It measures 10 feet long and 1\/2 inch wide with a 0.025-inch blade thickness, making it a direct-fit loop blade for compatible horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines. The blade is constructed from a flexible alloy steel back bonded to M42 high speed steel teeth, delivering heat and wear resistance on tough materials. At 4 TPI with a constant pitch and hook tooth form, it produces an aggressive, efficient cut suited to solid stock and thick-walled sections. Licensed electricians, HVAC techs, and metalworking tradespeople rely on this blade profile for reliable, repeatable cuts across production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade is designed for cutting steel, stainless steel, exotic steel alloys, and non-ferrous metals. The Intenss PRO-DIE series targets die shop and general metalworking applications where material hardness and edge retention are critical. A raker tooth set and positive rake angle reduce cutting force and help clear chips efficiently, keeping the blade running cool through extended use. It is well suited to both intermittent job shop work and higher-volume production scenarios where blade longevity matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction: flexible alloy steel back bonded to M42 high speed steel cutting teeth for extended blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 TPI constant pitch with hook tooth form for aggressive stock removal on solid and thick-section metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with positive rake angle for efficient chip clearance and reduced heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for steel, stainless steel, exotic steel, and non-ferrous metal applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelded loop construction — 10 feet long, 1\/2 inch wide, 0.025 inches thick — ready to install\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the Intenss PRO-DIE series, designed for die shop and precision metalworking use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a welded loop replacement blade for bandsaw machines accepting a 10-foot, 1\/2-inch-wide blade.

Verify wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and blade tension specifications on the host machine before installing. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling and uncoiling the welded loop. Inspect blade guides and wheel tires for wear before mounting the new blade to avoid premature blade failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 1\/2 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\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Constant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hook\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Raker\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\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\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: Steel, Stainless Steel, Exotic Steel, Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intenss PRO-DIE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2 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: 16472\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540363772210,"sku":"16472","price":98.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9aa75abb83aa93061f818c02dafbf13c_3f672ab9-0e16-4ff3-adfd-ad20c1028fd4.jpg?v=1785853407","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16472-welded-bandsaw-blade-10-ft-4-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
