Carbide Tipped Band Saw Blades



The L.S. Starrett Company offers Advanz MC7 carbide band saw blades for high productivity and longer life when cutting hard materials. The Advanz MC7 utilizes a progressive four-tooth grind that creates seven distinct chips.

"The end result is less wear when compared to blades with conventional triple chip tooth formation," said a company spokesperson. "The four-tooth grind is very effective on nickel alloys, stainless and tough-to-cut tool and heat-treated steels."

The Advanz MC7 features exclusive Starrett tooth geometry, which has a progressively ground trapezoidal tool design and positive rake angle. The blade is made of sub-micron grain carbide (HV1600). Advanz MC7 blades offer precision cuts for an improved surface finish and provide excellent cost-per-cut for production sawing, according to the company. Exclusive Starrett edge preparation minimizes micro chipping.

Advanz MC7 band saw blades are suited for solids and bundles of solids. Blades are offered in multiple sizes in widths from 1-1/4" to 2-5/8" (34 mm to 67 mm) and thicknesses from .042" to .063" (1.10 mm to 1.60 mm).
