Starrett 20199 Welded Bandsaw Blade 6 Tpi Carbon Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 20199 is a welded carbon steel bandsaw blade from the Duratec SFB series, designed for continuous-loop cutting on stationary band saw machines. It measures 11 feet 3 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.035 inches in thickness, with a 6 teeth-per-inch (TPI) constant pitch configuration. The raker tooth set and straight tooth form deliver consistent chip clearance and controlled feed during contour cutting operations. At 1.34 pounds, this blade is built for shop-floor durability across a broad range of material types. Licensed tradespeople and experienced fabricators working with production band saws will find this blade sized and configured for demanding daily use.

The STARRETT 20199 is suited for cutting ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal, plastic, and plywood, making it a versatile option for metal fabrication shops, woodworking operations, and general manufacturing environments. The flexible back construction allows it to handle contour cutting paths without premature fatigue cracking. The constant pitch reduces harmonic vibration during cuts, which improves both surface finish and blade life when working through varied stock thicknesses.

Installation Notes

Band saw blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician with the machine fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures before blade removal or installation. Verify wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and blade tension specifications on the host machine before mounting. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled or looped blade. Confirm blade tracking and tension adjustment per the band saw manufacturer's service documentation before powering the unit.
