TECWERK Metal Bandsaw Blade 687 × 13 × 0.51 mm – HSS M42, variable tooth pitch 14–18

The TECWERK Metal Bandsaw Blade 687 × 13 × 0.51 mm HSS M42 is a durable bimetal saw blade designed for versatile metal cutting tasks, from profiles and tubes to tool and stainless steels in vibration-prone operations.

• HSS M42 bimetal for high wear resistance
• Variable tooth pitch 14–18 teeth per inch
• Size: 687 × 13 × 0.51 mm for standard bandsaws
• Suitable for profile, tube and thin-walled sections

Consistent cutting quality across mixed materials

The HSS M42 bimetal construction combines a hard cutting edge with a flexible backing, providing improved wear resistance and a long service life under continuous use. This design reduces blade fatigue during demanding shifts and maintains cutting geometry longer than simple high-speed steel blades. The result is steadier kerf widths and fewer interruptions to production.

Flexibility through variable tooth pitch for tailored performance

A variable tooth pitch minimises vibration and chatter when cutting different material sections. The blade offers 14–18 teeth per inch, which is particularly effective for small- to medium-section profiles and tubes. For customers working with mixed batches, this variability translates into fewer blade changes and more predictable cycle times, improving throughput on small- to mid-size workpieces.

Application-specific recommendations for optimised cutting

Recommended pitch options are provided for distinct tasks: pitches 5/8, 6/10, 8/12, 10/14 and 14/18 with a 0° rake angle are excellent for vibration-prone sawing and for profile and tube cuts with thinner walls. Pitches 3/4 and 4/6 with a positive rake angle support higher material removal rates for normal, tool and high-speed steels, as well as non-ferrous metals. These guidelines aid correct blade selection for defined production goals.

Practical benefits for workshop and production use

With dimensions of 687 × 13 × 0.51 mm, the blade fits common metal bandsaws and is supplied in a pack quantity of five, enabling quick replacement cycles. The combination of a bimetal cutting edge and variable pitch makes the blade a pragmatic choice for workshops seeking a balance of longevity and cutting versatility while keeping machine downtime to a minimum.

FAQ

Which materials can this bandsaw blade cut effectively?
The TECWERK metal bandsaw blade in HSS M42 quality is suitable for tool steels, construction steels, stainless steels and many non-ferrous metals, with specific tooth-pitch options optimised for different materials.

How does the variable tooth pitch help in production?
Variable tooth pitch reduces vibration and improves chip evacuation when cutting mixed-section workpieces; the 14–18 teeth-per-inch range is ideal for small to medium profiles and tubes.

What are the recommended pitch and rake-angle combinations?
Recommended options include 5/8, 6/10, 8/12, 10/14 and 14/18 with a 0° rake angle for vibration-prone and thin-walled sections; 3/4 and 4/6 with a positive rake angle for higher cutting performance.

Is the blade suitable for vibration-prone sawing operations?
Yes, the HSS M42 bimetal construction and variable pitch make this blade particularly suitable for vibration-prone sawing, especially for profile and tube cuts of small to medium wall thickness.

What packaging is provided for supply and maintenance planning?
This TECWERK metal bandsaw blade is supplied in packs of five, facilitating planned blade changes and stock management.
