Starrett 14440 Welded Bandsaw Blade 9 Ft 14 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 14440 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for consistent, reliable cuts in a wide range of materials. Built from carbon steel with a flexible back, the blade measures 9 feet long and 3/4 inch wide with a 0.032-inch thickness. The 14 teeth-per-inch constant-pitch configuration delivers smooth, repeatable cutting performance. A straight tooth form combined with a raker set helps clear chips efficiently during contour cutting operations. This blade is suited for use by machinists, metal fabricators, and production shops running vertical or horizontal bandsaws.

The STARRETT 14440 is rated for contour cutting and performs across multiple material types including ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood. Its 14 TPI constant pitch is well-suited for medium-thickness stock where finish quality and feed rate both matter. The raker tooth set provides balanced chip clearance for interrupted or continuous cuts. This blade is a solid fit for job shops and production environments that run a variety of materials on a single machine.
