The coil measures 100 feet in length at 3\/8 inch width and 0.025 inch thickness, providing a large supply that can be cut to fit a wide range of band saw machines. The blade combines an alloy steel back with high speed steel teeth for durability under repeated use. A variable pitch tooth pattern in the 8-12 TPI range reduces vibration and chatter, making it suitable for cutting varying cross-sections and material thicknesses without changing blades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis coil stock is well suited for job shops and service operations that run multiple band saw frames or frequently re-blade machines. The 3\/8 inch width makes it appropriate for contour cutting as well as straight cuts on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The raker tooth set improves chip clearance and helps maintain consistent cut quality across longer production runs. Technicians who stock coil rather than pre-welded blades can weld custom lengths on-site to match specific saw wheel diameters and blade guides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with alloy steel back and high speed steel teeth for extended blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch 8-12 TPI reduces vibration when cutting varied material profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set promotes efficient chip evacuation and clean cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch width supports contour cutting capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100-foot coil stock allows custom blade lengths to be welded as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight tooth form and straight rake angle for consistent, controlled cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a coil-stock replacement blade for band saw machines that accept 3\/8 inch wide blades.

Power down and lockout the band saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. When welding coil stock to length, follow the saw manufacturer's recommended tension settings for the blade width and material being cut. Inspect blade guides, wheel alignment, and blade tracking before returning the machine to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoil Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-12 Variable\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: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\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\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: 15840\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540232339762,"sku":"15840","price":1325.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9f2c1476bd7b14e3bba6f8ab9e39b8c9.jpg?v=1785849679","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-15840-band-saw-blade-coil-3-8-in-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
