DESCRIPTION

BS 3159-1:1999


This standard BS 3159-1:1999 Woodworking saws for hand use is classified in these ICS categories:
  • 79.120.20 Woodworking tools

This British Standard classifies types, and specifies certain dimensional aspects, of taper-ground and flat-ground hand saws for cutting timber. The hardness level and finish of the saw blades is specified and tests are included to verify the qualities of the complete saw.

Four classes of hand saw are specified, and in each class, saws from 450 mm to 660 mm in length are available.

This part of BS 3159 distinguishes between saws intended for ripping and those for cross cutting.
