The blade measures 0.25 inches wide and 0.025 inches thick, supplied in a 100-foot coil that allows the user to cut blades to custom lengths for a wide range of band saw sizes. Constructed from carbon steel with a straight tooth form, straight rake angle, and wavy tooth set, this coil stock delivers consistent cutting performance at 24 teeth per inch. The flexible back reduces blade fatigue during tight-radius cuts. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers and users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coil stock is suited for light metal cutting, plastics, and similar materials where a fine-pitch, wavy-set blade is appropriate. The constant pitch pattern provides smooth, even chip load throughout the cut. At 24 TPI, this blade is well matched to thin-wall tubing, small-diameter bar stock, and sheet material. The 100-foot coil length provides enough stock to weld multiple blades, making it a practical supply item for shops that run several band saw sizes or go through blades at volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction for general-purpose band saw cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24 teeth per inch constant pitch for smooth cutting on thin materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWavy tooth set reduces vibration and minimizes tooth strippage on thin stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible back design resists blade cracking during contour cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.025-inch blade thickness suits standard light-duty band saw wheel geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e100-foot coil allows custom blade lengths to be welded in-shop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a coil stock replacement or shop-supply blade for band saws that accept a 0.25-inch wide by 0.025-inch thick blade.

Power down and lock out the band saw before removing the existing blade or installing a new one. Use a blade welder appropriate for carbon steel at the specified thickness and width, and dress the weld to remove any bead that would interfere with blade guides. Follow the band saw manufacturer guidelines for proper blade tension to avoid premature breakage or wheel damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoil Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wavy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Constant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flexible\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Toothed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STARRETT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12898\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544499880242,"sku":"12898","price":297.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4c7d634ced932baeebe2ec559a54857b.jpg?v=1785928241","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-12898-band-saw-blade-coil-stock-1-4-in-100-ft","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
