Manufactured under the Intenss PRO-DIE series, the blade features an M42 high speed steel tooth material bonded to a flexible back, combining tooth hardness with back toughness. At 93.5 inches long and 0.5 inches wide, it runs a constant 4 TPI hook-form tooth pattern with a raker set and positive rake angle. Licensed HVAC shops, pipefitters, fabricators, and general metalworking trades typically install this blade on horizontal or vertical bandsaw machines sized to accept a 93.5-inch loop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for cutting steel, stainless steel, exotic steel alloys, and non-ferrous metals. The constant 4 TPI pitch provides aggressive material removal in solid stock and structural shapes. The hook tooth form accelerates chip clearance, and the raker tooth set distributes cutting load evenly across the blade width. It is a practical choice for job-shop environments where a single blade must handle a variety of metal types without frequent changeovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with M42 high speed steel teeth for extended blade life on hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConstant 4 TPI hook tooth form for aggressive, fast cuts in solid and structural stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set for balanced cutting load and consistent chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle improves feed rate and reduces cutting force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible back material reduces fatigue cracking during continuous bandsaw operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eContour cutting capable for curved or irregular workpiece profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for bandsaw machines that accept a 93.5-inch welded loop blade with a 0.5-inch width and 0.025-inch blade thickness.
