SOLUTION

The two main types of hacksaw teeth settings are Staggered set and wave set.

These settings refer to how the teeth are bent to create a wider kerf (the slot cut by the saw) than the blade itself.

• Staggered Set: Alternate teeth are bent to the left and right, creating a clear path for chips to exit.
• Wave Set: Teeth are bent in a wave-like pattern, also aiding in chip removal and preventing binding.
