Starrett 10038 Band Saw Blade Coil 3/4 in 100 Ft 10 Tpi

Product Description

The STARRETT 10038 is a carbon steel band saw blade coil stock designed for continuous cutting operations in fabrication, metalworking, and general shop environments. The coil measures 100 feet in length with a 3/4-inch blade width and 0.032-inch blade thickness, giving technicians and shop professionals enough material to cut and weld multiple custom-length blades from a single stock spool. The blade features a 10 teeth-per-inch (TPI) constant pitch and a raker tooth set, making it well suited for straight and contour cuts through a range of materials. A flexible back construction reduces blade fatigue and extends service life under continuous use.

This coil stock is intended for use in horizontal and vertical band saw machines found in metal fabrication shops, HVAC duct shops, plumbing supply houses, and general-purpose workshops. The 3/4-inch width handles both straight cuts and moderate contour work. The 10 TPI rating is appropriate for cutting medium-thickness stock materials where a balance of cut speed and finish quality is needed. Installers and shop technicians who weld their own blades will find the 100-foot coil length practical for producing multiple blades without frequent reordering.

Key Features

• Carbon steel blade material for reliable cutting performance on a wide range of stock materials
• 10 TPI constant pitch for balanced cut speed and surface finish
• Raker tooth set for efficient chip clearance during continuous cuts
• Flexible back construction reduces stress cracking and extends blade life
• 3/4-inch blade width supports both straight and contour cutting applications
• 100-foot coil length provides material for multiple custom-welded blades

Compatibility

Designed as a coil stock replacement for band saw machines that accept 3/4-inch wide blades with a 0.032-inch blade thickness; verify blade width and thickness specifications against your saw manufacturer guidelines before cutting and welding to length.

Installation Notes

Cutting and welding coil stock to length is typically performed by a qualified shop technician using a blade welder and blade grinder. Power down the band saw and relieve any blade tension before removing the existing blade and installing a new one. Ensure the welded joint is properly annealed and ground flush before operation to prevent premature blade breakage. Follow the band saw manufacturer guidelines for blade tracking, tension, and guide bearing adjustment after installation.
