Measuring 13 feet 6 inches in length and 1 inch wide with a 0.035-inch thickness, this blade fits standard vertical and horizontal band saws sized for that loop length. The variable pitch design runs at 3 to 4 TPI, reducing harmonic vibration during the cut and extending blade life on interrupted or varying cross-sections. High speed steel teeth are electron-beam welded to a flexible alloy steel back, giving the blade both edge hardness and body fatigue resistance across long production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for metal fabrication shops, pipe and structural steel cutting, maintenance and repair operations, and production environments where consistent ferrous and non-ferrous stock removal is required. The raker tooth set and positive rake angle deliver efficient chip clearance on solid bar, tubing, angle iron, aluminum extrusions, and similar stock profiles. It is a direct-fit replacement for shop band saws that accept a 13-foot 6-inch welded loop blade in the 1-inch width class. Machinists, fabricators, and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers and users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction: high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible alloy steel back for durability and fatigue resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch 3-4 TPI reduces vibration and noise during cutting of varying cross-sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with positive rake angle promotes aggressive chip clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight tooth form delivers consistent, repeatable cuts on solid and hollow stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible back resists cracking and work-hardening over extended blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for both ferrous metals and non-ferrous metals including aluminum and copper alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a welded loop replacement blade for vertical or horizontal band saws accepting a 1-inch-wide blade in a 13-foot 6-inch loop length.

Verify wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and blade tension spec on the host machine before mounting. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade. After tensioning, run the blade unloaded briefly to confirm tracking before beginning cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 feet 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\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\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Raker\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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ferrous Metal, Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intenss PRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.2 pounds\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: 20623\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723544559922,"sku":"20623","price":171.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/24200e8ad6f3281f1b5ee27144de562d_673b5a53-8f77-4114-ae10-c8c0cdec7799.jpg?v=1788606041","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-20623-welded-bandsaw-blade-3-4-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
