Description of πͺ Starrett Duratec Carbon Regular Neutral Cutting Tools: Precision and Durability for Efficient Cutting
Carbon steel blade is designed for cutting aluminum, other nonferrous metals, and wood. Good for contour and straight cuts on a variety of machines. Flexible back for resisting breakage when making curved cuts. Regular tooth design with neutral rake angle for general-purpose and light-duty cutting. Wavy set helps prevent stripping for cutting thin workpieces.
My analysis of this band saw blade showed that it offers exceptional durability and precision cutting, making it a top choice for those in need of reliable tools. The sleek design and high-quality materials used in its construction ensure consistent performance and reduced downtime. However, the cost may be higher than some other options on the market.
I cut aluminum and brass and sometimes steel. This blade cuts just as well as anything I use. Better than some. The best blades cut about the same. I would rate this blade as the "best".[.]
I used this blade several times before this last job. On this job, I made 40 cuts in 1/4" x 5" flat stock. I measured the first few contractions in just over 4 minutes. After 15 cuts I got another cut and still the same. I didn't really clock last time, but I know it would have been very short if it had taken longer!
