Copper and aluminum are soft metals. The blade is going to last a long time. Stainless steel and harden metals not as long. I use mine on all sorts of different materials and I get at least a year out of each blade. **Q: Starrett green stripe vs Starrett red stripe blades? What is the difference?** A: I had no clue, so I googled it & this is what I found. Greenstripe® These hardened-milled tooth blades are shatter resistant and are the best blade for interrupted cuts or when the blade is subject to excessive stresses. Redstripe® Constructed of uniformly hardened high speed steel, these blades maintain their cutting edge on the most difficult to cut materials, held securely. Bluestripe® These precision ground tooth blades have a patented solid-state diffusion process which produces the industry's most advanced bi-metal hand hacksaw. **Q: How well would this cut an aluminum hand guard on a paintball marker?** A: I've cut through steel with these blades. As long as the metal on the hand guard is not thinner than 1/32", and the correct technique is used, there should be no problem. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Blades... *by M***Z on April 8, 2026* Perfect fit in 2 hacksaws and does the job as it should. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ saw blades *by E***N on February 28, 2026* good lasting blade. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing blades! Holding up well! *by J***N on September 11, 2017* I've been using these to cut 1/8" 6061 aluminum. Going through it very well, leaves a nice finish when done. Haven't had to replace the blade yet after several cuts. Probably best to lubricate with some WD-40 or equivalent (WD-40 is not a lubricant in itself...but for quick jobs, it will provide temporary 'lube' qualities and help keep the metal from gumming up in the teeth of the blade. Other people use bees wax blocks and so on...research the best for you). Any 12" hacksaw will fit these blades, but pictured is STANLEY Hacksaw w/Mini Hacksaw - Countertop Model 20-036M which I got from one of the bigger hardware stores. I don't wholly recommend it and you can read my review for it there if you want. If you're going to buy a hacksaw with a blade storage area, there are better options. ## Frequently Bought Together - Starrett Bi-Metal Unique HSS Safe-Flex Hand Hacksaw Blade - Ideal for Contractors and Tradesmen - 12" Length, 1/2" Width, 0.024" Thickness, 32 TPI - 2-Pack - KBS1232-2 - LENOX Tools High-Tension Hacksaw, 12-inch (12132HT50), Blue - LENOX Tools Hacksaw Blade, 12-inch, 32 TPI, 2-Pack (20162T232HE) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/764258-starrett-bi-metal-unique-hss-safe-flex-hand-hacksaw-blade](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/764258-starrett-bi-metal-unique-hss-safe-flex-hand-hacksaw-blade) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
