Starrett 10755 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 10755 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for continuous-loop installation on stationary band saws used in metal fabrication, woodworking, and plastics cutting. The blade measures 11 feet 9 inches in length and 0.5 inches in width, with a 0.025-inch blade thickness and a constant 4 TPI pitch. It features a skip tooth form with a raker set and straight rake angle, a configuration that clears chips efficiently and reduces heat buildup during cuts. Both the blade body and tooth material are carbon steel, and the flexible back type allows the blade to track smoothly around band saw wheels without fatigue cracking under normal operating conditions. This blade is typically installed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, or skilled tradeworkers operating industrial or shop-grade band saws.

The 10755 is suited for contour cutting operations across a range of materials including ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood. The 4 TPI constant pitch makes it a practical general-purpose selection for medium-thickness stock where a balance of cut speed and surface finish is needed. The skip tooth form is especially effective in softer materials and plastics where gullet clearance is critical to prevent blade loading. Shops running variable material types without frequent blade changes will find this blade a reliable workhorse selection for light-to-medium fabrication tasks.

• Rated for ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood applications

Compatibility

Designed as a welded replacement bandsaw blade for stationary band saws accepting an 11 feet 9 inch loop length and 0.5-inch blade width. Verify wheel spacing and blade guides on the specific saw before installation.

Installation Notes

Band saw blade replacement should be performed by qualified shop technicians or millwrights with the machine fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade, as carbon steel edges are sharp. Confirm blade tension, tracking, and guide bearing alignment after installation before resuming cuts. Do not exceed the blade speed or depth-of-cut limits specified by the band saw manufacturer for this blade width and TPI.
