Measuring 105 inches long and 3\/4 inches wide with a 0.035-inch thickness, this blade runs on standard horizontal and vertical metal-cutting bandsaws. The variable pitch tooth pattern at 6 to 10 TPI reduces harmonic vibration and improves chip evacuation during cuts through varying material thicknesses. High speed steel teeth are set in a raker pattern and ground to a straight tooth form with a positive rake angle, delivering consistent cut quality on structural steel, tubing, and aluminum stock. Licensed machinists, pipefitters, and fabricators are the primary installers and operators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for production and maintenance cutting of ferrous metals such as structural steel, tool steel, and pipe, as well as non-ferrous materials including aluminum, brass, and copper. The flexible back construction allows continuous operation under tension without premature fatigue cracking. The Intenss PRO series designation indicates it is designed for demanding, high-cycle cutting applications found in commercial fabrication shops and industrial maintenance settings. It is not intended for contour or radius cutting work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible alloy back for extended blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch 6 to 10 TPI reduces vibration and improves cut finish on varying cross-sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set promotes efficient chip removal and reduces blade loading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle on straight tooth form delivers aggressive, clean cuts in metal stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible back type resists fatigue cracking during continuous high-cycle operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for both ferrous and non-ferrous metal applications in a single blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit welded blade for metal-cutting bandsaw machines accepting a 105-inch blade length and 3\/4-inch blade width.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with bandsaw blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lock out the bandsaw before removing the worn blade or installing a new one. Set blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer specifications before running the blade under load. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade, as teeth are sharp along the full length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 105 inches (8 feet 9 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intenss PRO\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\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2 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: 16720\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541491089714,"sku":"16720","price":112.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/24200e8ad6f3281f1b5ee27144de562d_e017d298-4929-4db1-982d-ac18209b3e99.jpg?v=1785877702","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16720-welded-bandsaw-blade-6-10-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
