Starrett 19475 Welded Bandsaw Blade 12 Ft 14 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 19475 is a welded carbon steel bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for continuous contour cutting in metal fabrication and general shop use. The blade measures 12 feet in length and 1/2 inch in width, with a thickness of 0.025 inches. A constant-pitch, 14 TPI raker tooth configuration delivers consistent chip clearance and controlled cut finish across a range of workpiece materials. The flexible back type allows the blade to track smoothly on standard bandsaw wheels without fatigue cracking under normal operating cycles. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and pipefitters commonly use metal-cutting bandsaws with blades like this one for cutting conduit, pipe, and structural stock.

The 19475 is suited for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood, making it a versatile stock blade for trade and light industrial shops. The straight tooth form and raker set pattern alternate chip displacement, which reduces blade deflection during straight and contour cuts. This blade is a practical choice for production environments where a reliable pre-welded loop eliminates field welding and splicing time. Package quantity is one blade per unit.

Key Features

• Duratec SFB series carbon steel construction for consistent performance on ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Constant 14 TPI pitch with raker tooth set for steady chip evacuation and smooth cut finish
• Straight tooth form reduces cutting force on thin-wall and light structural stock
• Flexible back type resists fatigue cracking on standard bandsaw wheel diameters
• Pre-welded loop eliminates field splicing and reduces blade prep time
• Rated for contour cutting applications in addition to straight cuts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock blade for horizontal and vertical bandsaws accepting a 12-foot, 1/2-inch-wide blade loop. Confirmed material applications include ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation and tensioning should be performed by a qualified technician with the machine fully de-energized and locked out per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify wheel diameter and blade guide spacing are compatible with a 1/2-inch blade width before mounting. Do not exceed the bandsaw manufacturer's specified blade tension for this width and thickness. Inspect blade welds and tooth set before first use and replace at the first sign of cracking or missing teeth.
