Measuring 12 feet 6 inches in length and 0.035 inches thick with a 3\/4-inch width, this blade runs on horizontal and vertical metal-cutting bandsaws found in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and machine shops. The variable-pitch tooth design in a 6 to 10 TPI range reduces vibration and harmonic noise during cuts, extending blade life and improving surface finish. High speed steel teeth are electron-beam welded to a flexible bi-metal back, combining edge retention with resistance to tooth strippage on interrupted cuts. Part of the Intenss PRO series, this blade is suited for professional metalworking use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe STARRETT 16111 is designed for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous metals including structural steel, alloy steel, aluminum, brass, and copper. Its raker tooth set and positive rake angle promote aggressive chip clearance in solid bar stock, tubing, and structural shapes. The variable pitch pattern makes it effective across a wide range of cross-sections without requiring a blade change. Licensed metalworking professionals, maintenance machinists, and fabricators working with production or job-shop bandsaws are the primary installers and users of this blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable pitch 6 to 10 TPI reduces vibration and chatter during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with high speed steel teeth for extended edge life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with positive rake angle for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible back resists fatigue cracking under continuous bandsaw operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for both ferrous and non-ferrous metal applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the Intenss PRO series for demanding production environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a welded-loop replacement blade for metal-cutting bandsaws that accept a 12-foot 6-inch blade length with a 3\/4-inch width and 0.035-inch blade thickness.

Confirm blade tracking, tension, and guide clearances according to the saw manufacturer specifications before running the blade under load. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or looped bandsaw blades. Do not exceed the blade speed or feed rate appropriate for the material being cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 feet 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch\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: 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\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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 PRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.8 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242112\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: 16111\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538304794930,"sku":"16111","price":136.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/24200e8ad6f3281f1b5ee27144de562d_0d822d23-468a-43e5-9a8d-602cb43faead.jpg?v=1785822454","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16111-bi-metal-bandsaw-blade-6-10-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
