Starrett 10461 Welded Bandsaw Blade 18 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 10461 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for contour cutting applications in metal fabrication and light industrial work. The blade measures 93 inches in length and 0.5 inches in width, with a blade thickness of 0.025 inches. At 18 teeth per inch with a constant pitch and wavy tooth set, it delivers smooth, controlled cuts in thin-section materials. The straight tooth form and flexible back make it well-suited for tight-radius contour work. Installation is straightforward for any shop technician familiar with bandsaw blade changes.

The 10461 is built from carbon steel throughout, covering both the blade body and tooth material. It is rated for cutting ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, plastic, and plywood, making it a versatile option across general fabrication, HVAC sheet metal, plumbing fitting shops, and light manufacturing environments. The wavy tooth set is particularly effective when cutting thin-wall tubing or stacked material where a raker set would catch. This blade ships as a single unit at 0.6 pounds and is ready to install out of the package.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade replacement should be performed by a qualified technician with the machine fully powered down and locked out per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the uncoiled blade. Verify blade tension and guide bearing alignment after installation before running the saw under load. Do not exceed the blade speed rating of your specific bandsaw model.
