Product Description
Milwaukee Compact Hack Saw
Model Number: 48-22-0012
The Milwaukee 48-22-0012 is the Compact Hack Saw — a professional manual hack saw with a reduced-profile compact frame for accessing and cutting metal fasteners, conduit, pipe, threaded rod, and hardware in confined spaces, tight cabinet interiors, and the access-restricted positions where standard full-size hack saw frames cannot fit or maneuver adequately. The compact frame dimensions allow the blade to enter tight spaces and complete cuts in positions where the standard hack saw's large frame contacts the surrounding cabinet, wall, floor, or equipment before the blade can reach the fastener or material being cut — making it the right tool for under-sink plumbing hardware removal, cutting inside electrical panels, trimming conduit in tight junctions, and the general confined-space metal cutting that service and repair work regularly presents. Milwaukee engineers the compact frame for the rigidity needed to transmit the manual cutting force to the blade without the flex that compact frames sometimes exhibit, maintaining consistent blade tension and straight-line cutting accuracy in the tight positions this saw is designed for.
The Milwaukee compact hack saw accepts standard hack saw blades for blade replacement and TPI selection to match the specific metal being cut — standard 18 TPI, 24 TPI, and 32 TPI blades fit the blade mounting for the correct tooth selection for conduit, pipe, heavy fasteners, and fine sheet metal. The ergonomic handle provides comfortable sustained cutting in the awkward body positions that confined-space hack sawing requires. Milwaukee builds the saw frame from materials appropriate for the rough handling and tool bag storage of active professional service and installation use throughout its service life.
