The blade measures 184 inches in total length and 1-1\/4 inches in width, with a thickness of 0.042 inches. The tooth edge is ground to a straight form with a positive rake angle and raker tooth set, running at a variable pitch of 2-3 TPI. The Primalloy series construction pairs a flexible alloy back with high speed steel teeth, making this blade suited for metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and industrial cutting operations where demanding materials require consistent performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade fits vertical or horizontal band saws with a 184-inch wheel-to-wheel blade path. The 2-3 TPI variable pitch reduces harmonic vibration and is well matched to cutting solid bar stock, structural steel sections, stainless tubing, and exotic alloy billets. It is intended for professional use by machinists, fabricators, and industrial maintenance technicians working with ferrous and specialty metals. The raker tooth set promotes efficient chip clearance in these applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible alloy back for extended tooth life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch 2-3 TPI reduces blade vibration and harmonics during cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle and ground tooth form improve cutting efficiency on hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set promotes consistent chip evacuation in solid and structural stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight tooth form and flexible back support contour stability on long cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimalloy series rated for steel, stainless steel, and exotic steel material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a welded-loop replacement blade for band saws requiring a 184-inch blade path with a 1-1\/4-inch blade width.

Disconnect and lock out power to the band saw before removing or installing the blade. Verify wheel guides and blade tension settings are appropriate for a 1-1\/4-inch blade before starting the machine. Follow the saw manufacturer's tensioning specifications and confirm blade tracking before resuming cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 184 inches (15 feet 4 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3 (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: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Raker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flexible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Primalloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Exotic Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 inches x 20 inches x 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00096\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542040871218,"sku":"00096","price":289.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2af1b4bad89d0a3f8043f5ab4c4b5de5_e35f1a6d-22a3-458d-ad4d-ed2f95662b3a.jpg?v=1785890350","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-00096-welded-bandsaw-blade-2-3-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
