Good day, thank you for your inquiry. Length 1490 - do you have a wood or metal bandsaw? According to the band length, it looks like a table saw for wood. If it is a wood bandsaw, unfortunately you cannot cut steel with it, because the band speed would be too high and the teeth on the band would break quickly. For cutting metals, a speed about 10 times lower is needed, i.e. 40-90 meters/minute! (Wood bandsaws have about 900 m/minute). (Note: by reducing the speed with a frequency converter, you would lose the necessary power and the band would stop). On a wood bandsaw, for example, aluminum, plastics, pertinax, etc. could be cut.
When choosing the tooth pitch, the higher the TPI number, the smaller the teeth (smaller pitch). If you had a metal bandsaw, a pitch of 4 TPI (short for teeth per inch) means 4 teeth per inch. The pitch between the teeth is therefore 25.4:4 = 6.35 mm. These are too large teeth, such a pitch (4TPI) is only for solid logs with a diameter of 50 mm. For sheet metal and profiles with a wall thickness up to 2 mm, we recommend fine teeth, e.g. 10/14 TPI.
Regarding the choice of saw blade for hardwood, I approve it with the fact that the blade you have chosen - 4 TPI pitch - is ideal for a cutting depth of 20-80 mm. I recommend trying coarser teeth TPI 3 or finer TPI 6, so you can evaluate it better. You have certainly looked at the article CHOICE OF SAW BLADE TOOTH PITCH FOR WOOD.
Thank you, Regards Pavel Dudr
Hello, yes, you can use a 1140 mm long band saw blade even if the original length is 1141 mm. The tensioning of the band has a range of a few millimeters, so such a difference is not a problem. In addition, band saw blades are produced with a tolerance of approximately 1 tooth pitch, which is completely standard. You can also order a suitable band saw blade via our configurator: https://www.dudrsaw.eu/band-saw-blade-configurator-for-metal/1140

Good morning, for cutting stainless steel, I recommend the EPIC GP 13x0.65 mm blade, which is universal for both common steel and stainless steel.
Special blades for stainless steel are produced only from 27 mm width (e.g. XP or Siclone). I also recommend initially running in the blade on solid common steel and using cooling or at least lubrication, for example with WD spray oil.
Best regards, Pavel Dudr
Hello, for the Cormak G5010B saw, a band saw blade of 1470 x 13 x 0.65 mm should be suitable.
We recommend the EPIC GP metal band saw blade, which you can find here: https://www.dudrsaw.eu/band-saw-blade-configurator-for-metal/1470/13-x-0-65
We recommend testing the tooth pitch based on the dimensions of the material you are cutting – the most popular are TPI 8/12, TPI 10/14, and TPI 6/10. TPI 4 – for solid materials with a diameter of approximately 40–80 mm
Kind regards, The Dudr Saw Team
Dear Brane, for the Parkside PMB 1100 model, we offer a blade with the finest teeth in the TPI 14/18 version with a blade thickness of 0.5 mm.
You can find it here: click to view.
Best regards Dudr Saw
Good morning, thank you for your question. EPIC GP band saw blades can also be used dry, without coolant. However, the blade life will probably be shorter compared to use with cooling, as the blade's cutting edge does not tolerate the high temperatures generated during cutting well. However, many of our customers use the blades without cooling. Best regards, Dudr Saw Team
Hello, you can choose here https://www.dudrsaw.hr/tracna-pila/bs125m
Good day, you primarily have a wood saw, so you will have to reckon with certain difficulties.
For metals, look for an EPIC blade and get 14tpi or 10/14 teeth
Good afternoon, thank you for your inquiry.
We have added recommended saw blades for the Parkside PMB 1100 C3 bandsaw (link here). Ideally, about 10 teeth in the cut, meaning for solid material 30-50 I would recommend a blade with a pitch of 6/10 TPI (i.e. 8 teeth per inch - variable pitch - alternating sizes from 6 TPI to 10 TPI)
here is the link: Metal saw blade 1140/13x0.65/6/10
Wishing you a nice day, the Simonds team
What is the recommended cutting speed.
Thank you.
