Tooth Types Set

Blade with 3, 4, 6, 8 Teeth (TPI) are always Hook. Blade with 10 or More teeth are always Raker.

Hook is an excellent positive angle tooth design for fast cutting of thicker materials such as wood, plastics, and soft metals.

Skip is available in limited sizes, but works well on thick cutting of paper and wood products. It fealures widely spaced teeth with a zero degree tooth angle.

Raker (also called 'Standard") is a good general purpose tooth design wth a zero degree tooth angle. It works well on structural shapes and thinner materials in wood and metal.

Cutting with Carbon Tool Steel Bandsaw Blades:

Soft metals (such as aluminum, copper, and brass) are cut at speeds of 200 to 1000 fpm, as long as a good release agent is used on the blade to keep the metal from sticking in the blade gullets. Plastics are generally cut at slower blade speeds (200 to 800 fpm) to keep the plastic from melting back together behind the blade as it cuts.

NOTE: all cutting should follow the simple rule of no less than 2 teeth in contact with the cut at all times, while not allowinq more than approximately 10 teeth to contact the cut. Any fewer than 2 teeth in confact can allow ihe materialio drop into the gullet of the blade, causing teeth to shear off. Allowing more than approximately 10 teeth to contact the cut can cause the teeth to not remove the waste effectively and can cause binding in the cut and also damage the teeth and set.
