What This Machine Does
The G7016 is a reciprocating hack saw machine for cutting bar stock, tube and section to length before it goes to the lathe or the welding bench. A bow carrying a 350x25x1.25mm blade strokes across the work while the vice holds it square, so cuts come off at a repeatable length and a square face rather than the ragged end an angle grinder leaves. Cutting capacity is 160mm round and 160x160mm square, which covers most of the bar sizes a general jobbing shop buys in. Three speed levels let the operator match stroke rate to the material, so mild steel, alloy steel and non-ferrous bar each get a rate that suits them instead of one compromise setting. Drive is through a V-shaped transmission belt, which keeps the machine no louder than 74 db and takes the shock out of the stroke. The main electrical components sit inside the body, so there is no exposed wiring on the shop floor and the machine cleans down easily.
Why Buyers Choose This Machine
- Cuts bar and section to a square face so the next operation starts from a true end instead of a ground one
- Three speed levels let the operator match stroke rate to the material being cut
- 160mm round and 160x160mm square capacity covers the common stock sizes a jobbing shop holds
- V-belt drive keeps working noise no louder than 74 db which matters in an enclosed workshop
- Electrical components enclosed inside the body so nothing is exposed to swarf and coolant
- Blade cost per cut is low compared with abrasive cutting discs on the same stock
Where G7016 Metal Cutting Hack Saw Machine Earns Its Place
Problems It Solves
- Abrasive disc cutting leaves burnt out-of-square ends that have to be faced off again
- Hand sawing bar to length is slow and ties up a fitter for work a machine can do unattended
- A single fixed cutting speed forces a compromise across mild steel alloy and non-ferrous bar
- Exposed electrical gear on shop-floor machines collects swarf and becomes a safety issue
- Loud cutting equipment is hard to run in a small enclosed workshop
Who It Is For
- General machine shops that buy bar stock in mill lengths and cut it down in house
- Fabrication and welding shops needing square cut ends on section and tube
- Maintenance departments in plants that make their own replacement parts
- Machinery distributors supplying entry-level sawing equipment to small workshops
Application Scenarios
- Cutting round and square bar to length before turning or milling
- Sizing structural section and tube for fabrication and welding work
- Breaking down mill lengths of stock into workable billets in a stores area
- Cutting stock in a maintenance workshop where one machine has to handle mixed material
- Preparing test pieces and sample cuts from incoming bar

How It Is Built and What Can Be Changed
Operations Performed
- Sawing
- Cutting to length
- Bar and section cut-off
Quality Control
- Bow alignment and vice squareness checked so the cut face comes off perpendicular to the bar
- Blade tension and stroke travel verified through a full cycle before packing
- All three speed levels run and confirmed under load
- Noise level checked during the test cut
- Electrical enclosure and earthing inspected before shipment
Customisation Options
- Supply voltage phase and frequency set for your market
- Blade specification chosen for the material and section you cut most
- Coolant arrangement specified with the machine where you are cutting alloy steel
- Operating manual and machine markings prepared in your working language
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| Abrasive cut-off saw | An abrasive saw is faster to set up but burns the cut face and consumes discs; the G7016 gives a clean square end and cuts consumable cost per part |
|---|---|
| XAIMC band sawing machines such as the G4250 | A band saw cuts faster with a narrower kerf on larger stock; the G7016 is the simpler and cheaper machine where your stock sits within 160mm |
| Automatic power hacksaw G7025 | G7025 adds automatic operation for repeat cutting; the G7016 suits a shop cutting mixed one-off lengths |
Running the Machine
Step 1
Clamp the bar in the vice with enough support behind the cut for long stock
Step 2
Set the stop for the length you want if you are cutting a repeat batch
Step 3
Select the speed level that suits the material and section size
Step 4
Check blade tension before starting the stroke
Step 5
Lower the bow onto the work gently so the blade does not snatch on the first strokes
Step 6
Let the machine run the cut out and clear swarf from the vice between pieces
Step 7
Replace the blade as soon as cutting time per piece starts to lengthen

Questions About G7016 Metal Cutting Hack Saw Machine
What is the largest bar this machine will cut?
160mm round or 160x160mm square. If your stock is larger than that we would point you at a band sawing machine instead. Send us the biggest section you cut and we will confirm the right model.
What blade does it take?
350x25x1.25mm hack saw blades. Tell us the material you mainly cut and we will recommend the tooth pitch and supply spare blades with the machine.
Can it be supplied for our supply voltage?
Yes. Confirm your voltage phase and frequency when you enquire and the machine is built for it.
How noisy is it?
Working noise is no louder than 74 db. The V-shaped transmission belt drive is what keeps it down, which matters if the saw sits in an enclosed workshop.
What is the lead time and how is it packed?
Lead time depends on the model and quantity on order at the time, so ask us for a current date with your enquiry. Machines ship crated for sea freight on FOB CFR or CIF terms.
What are your payment terms?
30 percent by T/T on order with the balance of 70 percent before shipment, or an irrevocable L/C at sight.
Can we get spare parts later?
Yes. Quote the model G7016 and the part you need. Keep a set of spare blades on the shelf as those are the item you will use most.
