The blade measures 13 feet 3 inches in length and 1 inch in width with a thickness of 0.035 inches. Tooth material is M42 high speed steel, a cobalt-enhanced alloy that retains hardness under the heat generated by high-feed cutting. The variable-pitch 4-6 TPI configuration combined with the Duplex tooth form reduces harmonic vibration and chip loading, resulting in straighter cuts and longer blade life. This blade ships as a pre-welded loop, ready to mount without field welding or cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for production and maintenance cutting of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, structural shapes, tubing, and solid bar stock on horizontal and vertical band saw machines. The 1-inch width provides the lateral rigidity needed for straight, high-volume cuts on medium to large cross-sections. It is a standard replacement blade for industrial and shop band saws that accept a 13-foot 3-inch blade loop. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabrication shop personnel are the primary installers and users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction bonds M42 high speed steel teeth to a flexible alloy steel back for durability and fatigue resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 cobalt HSS tooth material maintains cutting edge hardness at elevated temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable-pitch 4-6 TPI pattern minimizes vibration and reduces tooth stripping on interrupted cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuplex tooth form improves chip evacuation and extends cut life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePre-welded 13 ft 3 in loop installs directly onto compatible band saw machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.035-inch blade thickness suits standard blade guides on industrial band saws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for band saw machines that accept a 13-foot 3-inch blade loop with a 1-inch blade width and 0.035-inch thickness. Verify machine blade length, width, and thickness specifications before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBand saw blade replacement should be performed by qualified machine operators or maintenance technicians familiar with the specific saw model. Power down and lock out the band saw per OSHA lockout\/tagout procedures before removing the worn blade or installing the new one. Use proper blade-handling gloves — the toothed edge presents a serious laceration hazard during handling and tensioning. Set blade tension and guide clearance according to the saw manufacturer's specifications after mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 feet 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-6 (variable pitch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42 High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Duplex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Toothed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242112\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 96190\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51735793828146,"sku":"96190","price":117.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4a3f8767d966712809e7fb20e7ec2b74.jpg?v=1788774198","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-96190-bi-metal-band-saw-blade-1-in-4-6-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
