DeWalt DHT020547 5-in-1 Hacksaw 300mm (12in)

Description

The DeWalt DHT020547 5-in-1 Hacksaw 300mm is a highly versatile cutting tool designed to adapt to a range of sawing applications with a single, robust frame. With a low-profile configuration for tight spaces, high blade tension capability and multiple blade positions, it offers excellent control and performance for both standard and specialist cutting tasks. Tool-free blade tensioning, on-board blade storage and the ability to convert into a jab saw or long-reach saw make this an ideal all-in-one solution for professional tradespeople and serious DIY users.

Performance and versatility

Engineered for flexibility, the DeWalt DHT020547 5-in-1 Hacksaw allows the blade to be set at either 45° or 90° for standard straight cuts and flush cutting against surfaces. The high-tension frame can securely hold the blade up to 150kg of tension, helping maintain a straight, accurate cut and reducing blade deflection under load. The low-profile configuration enables cutting in confined or awkward areas where a traditional full-frame hacksaw may struggle to access.

Multi-function 5-in-1 design

This hacksaw’s front handle can be detached and used as a pistol grip jab saw, allowing you to make controlled cuts in tight or overhead spaces using a standard hacksaw blade. You can also attach a blade to the front of the frame to create a long-reach saw, ideal for accessing difficult-to-reach pipes, fixings and sections. Combined with the standard hacksaw setup, flush-cut configuration and low-profile mode, these functions provide five practical cutting options from a single tool.

Comfort and control

Fitted with a comfortable non-slip main handle and a front grip, the DeWalt DHT020547 ensures positive handling and improved control during cutting. The ergonomic grip surfaces are designed to provide a secure hold, even in demanding conditions or when wearing gloves, helping to reduce fatigue during extended use. The balanced frame and dual-grip arrangement support steady, accurate cuts across a variety of materials.

Tool-free tensioning and blade storage

The 5-in-1 Hacksaw features a tool-free blade tensioning mechanism, allowing you to adjust tension quickly and easily without needing additional tools. This is particularly useful when switching between configurations or replacing blades on site. On-board blade storage adds further convenience, ensuring spare blades are always close to hand and reducing downtime caused by searching for replacements.

Applications and use cases

The DeWalt DHT020547 5-in-1 Hacksaw 300mm is ideal for cutting metal conduit, pipe, threaded rod, brackets, fixings and general metalwork, as well as plastics and other suitable materials. Its multi-position functionality makes it especially useful for plumbing, electrical work, HVAC installation, maintenance, site fit-out and refurbishment projects, where access constraints and varied cutting requirements are common.
