Starrett 13837 Band Saw Blade Coil 1/2 in 100 Ft 14 Tpi

Product Description

The STARRETT 13837 is a carbon steel band saw blade coil stock designed for continuous contour cutting applications. The coil measures 100 feet in length and features a 1/2-inch blade width with a 0.025-inch blade thickness, providing a balance of flexibility and structural integrity during cuts. At 14 teeth per inch with a constant pitch and raker tooth set, this blade is suited for general-purpose cutting of wood, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials. A flexible back construction allows the blade to run consistently on the saw's wheels without fatigue cracking under normal operating conditions. Licensed tradespeople and professional fabricators cut blades from this coil stock to custom lengths as needed.

This coil stock is intended for shop environments where multiple custom-length band saw blades are required from a single supply roll. It suits metalworking shops, woodworking facilities, and maintenance departments that operate band saws regularly and need on-hand stock for blade replacement or custom sizing. The constant-pitch 14 TPI configuration handles a range of general cutting tasks without requiring a dedicated variable-pitch blade. Contour cutting capability makes this blade appropriate for curved or irregular cut profiles in addition to straight cuts.

Key Features

• Carbon steel blade material for general-purpose durability in a wide range of cutting applications
• 14 teeth per inch constant pitch for consistent chip load and cut quality
• Raker tooth set pattern for efficient chip clearance and reduced heat buildup
• Flexible back construction resists fatigue and extends service life on band saw wheels
• Straight tooth form and straight rake angle for predictable, controlled cutting action
• 100-foot coil length allows multiple blades to be cut to job-specific lengths

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose band saw blade coil stock compatible with band saws that accept 1/2-inch wide blades. Blade lengths are cut to specification from the coil and joined using a blade welder or brazing equipment.

Installation Notes

Blade cutting and joining should be performed by a qualified technician using appropriate blade-welding or brazing equipment. Power down and lock out the band saw before removing the existing blade or installing a new one. Ensure proper blade tension and wheel tracking are set according to the saw manufacturer's guidelines before operating. Eye protection and cut-resistant gloves are standard PPE when handling coil stock.
