The blade measures 9 feet 7.5 inches in length and 0.75 inches in width, with a thickness of 0.032 inches and a constant-pitch layout of 8 teeth per inch. Both the blade body and tooth material are carbon steel, giving the blade a consistent hardness profile suited for repetitive cutting cycles. The flexible back type reduces fatigue stress during curved cuts. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical shops use this style of blade on metal-cutting and general-purpose bandsaws where a pre-welded, ready-to-run loop is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16109 is rated for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood, making it a practical choice for shops that run mixed-material work on a single machine. The raker tooth set alternates left, right, and straight-raker teeth to produce a controlled kerf and clear chips efficiently in solid stock and sheet material. The straight tooth form and straight rake angle suit moderate feed rates in general shop applications. This blade fits bandsaws with a 9 feet 7.5 inch wheel-to-wheel blade path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuratec SFB series carbon steel construction — both blade back and teeth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 TPI constant-pitch layout for consistent chip load across the full cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with straight tooth form and straight rake angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible back type reduces cracking stress during contour and curved cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePre-welded loop — mounts directly without field joining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned to fit bandsaws requiring a 9 feet 7.5 inch welded blade loop with a 0.75 inch blade width.

Power down and lock out the bandsaw at the disconnect before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled or uncoiled blade — the teeth are exposed along the full length. Verify blade tension using the tensioning scale on the machine and confirm blade tracking before running the saw under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Duratec SFB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 feet 7.5 inches\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: 0.032 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Constant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon 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: Straight\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, Plastic, Plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.79 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: 16109\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540619657522,"sku":"16109","price":53.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ee43fea376a18bd8349f67f828f3345d_a081b76b-aaf2-464d-98d7-10bbb228806c.jpg?v=1785860266","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16109-welded-bandsaw-blade-8-tpi-carbon-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
