It measures 174 inches long and 1-1\/4 inches wide with a blade thickness of 0.042 inches. The variable pitch tooth pattern runs at 5 to 8 teeth per inch (TPI), reducing harmonic vibration and improving cut quality across a range of material cross-sections. High speed steel teeth are set in a raker pattern with a positive rake angle and straight tooth form. A flexible back type helps the blade track consistently on bandsaw wheels and resist fatigue during extended cutting cycles. This blade is part of the Intenss PRO series and is intended for installation by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working with metal cutting bandsaws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for production and maintenance cutting of ferrous metals such as steel and iron as well as non-ferrous metals including aluminum and copper alloys. The variable 5-8 TPI pitch is well matched to structural shapes, solid bar stock, and tubing where a single-pitch blade would chatter or produce rough cuts. Typical install scenarios include horizontal and vertical metal cutting bandsaws found in fabrication shops, machine shops, and industrial maintenance facilities.\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 alloy back for long blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable 5-8 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves surface finish on varied cross-sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle increases cutting aggression on metal stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaker tooth set provides efficient chip clearance during metal cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e174-inch welded loop length fits standard 14-foot 6-inch bandsaw machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for both ferrous and non-ferrous metal applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit blade for metal cutting bandsaws that accept a 174-inch by 1-1\/4-inch blade.

Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the bandsaw before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade, as the teeth present a laceration hazard. Set blade tension and tracking per the bandsaw manufacturer specifications before resuming cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 174 inches (14 feet 6 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-8 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\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intenss PRO\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.4 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: 20739\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STARRETT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541763686706,"sku":"20739","price":215.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/24200e8ad6f3281f1b5ee27144de562d_ba7a790c-b420-4ed8-9ab0-a0bf49a93630.jpg?v=1785884324","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/starrett-20739-welded-bandsaw-blade-5-8-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
