Starrett 00070 Welded Bandsaw Blade 6 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 00070 is a welded carbon steel bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for contour cutting in metalworking and fabrication environments. Measuring 21 feet 6 inches in length, 1 inch wide, and 0.035 inches thick, it delivers consistent performance across a range of materials. The blade runs at 6 teeth per inch with a constant pitch and raker tooth set, producing controlled chip evacuation and steady cutting action. A flexible back type reduces fatigue cracking during operation. Licensed HVAC technicians, machinists, fabricators, and trade shop professionals are the typical end users for this blade.

The STARRETT 00070 is suited for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood on bandsaw equipment that accepts a 21-foot 6-inch welded blade. The straight tooth form and raker set make it practical for general-purpose contour cutting in production and maintenance shop settings. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both light fabrication work and repetitive cutting tasks where a carbon steel blade meets the material and speed requirements of the application.

Key Features

• Duratec SFB series carbon steel construction for both blade body and tooth material
• 6 TPI constant pitch for steady, predictable cut rates across compatible materials
• Raker tooth set promotes efficient chip clearance and reduces blade loading
• Flexible back type resists fatigue cracking during continuous bandsaw operation
• Contour cutting capable — handles curves and irregular profiles
• Compatible material applications include ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood

Compatibility

Designed for bandsaw equipment accepting a welded blade measuring 21 feet 6 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.035 inches in thickness. Suitable for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood as stated by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the bandsaw manufacturer's tensioning and tracking procedures. Disconnect and lock out power to the bandsaw before handling or mounting the blade. Wear cut-resistant gloves when uncoiling or positioning the blade. Verify blade tension, tracking alignment, and guide bearing clearance before returning the machine to service.
