The blade measures 56 inches in length and 0.25 inches in width, with a thickness of 0.025 inches and a constant 6 teeth-per-inch (TPI) pitch. Carbon steel construction is used for both the blade body and tooth material, making it a cost-effective choice for general-purpose cutting across a range of materials. The wavy tooth set and straight tooth form deliver controlled chip removal and consistent kerf width. Fabricators, maintenance technicians, and metalworking shops are the primary installers and users of this blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe STARRETT 16913 is suited for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood. The constant pitch pattern at 6 TPI makes it a practical choice for general shop work where a single blade must handle varied stock. The flexible back type allows the blade to track consistently on standard two-wheel and three-wheel band saws. Contour cutting capability means it can navigate curved cut paths in addition to straight rip and crosscut operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e56-inch welded loop length fits common stationary band saw models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon steel blade and tooth construction for general-purpose durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 TPI constant pitch pattern for balanced stock removal and surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWavy tooth set reduces blade vibration and extends tooth life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible back type maintains consistent tracking under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 16913 is rated for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood.

Verify wheel diameter and blade length compatibility before mounting. Tension and tracking should be set according to the saw manufacturer's specifications before making the first cut. Inspect the welded joint for straightness and integrity prior to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 56 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\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: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Constant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wavy\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: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flexible\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, Plastic, Plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Duratec SFB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 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: 16913\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542209069362,"sku":"16913","price":29.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ee43fea376a18bd8349f67f828f3345d_a2024a7d-0d98-46e4-8a0f-55581441b08d.jpg?v=1785895157","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-16913-welded-bandsaw-blade-56in-6-tpi-carbon-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
