It measures 90 inches long and 0.5 inches wide with a blade thickness of 0.035 inches. The cutting edge runs at a constant 14 TPI pitch with a straight tooth form, raker tooth set, and positive rake angle. The teeth are made from M42 high speed steel, offering hardness and edge retention well-suited to production metal cutting environments. The flexible back allows the blade to run smoothly on standard bandsaw wheel configurations. Licensed HVAC technicians, pipefitters, machinists, and metal fabricators working in commercial and industrial shops are the primary installers and users of this blade type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade is designed for contour cutting applications on both ferrous metals such as mild steel and stainless, and non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper. It fits bandsaws with a 7 foot 6 inch blade length requirement. The constant pitch design at 14 TPI makes it most effective on solid stock and structural shapes in the small-to-medium cross-section range. It is well-suited for fabrication shops, HVAC contractors cutting metal duct and structural supports, plumbing shops, and general metalworking environments where consistent cut quality on mixed metal types is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with M42 high speed steel teeth for extended cutting life on hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConstant 14 TPI pitch for consistent finish on ferrous and non-ferrous metal stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle and raker tooth set for efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible back material supports smooth tracking on standard bandsaw wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eContour cutting capable, allowing curved and radius cuts in metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the Intenss series, engineered for demanding production cutting cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for bandsaws requiring a 7 foot 6 inch welded blade with a 0.5 inch width.

Disconnect and lock out power to the saw before removing the existing blade or installing a new one. Confirm proper blade tension according to the saw manufacturer specification and verify blade tracking before resuming cuts. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade, as the teeth present a laceration hazard during handling and installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 inches (7 feet 6 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14\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 Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Raker\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42\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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ferrous Metal, Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intenss\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 pounds\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: 15514\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539477004594,"sku":"15514","price":89.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ba126aeca18f78e046eb323bf66af914_5ba7f972-26c4-48d0-b362-98204fa76ef1.jpg?v=1785841094","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-15514-welded-bandsaw-blade-14-tpi-bi-metal-m42","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
