Starrett 10473 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 10473 is a welded carbon steel bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for contour cutting in stationary bandsaw applications. It measures 93.5 inches in total length, 0.25 inches wide, and 0.025 inches thick, with a constant 4 TPI pitch. The skip tooth form paired with a raker tooth set promotes efficient chip clearance and consistent cutting performance across a range of materials. The flexible back type allows the blade to navigate tight contour radii without fatigue cracking. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general trade contractors familiar with bandsaw work will recognize this as a reliable shop blade for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous stock.

The STARRETT 10473 is suited for use on stationary bandsaws that accept a 93.5-inch blade. The 4 TPI skip tooth geometry is appropriate for general-purpose cutting of ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood. The straight rake angle supports positive feed control on both hard and soft materials. This blade is a practical option for metal fabrication shops, mechanical contracting shops, or any trade environment where a compact bandsaw handles daily stock-cutting tasks.

Key Features

• Carbon steel blade and tooth construction from the Duratec SFB series
• 4 TPI constant pitch with skip tooth form for efficient chip evacuation
• Raker tooth set for balanced cutting action on varied materials
• Flexible back type reduces blade fatigue during contour cuts
• Straight rake angle for controlled feed on ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood
• Welded construction for consistent blade tension and smooth tracking

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or stock blade for stationary bandsaws accepting a 93.5-inch blade loop with a 0.25-inch blade width.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with the specific saw model. Disconnect and lock out power to the bandsaw before removing the existing blade or installing a new one. Verify blade tension, tracking, and guide bearing clearance according to the saw manufacturer specifications before resuming cuts. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades.
