Charnwood SSBPE15 Scroll Saw Blade, Pin End, 15tpi, Pack of 12

Pin ended scroll saw blade. Pin ended blades are the easiest and quickest to fit to the scroll saw. The pin fits into slotted hangers on each end, blades can be changed without the need for any tools.

Many people find this type of blade the most convenient to use. The only disadvantage is that when making a pierced cut a minimum hole diameter of 7mm must be drilled to allow the pin to pass through.

Regular tooth blades have teeth evenly spaced along the blade. Where one tooth stops, another tooth starts. They produce the smoothest finish to the cut surface.

Tip: Blades break because they heat up, lose their temper, and become fragile. Friction created during the cutting process heats blades, so lubricate the blade by applying a little beeswax to it or by covering the blanks with tape (the lubricant that keeps the tape from sticking to itself will also lubricate the blade).

Dull blades also cause friction. All cutting dulls the blade, but cutting dense wood accelerates the process. The easiest ways to tell that the blade is getting dull are that you need to push harder for the blade to cut or you notice that the saw is cutting more slowly. This is a gradual process, so you may not realize the blade is dull until it breaks. If you do notice slowing or difficulty pushing, replace the blade. It is normal to use several blades per project; large projects or those made from thick or dense wood will require even more blades.
