Starrett 10585 Welded Bandsaw Blade 9 Ft 10 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 10585 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for continuous-loop cutting in stationary bandsaw applications. Built from carbon steel with a flexible back, it measures 9 feet in length and 3/4 inch wide with a blade thickness of 0.032 inches. The 10 TPI constant-pitch, raker tooth set with a straight tooth form delivers consistent chip clearance and smooth cutting action across a range of materials. At 1.1 pounds, this blade is straightforward to mount and tension on compatible bandsaw machines. Fabricators, metalworkers, and woodworkers who need a reliable, factory-welded blade for production or shop cutting will find this a practical, direct-fit option.

The STARRETT 10585 is suited for both ferrous and non-ferrous metal cutting as well as plastic and plywood applications. The constant pitch design makes it most effective in uniform cross-section cuts where consistent feed pressure can be maintained. Typical installations include vertical or horizontal stationary bandsaws in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and trade workshops. The raker tooth set helps evacuate chips efficiently during metal cutting, reducing heat buildup and extending blade life under normal operating conditions.

Key Features

• Factory-welded loop — no field welding required, ready to install
• 10 TPI constant pitch for smooth, consistent cutting across multiple materials
• Raker tooth set with straight tooth form for efficient chip evacuation
• Flexible carbon steel back allows repeated flexing around bandsaw wheels without fatigue cracking
• Rated for ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood — broad material application range
• Duratec SFB series construction balances blade flexibility with cutting edge durability

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or spare welded bandsaw blade for stationary bandsaw machines that accept a 9-foot loop blade with 3/4-inch width. Verify your saw manufacturer's specified blade length, width, and thickness tolerances before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with the specific machine model. Disconnect and lock out all power to the bandsaw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Use appropriate blade-handling gloves — bandsaw blades present a laceration hazard during handling and tensioning. Follow the bandsaw manufacturer's tensioning and tracking specifications; do not over-tension, as this can reduce blade life and stress the machine's wheel bearings.
