Product Information
Full details
The Eclipse 24TPI Coping Saw Blades are designed for woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts who demand precision and control when cutting curves or intricate shapes in timber. These blades provide an exceptional balance of fine-finish cutting and longevity, though users should note that the 24TPI (teeth per inch) configuration is optimized specifically for finer wood projects rather than aggressive material removal or heavy-duty ripping.

FAQs
What is the length of these blades?
These blades are 6.5 inches (165mm) long.
Can I use these for metal cutting?
No, these are designed specifically for wood. Using them on metal will dull the teeth almost instantly.
What does 24TPI mean?
TPI stands for Teeth Per Inch. 24TPI means there are 24 teeth in every inch of the blade, providing a finer, smoother cut.
Will these fit a standard coping saw?
Yes, these are designed to fit standard coping saw frames that accept 6.5-inch pinned blades.
How do I know when to replace the blade?
Replace the blade when you notice the saw requires more effort to push through the wood or if the cut quality becomes rougher.
Troubleshooting
Blade wandering or drifting during a cut
Reduce forward pressure and ensure the blade is under proper tension within the frame.
Teeth clogging quickly with wood dust
Back the saw out of the cut periodically to clear the gullets, or brush the blade with a nylon wire brush.
Blade snapping frequently
Ensure the frame is not over-tensioned and that the blade is kept perfectly vertical during the cut to avoid side-loading.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Delivers a very clean, smooth finish on wood
- High-quality spring steel offers excellent resistance to snapping
- Standardized 6.5-inch length ensures compatibility with most frames
- Economical bulk pack size
Cons
- Not suitable for thick or very hard materials
- High TPI results in slower cutting speeds compared to 15TPI or 18TPI blades
- Thin profile requires a steady hand to prevent blade wandering
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these blades, ensure your coping saw frame is slightly compressed before locking the pins into the blade holders. Once locked, release the tension mechanism to pull the blade taut. For best results, keep the blade clean of resin buildup by occasionally wiping the teeth with a light machine oil or a stiff brush. Store the remaining blades in a dry environment to prevent rust, keeping them flat to ensure they do not kink, as any slight bend in a fine-tooth blade can lead to uneven cutting performance.
