At 93 inches long and 0.5 inches wide, with a blade thickness of 0.025 inches, this blade is built for precision contour cutting on band saw equipment used in fabrication shops and metalworking trades. The M42 high speed steel tooth material and positive rake angle deliver aggressive, consistent cutting across varying stock thicknesses. An 18 TPI constant pitch configuration keeps cut finish uniform, making it well suited for thin-wall tubing, structural shapes, and solid bar stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe STARRETT 17036 belongs to the Intenss series, designed for demanding metal-cutting environments in both shop and field service settings. Its wavy tooth set and flexible back construction reduce blade fatigue and blade breakage during contour or radius cuts. This blade is appropriate for use on horizontal and vertical band saw machines common in HVAC fabrication, plumbing rough-in shops, electrical conduit cutting, and general metal trades. Certified for cutting ferrous and non-ferrous metals, it handles a wide range of material types without requiring blade changes between jobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42 high speed steel teeth for extended cutting life on hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18 TPI constant pitch for consistent finish and reduced vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWavy tooth set minimizes blade drift and tooth strippage on thin stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle increases cutting aggressiveness and feed rate efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible back construction supports contour cutting without premature fatigue cracking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction bonds HSS teeth to a flexible alloy steel back for durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a welded replacement bandsaw blade for band saw machines accepting a 93-inch blade length and 0.5-inch blade width.

Verify blade tension and tracking adjustment according to the machine manufacturer specifications before resuming operation. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades. Inspect blade guides, blade wheels, and guide bearings for wear before mounting a new blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 93 inches (7 feet 9 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Constant\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: 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: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flexible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Toothed\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 pound\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: 17036\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542401843506,"sku":"17036","price":82.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ba126aeca18f78e046eb323bf66af914_d86111c2-f114-4992-9eb7-4863691852ea.jpg?v=1785899768","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-17036-welded-bandsaw-blade-18-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
