The blade measures 13 feet 11 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.035 inches in thickness. It features a variable pitch tooth pattern at 4 to 6 teeth per inch, which reduces vibration and harmonic resonance during cuts. High speed steel teeth are bonded to a flexible backing for durability under repeated flex cycles. This blade is installed and serviced by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working with production band saws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 20718 is suited for cutting ferrous metals such as mild steel, alloy steel, and structural shapes, as well as non-ferrous materials including aluminum, brass, and copper. The variable 4-6 TPI pitch makes it effective across a range of stock thicknesses and profiles. The raker tooth set and positive rake angle promote aggressive chip clearance and consistent feed rates in shop and light industrial environments. It is intended for use on band saws with a blade path matching the 13-foot 11-inch loop length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible back for extended blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable 4-6 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves cut quality across varied stock sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set with positive rake angle promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight tooth form supports consistent, controlled cuts on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart of the Intenss PRO series, engineered for production and industrial band saw applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded construction forms a continuous loop ready to install without additional joining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for stationary band saws accepting a blade length of 13 feet 11 inches, 1 inch wide, and 0.035 inches thick.
