Starrett 10015 Band Saw Blade Coil Stock 18 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 10015 is a band saw blade coil stock designed for continuous-length cutting applications in metalworking, fabrication, and general shop environments. The coil is 100 feet long and 0.25 inches wide, with a blade thickness of 0.025 inches, making it well-suited for cutting curves and contours on band saws that accept narrow-width blades. The carbon steel construction provides reliable performance across a range of common cutting tasks. At 18 teeth per inch with a wavy tooth set and straight rake angle, the blade delivers controlled chip removal and smooth cuts in thinner materials. A flexible back reduces blade fatigue and extends service life during contour and radius cutting work.

This coil stock is intended for use in industrial, maintenance, and production shop settings where custom blade lengths are cut and welded to fit specific band saw wheel diameters. It is appropriate for contour cutting applications on metal, plastics, and similar materials. Purchasing coil stock allows technicians and shop personnel to produce multiple blades from a single coil, reducing per-blade cost compared to pre-welded options. Constant pitch spacing keeps the cut consistent throughout the length of the blade. This product is suited for light-to-medium duty band saw work requiring a narrow blade profile.

Key Features

• Carbon steel blade material rated for general-purpose cutting applications
• 18 teeth per inch with constant pitch for consistent, controlled cuts
• Wavy tooth set reduces blade chatter and improves finish on thin materials
• Flexible back construction minimizes fatigue cracking during contour cutting
• 0.25 inches wide by 0.025 inches thick for use on band saws accepting narrow blades
• 100-foot coil allows shop-cut lengths for multiple custom-welded blades

Compatibility

Designed as a coil-stock replacement or supply for band saws accepting 0.25 inch wide blades. Blades are cut to length and butt-welded or lap-welded to match specific wheel-center-to-center dimensions on compatible machines.

Installation Notes

Blade coil stock must be cut to the correct length and welded using a blade welder before installation on a band saw. De-energize and lock out the band saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Tension the welded blade to the saw manufacturer's specification for the blade width. Blade welding and installation should be performed by qualified shop personnel familiar with band saw blade handling procedures.
