Measuring 150 inches long and 1\/2 inch wide with a 0.025-inch thickness, this blade features a variable 10-14 TPI pitch pattern and M42 high-speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible alloy back. The variable pitch reduces harmonic vibration and chatter during the cut, resulting in a smoother finish and longer blade life under continuous-duty conditions. Licensed machinists, tool-and-die shops, and fabrication professionals are the primary users of this blade series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade is part of the Intenss PRO-DIE series, designed specifically for contour cutting and straight cutting on steel, stainless steel, exotic steel alloys, and non-ferrous metals. The positive rake angle and raker tooth set make it well-suited for both solid bar stock and structural profiles. It is a strong fit for vertical and horizontal metal-cutting bandsaws in production, maintenance, and tool-and-die settings where a single blade must handle a range of material types and cross-sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable 10-14 TPI pitch reduces vibration and chatter for smoother cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM42 high-speed steel teeth provide extended wear life on hard and abrasive metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction combines tooth hardness with a flexible alloy back to resist fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle improves cutting aggression on steel and exotic alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with straight tooth form supports contour and straight cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePre-welded loop — ready to install with no field welding required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for metal-cutting bandsaws that accept a 150-inch loop blade 1\/2 inch wide. Suitable for cutting steel, stainless steel, exotic steel, and non-ferrous metal. Verify your saw's wheel diameter and blade guide clearance before installation to confirm dimensional fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tool operator following the saw manufacturer's tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lock out the bandsaw before changing blades. Inspect blade guides, thrust bearings, and wheel tires for wear before mounting a new blade. Do not force the blade onto wheels — improper tensioning can cause premature cracking at the weld joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 inches (12 feet 6 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: 0.025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10-14 (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 (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: 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: 1.3 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: 16723\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541738258738,"sku":"16723","price":117.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9aa75abb83aa93061f818c02dafbf13c_850d4383-a707-4ae8-91ac-328c5818474f.jpg?v=1785883528","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16723-welded-bandsaw-blade-10-14-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
