Part of the Intenss PRO-DIE series, it measures 125 inches long and 1\/2 inch wide, with a 0.035-inch thickness and a variable pitch of 8 to 12 TPI. The cutting teeth are M42 high speed steel with a positive rake angle and raker set, which promotes aggressive chip clearance and consistent cut quality through a wide range of metal stock. Licensed tradespeople and skilled machinists working production or toolroom applications will find this blade suited to sustained metal-cutting cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is designed for metal-cutting vertical or horizontal bandsaws accepting a 125-inch loop. The variable 8-12 TPI pitch reduces harmonic vibration during the cut, making it effective across varying cross-sections and wall thicknesses. Rated material applications include steel, stainless steel, exotic steel, and non-ferrous metals. Contour cutting is supported, making it a workable choice for radius cuts and profiling operations in addition to straight stock cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with M42 high speed steel teeth for extended edge life on hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable 8-12 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves surface finish on irregular cross-sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle with raker tooth set promotes aggressive, efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible back material accommodates continuous bandsaw wheel flex without fatigue cracking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for steel, stainless steel, exotic steel, and non-ferrous metal cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContour cutting capable for radius and profile work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a welded-loop replacement blade for metal-cutting bandsaws requiring a 125-inch blade length and 1\/2-inch blade width.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the bandsaw fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout\/tagout procedures. Verify wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and tension settings match the blade width and thickness before powering the machine. Do not exceed the saw manufacturer's rated blade speed for the material being cut. Inspect blade welds and tooth condition before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 inches\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: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-12 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: M42 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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intenss PRO-DIE\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\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 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: 16719\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540752957746,"sku":"16719","price":108.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9aa75abb83aa93061f818c02dafbf13c_9e8a854b-1210-433f-9c26-7ce56c9b1b63.jpg?v=1785863563","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16719-welded-bandsaw-blade-8-12-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
