Modern construction technologies assume the use of ultra-light and strong materials for the construction of residential houses and subsidiary business premises. Often in the quality of such a stable material, blocks of aerated concrete are used, which means that a special tool - a hacksaw will be needed for its processing.
Despite its apparent simplicity and external resemblance to an ordinary wood hacksaw , this tool has its own characteristics that a layman can not identify by eye. In order not to get into trouble when buying, you should study in detail all the details of the hacksaw on aerated concrete. You can buy it in specialized construction stores at an inexpensive price, as this tool is an expendable material.
The main difference of all hacksaws designed for cutting aerated concrete - their length, thickness of metal (cloth), the presence or absence of teeth of increased strength, as well as the convenience of the handle. Hacksaw on aerated concrete with winning tapes will last longer than similar, but from ordinary metal, although at a price they differ not so much. Some models provide for the replacement of the cutting part.
Hacksaw for aerated concrete "Zubr"
The most popular tool for processing foam and aerated concrete is the hacksaw of the Russian manufacturer, called "Zubr". This name unambiguously speaks about the power of a hand tool, because each of its teeth is a strong carbide tin, which extends the service life. After all, everyone knows that, despite its seeming lightness and fragility, aerated concrete has increased abrasiveness during sawing, and the teeth are very quickly stitched, if they do not have an increased strength, as in the case of Zubr.
In addition, the handle of the saw consists of two components - rubber and plastic, which gives it strength and at the same time convenient grip. Such a file will not slip out of hand at the wrong time, negating the traumatism at work.
Hacksaw for aerated concrete "Delta"
Another representative of the Russian tool industry, the hacksaw "Delta", which is somewhat inferior to "Zubr", but still has its admirers. Its advantage is the rounded edge, which improves the convenience of work, as well as the presence in the set of a special metal corner-ruler, with which you can easily cut off the necessary centimeters.
"Delta" has a tooth pitch of 16 mm with a web thickness of 1.3 mm, and a super-resistant three-layer coating, which makes it comfortable, reliable and indispensable for construction work.
