Starrett 14639 Welded Bandsaw Blade 14 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 14639 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for continuous cutting in stationary bandsaw applications. The blade measures 93 inches long and 3/8 inch wide, with a thickness of 0.025 inches and a constant 14 teeth-per-inch (TPI) pitch. The carbon steel construction covers both the blade body and tooth material, providing reliable performance across a range of general-purpose cutting tasks. A raker tooth set combined with a straight tooth form delivers consistent chip clearance and cut quality. This blade is installed by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working with stationary vertical or horizontal bandsaw equipment.

The STARRETT 14639 is suited for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood, making it a versatile choice for job shops, light fabrication facilities, and maintenance departments. The flexible back type reduces blade fatigue during extended cutting cycles and helps the blade track smoothly around bandsaw wheels. The constant pitch at 14 TPI is appropriate for stock of moderate thickness where a consistent, controlled cut is needed. Contour cutting capability allows the blade to follow curved or irregular cut paths, adding to its range of applications.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style welded bandsaw blade replacement for stationary bandsaws requiring a 93-inch blade with a 3/8-inch width. Confirm wheel spacing and blade guide clearance on the specific saw before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade replacement should be performed by a qualified technician. Disconnect power to the saw and release blade tension fully before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade, as edges are sharp. After installation, set blade tension and guide clearance per the saw manufacturer's specifications before resuming operation.
