Starrett Versatix MP bandsaw blades cut faster for longer
Designed for cutting structural steel profiles such as RSJ, I-beams, C-sections, tubes, channels and small solids, Versatix MP bi-metal bandsaw blades from LS Starrett feature a newly developed tooth design that is said to result in an increase in tooth strength and, consequently, a reduction in tooth stripping.
The company says that the blades can cope with the shock-loading conditions associated with intermittent cutting, making the blade suitable for manual 'pull down' bandsaws and associated uncontrolled feed rates.
The profile of the blades has a variable rake all the way down the tooth to reduce vibration, as well as a shallow gullet to lower noise levels and prevent the chipping and stripping teeth.
Available in widths from 19 to 54 mm, Versatix MP bandsaw blades are produced from triple-tempered M42 cobalt high speed steel teeth, combined with a fatigue- resistant alloy steel backing strip.
