Frequently Asked Questions
Which band saw is it compatible with?
It is specific for small benchtop metal band saws (blade stroke 1325 mm).
Check the blade stroke (closed band length) of your saw before purchasing. The length is indicated in the machine manual or printed on the existing blade.
What is 8 TPI tooth spacing used for?
Suitable for general-purpose cutting on medium steels and tubular profiles with sections of 20-50 mm.
General rule for metal: low TPI (4-6) for large solids, medium TPI (8-10) for tubular profiles, high TPI (12-14) for thin sheets and thin-walled pipes. Typical cutting speed: 30-90 m/min on mild steel.
What can be cut with a 13 mm width?
It is suitable for contour cutting and curves, blades for small bench saws.
The width determines rigidity and the type of cut possible. For metals, a bimetallic blade (Biflex) with M42 HSS teeth on a flexible body is always required.
What does Biflex mean?
Biflex is a bimetallic blade with a flexible steel body and M42 HSS teeth, optimized for metal cutting.
M42 teeth (HSS-Co8 with a high cobalt percentage) resist temperatures up to 600 °C and maintain sharpness on hardened steels and hard alloys. The bimetallic structure combines body flexibility and tooth hardness.
How to tension it correctly?
Typical tension for metal blades: 25,000-35,000 PSI. Incorrect tension is the main cause of premature breakage.
Blades that are too loose cut crooked and break due to fatigue; blades that are too tight break due to mechanical tension. Always consult the saw manual for the exact value. Check cold after 5 minutes of operation.
