Starrett 14071 Welded Bandsaw Blade 94in 14 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 14071 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for contour cutting in metal fabrication, woodworking, and plastics applications. The blade measures 94 inches in length and 0.5 inches in width with a thickness of 0.025 inches. It runs at a constant 14 TPI pitch with a straight tooth form and raker tooth set, delivering consistent chip clearing and smooth cuts. The carbon steel construction throughout both the blade back and tooth material suits light-to-medium duty cutting tasks. Licensed trade professionals and skilled fabricators install this blade on vertical or horizontal band saws where contour cutting capability is required.

This blade is suited for residential shop and light commercial fabrication environments. The Duratec SFB series targets applications involving ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood. The flexible back type allows the blade to track smoothly around bandsaw wheels without premature fatigue cracking, making it a practical choice for shops running frequent contour cuts across mixed materials. The constant pitch pattern makes it best suited for solid stock or materials with consistent cross-sections rather than interrupted or variable-wall cuts.

Key Features

• 94-inch welded blade length fits a wide range of standard bandsaw frames
• 0.5-inch blade width supports contour cutting with controlled kerf
• 14 TPI constant pitch for consistent chip load across ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood
• Raker tooth set for balanced chip evacuation on solid-section materials
• Flexible back type reduces wheel fatigue and extends blade service life
• Full carbon steel construction for cost-effective performance on light-to-medium duty cuts

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or spare welded bandsaw blade for band saws accepting a 94-inch blade length with a 0.5-inch blade width. Confirmed material applications include ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with bandsaw blade tensioning and wheel alignment procedures. Disconnect and lock out power to the saw before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Verify wheel tracking and blade guides are properly adjusted after installation before resuming operation. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling bandsaw blades.
