This carbide tipped bandsaw blade is designed with precision triple chip ground teeth for smooth cuts and an excellent finish. The new high performance steel back offers excellent fatigue life. A carbide tipped blade outlasts carbon steel and bi-metal blades when cutting abrasive non-ferrous materials, wood; especially tropical hardwoods i.e. ebony, koa or cocabolo. When using a metal cutting bandsaw, it is also ideal to cut ferrous metal materials at least 1 inch thick, i.e. alloy steels, tool steels, bearing steel, carbon steels, stainless steels, and mold steels. Magnate carbide tipped bandsaw blades application notes: 1) To cut up to 6" (taller if fed slow) wood or 1” – 4” steel : Use blades of 1/2" wide x 3 TPI, 3/4" wide x 3 TPI, or 1” wide x 3 TPI. 2) To cut up to 6" (taller if fed slow) wood or 3” – 11” steel : Use blades of 1" wide x 2-3 variable tooth or 1-1/4" wide x 2-3 variable tooth. 3) To cut up to 4" (taller if fed slow) wood or 1” – 6” steel : use blades of 1-1/4" wide x 3-4 variable tooth; 4) To cut wood up to 3" and taller : Use blades of 1" wide x 1.3 TPI. ( for Woodcutting Only ) 5) To cut wood 2" to 6” : Use blades of 1" wide x 2 TPI. ( for Woodcutting Only ). All Magnate bandsaw blades are welded and fabricated in the USA. The coils/material are USA brands but may not be made in the USA. All band saw blades’ pictures depict a general bandsaw blade and thus may look different from each particular item. Warning: For packaging purposes, this blade is folded into a coiled position which is similar to a spring and may pop open when being coiled or uncoiled. Wear heavy duty leather gloves and eye/body protection while using extreme care when coiling or uncoiling a blade. Failure to exercise the proper care could result in serious bodily injury. See your bandsaw owner's manual for further safety instructions. Please refer to your owner's/operation manual to make sure the bla
