Starrett 19470 Welded Bandsaw Blade 6 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 19470 is a welded bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for continuous-loop cutting on stationary band saws in trade and industrial settings. The blade measures 20 feet 3 inches in length and 3/8 inch wide, with a 0.025-inch thickness and a constant-pitch 6 TPI hook-tooth profile. A raker tooth set and positive rake angle promote aggressive chip clearance during straight and contour cuts. Carbon steel construction in both the blade body and tooth material delivers consistent performance across a range of workpiece materials. Licensed tradespeople and shop technicians are the primary installers and users of this blade.

The 19470 is suited for contour cutting and general-purpose band saw work in both residential shop and light commercial settings. Its material application range covers ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood, making it a versatile choice when a single blade must handle varied stock. The flexible back type reduces blade fatigue during curved cuts and extended run time. The constant pitch pattern ensures predictable feed rates and surface finish consistency across these materials.

Installation Notes

Band saw blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician with the saw fully powered down and unplugged before blade removal or installation. Confirm wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and throat capacity match the 20 ft 3 in loop length and 3/8 in width before mounting. Blade tension and tracking should be set according to the saw manufacturer specifications before resuming cuts. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades.
