Measuring 13 feet 3 inches in length, 1 inch wide, and 0.035 inches thick, this blade features a variable pitch of 3 to 4 TPI and an M42 high-speed steel tooth tip bonded to a flexible back. The variable pitch reduces vibration and noise during cuts, extending blade life and improving surface finish on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It is part of the Starrett Intenss series, engineered for aggressive material removal on structural steel, pipe, tubing, and solid stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines used in commercial metal shops, maintenance facilities, and industrial fabrication environments. The 1-inch width and 13-foot 3-inch loop length fit mid-size to large production bandsaws. It handles both ferrous metals such as structural steel, alloy steel, and stainless, as well as non-ferrous metals including aluminum, brass, and copper. Raker tooth set and positive rake angle combine to deliver efficient chip clearance across a wide range of material cross-sections and wall thicknesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 high-speed steel teeth for extended cutting life on hard and tough metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch (3-4 TPI) reduces vibration and minimizes tooth stripping on interrupted cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with positive rake angle promotes aggressive chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible back design resists fatigue and cracking through continuous cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded loop construction ready to install without additional joining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for ferrous and non-ferrous metal applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade blade for mid-size to large industrial bandsaws accepting a 13-foot 3-inch blade loop with a 1-inch width.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lockout the bandsaw before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Use appropriate gloves when handling the blade, as tooth edges are sharp. Set blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer specifications before making a test cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 feet 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 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: 3-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\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\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\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: 2.4 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: 16112\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539068715314,"sku":"16112","price":161.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ba126aeca18f78e046eb323bf66af914_44149f96-381e-4e26-b27e-14fd2f644514.jpg?v=1785834278","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16112-welded-bandsaw-blade-3-4-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
