Built on the Intenss PRO series platform, it combines a flexible alloy steel back with M42 high-speed steel teeth for extended edge life under demanding cutting conditions. The blade measures 10 feet in length, 0.75 inches wide, and 0.035 inches thick. Variable pitch tooth spacing ranging from 6 to 10 TPI reduces harmonic vibration during cuts and helps prevent tooth stripping on workpieces with varying cross-sections. Raker tooth set and a positive rake angle work together to produce consistent chip evacuation. Installed by machinists and metal fabricators, this blade suits production-grade vertical and horizontal band saws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 15515 is sized for band saws with a 10-foot blade capacity and is appropriate for cutting a range of ferrous metals including mild steel, tool steel, and structural shapes, as well as non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper. The variable pitch design makes it effective across both solid bar stock and thin-walled tubing or structural profiles. It is well suited to job shop and maintenance environments where operators cut mixed material types without swapping blades. Contour cutting is not the intended application for this blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 high-speed steel teeth for extended wear life on ferrous and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch 6 to 10 TPI reduces vibration and tooth stripping on irregular cross-sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with positive rake angle promotes clean chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible alloy steel back resists fatigue and cracking under continuous band saw operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded construction provides consistent blade tension and smooth tracking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntenss PRO series design balances cut rate and blade longevity in production use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for band saws requiring a 10-foot welded bi-metal blade, 0.75 inches wide and 0.035 inches thick, rated for ferrous and non-ferrous metal cutting applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician following the band saw manufacturer's tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lockout the machine before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade, as edges and tooth tips present a laceration hazard. Verify blade tension and tracking alignment before resuming operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 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: 6 to 10 variable pitch\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: M42 High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Raker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flexible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\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\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intenss PRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 15515\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544173281586,"sku":"15515","price":112.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/24200e8ad6f3281f1b5ee27144de562d_d7d1be62-02dc-4595-94aa-6b4eb92c3fb7.jpg?v=1785925197","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-15515-bi-metal-bandsaw-blade-10ft-3-4in-6-10-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
