t b: width of blade s: thickness of blade h: gullet depth α: rake angle γ: clearance angle Types of Set The set is the tilt, or angle, given to the teeth of the saw blade to provide clearance for the blade body and the tooth edges. Below are different types of set: Raker Set In the raker set, one tooth is set to the left, one tooth is set to the right, and one tooth (raker) is unset. This set type is used on most evenly pitched blades such as regular and hook. It is also used for contour and friction cutting blades on vertical bandsaw machines. Combo Set In the combo set, used on combo toothed...

Structural steel, machining steel Structural...

Tooth pitch for solid workpieces Cutting pipes and profiles The diagram will help you to select the right pitch for cutting solids. The ideal choice is at the widest point of each field. The diagram on the left will help you find the correct tooth pitch for cutting pipes and profiles. The recommended tooth pitch for cutting profiles is found in the field where the width meets the wall thickness of the profile. Example 1: When cutting a Ø 150 mm (6 inch) bar, use a 2/3 TPI or a 1.4/2 TPI if you choose a variably pitched blade. Use 2 TPI, if an evenly pitched blade is your choice. Example 2: If...

On horizontal machines, the band width is dependent upon the bandsaw machine being used. There is, however, some variation possible on vertical machines. For contour sawing, the blade should be as wide as the machine permits, but still narrow enough so that it...
