Magnate M70.5C316S6 Carbon Steel Bandsaw Blade, 70-1/2" Long - 3/16" Width, 6 Skip Tooth

All bandsaw blades are folded into 3 rings to avoid bulky packaging - The picture depicted represents one blade; the pricing is for one blade/package. Carbon tool steel bandsaw blades are made from high end carbon steel. It can cut all types of woods and is especially ideal for soft woods i.e. pine, polar, fir and spruce. It is also used for cutting plastics, aluminum, metals, and mild steel. Cutting mild steel at speeds under 200 fpm (feet per minute) with liquid coolant running along the back of the blade yields the best results. In order to cut metal materials, the following is a guideline for choosing the adequate tooth pattern of a carbon tool steel bandsaw blade. The type of tooth pattern used depends on the thickness of metal material to be cut. Use 24 raker to cut 1/16" to 1/4" thick material, Use 18 raker to cut 1/8" to 3/8" thick material, Use 14 raker to cut 3/16" to 7/16" thick material, Use 10 raker to cut 1/4" to 5/8" thick material, Use 6 Hook to cut 3/8" to 2" thick material, Use 4 Hook to cut 3/4" to 4-1/2" thick material, Use 3 Hook to cut 1" to 6" thick material, Use 2 Hook to cut 2" to 12" thick material, NOTE: The owner's manual of some woodcutting bandsaw may stipulate that it can cut metal, but woodcutting bandsaws can only cut non-ferrous metals, such as aluminum, brass, copper, etc. Cutting steel could damage your saw, due to the fact that blade speed on most woodcutting bandsaws (average 800 to 3500 fpm) is not slow enough (40 to 200 fpm) for cutting ferrous metals (i.e. steel). Trying to cut steel at woodcutting speeds will ruin the blade due to extreme heat produced. There may be a number of other bandsaws or models that use the same blade lengths as the ones listed: 70-1/2 inch ( 5 ft. 10-1/2 inch, 5' 10-1/2" ) bandsaw blades suit the following models: Craftsman 10" 921400; Atlas Workshop 9360, 912; Rikon 10-305;
