Step 1: Select Blade Type
Carbon Steel Flexback
Accept & Continue With Options
Applications:
- Used for cutting wood, plastics and non-ferrous materials.
- May cut mild steel and structural shapes at slow band speeds.
- Highest fatigue resistant backer of all blade types.
- One piece construction.
- Teeth hardened to 64-67Rc, Backing hardened to 28-35Rc
- Most economically priced of all blade types.
Carbon Steel Hardback
Accept & Continue With Options
Applications:
- Used for cutting wood, plastics and non-ferrous materials.
- May cut mild steel and structural shapes at slow band speeds.
- Back is hardened, so fatigue resistant of backing is not a good as Flexback material, however harder backing provides greater beam strength.
- One piece construction.
- Teeth hardened to 64-67Rc, Backing hardened to 42-48Rc
- Priced slightly higher than Flexback blades
Carbon Steel Furniture Band
Accept & Continue With Options
Applications:
- Used for cutting wood, chipboard, plywood & cardboard.
- Special "ETS" Every Tooth Set pattern.
- Aggressive 10 degree rake angle provides fast cutting
- One piece construction.
- Thicker blade (.032")
- Teeth hardened to 64-67Rc, Backing hardened to 28-35Rc
- Priced slightly higher than Flexback blades
Bimetal Matrix
Accept & Continue With Options
Applications:
- Used for cutting mild steel & structural shapes, non-ferrous materials, not recommended for alloys & stainless steels.
- 8% Cobalt Matrix High Speed Steel tooth tips resist impact & vibration better than an M42 blade.
- Provides much longer life than Carbon Steel blades in ferrous applications, provides over 3 times the heat resistance allowing them to run significantly faster than Carbon Steel blades.
- Teeth hardened to 66-68Rc
- Priced approximately 3-4 times higher than Carbon Steel blades
Bimetal M42
Accept & Continue With Options
Applications:
- Used for cutting steel, non-ferrous materials, alloys & stainless steels, solid sections
- 8% Cobalt M42 High Speed Steel tooth tips resist heat better than a Matrix blade.
- Provides much longer life than Carbon Steel blades in ferrous applications, provides over 3 times the heat resistance allowing them to run significantly faster than Carbon Steel blades.
- Teeth hardened to 67-69Rc
- Priced approximately 5-10% higher than Matrix blades.
Meat Cutting
Accept & Continue With Options
Applications:
- Used for fresh or frozen meat & bone cutting
