Simonds International A8 BroadBand 64364908 Band Saw Blade Coil Stock, 1 in W x 0.035 in THK, 5 to 8 TPI, Bi-Metal Blade, 250 ft L Coil, M42 HSS Tooth

A8 BroadBand bi-metal band saw blades cover the broadest cutting applications and cut the broadest material ranges to reduce the number of costly blade type changeovers by operators. From production cutting to general purpose use, A8 BroadBand bi-metal band saw blades from Simonds International international provide a high-performance, longer-lasting cutting experience. The A8 BroadBand band saw blades were developed for production cutting applications yet are perfectly suitable for everyday shop applications. Band saw machines are often required to cut a myriad of materials during a single day requiring blade type changeovers and are often run by multiple operators with different degrees of experience. A8 BroadBand band saw blades are robust and highly durable to reduce cutting application variables. A8 BroadBand band saw blades employ a breakthrough formula in tooth spacing design to prolong wear while cutting through the widest possible variety of materials. The balanced and repositioned tooth design combined with a special raker tooth delivers a more consistent wear across the blade over time to last longer. This revolutionary A8 technology is featured on all Simonds International bi-metal blades.
