This bimetal band saw blade was welded by an electron beam under high vacuum to attach a strip of high-speed M2 teeth. The variable pitch design combines regular teeth of different pitches, gullet depths, and set angles for improved cutting and durability. Primarily used for cutting steel, this superior blade can also be used on nonferrous materials and wood, handle solid and interrupted cutting (such as tubing), and provide lower cost per cut on the toughest sawing jobs.
