Starrett 12354 Welded Bandsaw Blade 10 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 12354 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for continuous contour cutting on metal and non-metal materials. It measures 6 feet 8 inches in length and 0.5 inches in width, with a blade thickness of 0.025 inches. The blade runs at a constant pitch of 10 teeth per inch and uses a raker tooth set with a straight tooth form and straight rake angle. Both the blade body and tooth material are carbon steel, giving it a flexible back suited to general bandsaw applications. Licensed trades and skilled fabricators install this blade as a direct-fit replacement on compatible horizontal and vertical bandsaws.

The STARRETT 12354 is suited for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood. Its flexible carbon steel back allows it to track consistently through curves and straight cuts alike. The constant 10 TPI pitch makes it a practical choice for general-purpose material removal where surface finish and cut speed need to be balanced. It is typically used in fabrication shops, light industrial settings, and trade service environments where a reliable, all-purpose bandsaw blade is required.

Inspect the blade welds and wheel surfaces for damage before powering the machine on.
