. installs
If you are cutting simpler shapes (like gentle curves or straight lines) we would suggest the use of a 305mm hacksaw blade.
How to use
Use the rodsaw blade in a conventional manner, fitted to a 'junior' sized hacksaw frame (sold at any hardware store or tool shop).
Smooth cut edges using a Perma-Grit file or sanding block. For very intricate shapes such as holes for switches, use a Perma-Grit needle file (all available from Carbon Mods) before finishing with rubbing compound and wax.
