The blade measures 9 feet 11-1\/2 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.035 inches in thickness. The variable-pitch tooth pattern at 4 to 6 TPI reduces vibration and harmonics during the cut, extending blade life and improving surface finish. High speed steel M42 teeth are set in a raker pattern with a positive rake angle for aggressive, efficient stock removal. Machinists, fabricators, and metal shop technicians are the primary installers and users of this blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for production and maintenance cutting on vertical or horizontal band saws with the appropriate wheel diameter and blade guide clearance to accept a 1-inch-wide blade. It handles structural steel, tubing, solid bar, aluminum, copper, and other ferrous and non-ferrous metal profiles. The flexible back construction allows the blade to track consistently on the saw's wheels without fatigue cracking under normal operating tension. It is appropriate for both job-shop and light production environments where a range of material types and cross sections are encountered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible alloy back\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable pitch 4 to 6 TPI reduces vibration and chatter on varying cross sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with positive rake angle for fast, clean cuts in metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight tooth form compatible with contour cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for both ferrous and non-ferrous metal applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFactory-welded to finished loop length — ready to install\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for band saws that accept a 1-inch-wide blade at a loop length of 9 feet 11-1\/2 inches. Suitable for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Disconnect and lock out power to the saw before handling or changing the blade. Use appropriate cut-resistant gloves when uncoiling or handling the blade. Do not exceed the saw manufacturer's specified blade tension or width capacity, as doing so can cause premature blade failure or equipment damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 feet 11-1\/2 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: 4 to 6 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\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\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\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: 1.1 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: 16619\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539253592370,"sku":"16619","price":126.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ba126aeca18f78e046eb323bf66af914_a2711214-6bdf-4e29-995e-08cb672fe9e7.jpg?v=1785837181","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16619-welded-bandsaw-blade-4-6-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
