An M42 Bi-Metal blade gives you the toughness to power through reclaimed timber, nail-embedded boards, dense hardwoods, and abrasive engineered materials without constantly stopping for blade changes.
When cutting wood in real-world conditions, material quality isn’t always predictable. Nails, dense grain, engineered boards, and mixed materials can quickly wear out standard blades.
M42 Variable Pitch Positive Rake band saw blades are designed to handle demanding cutting environments. The cobalt-alloy tooth edge maintains sharpness longer, while the variable pitch tooth pattern reduces vibration for smoother cutting and improved finish. Compared with carbon steel flexback blades, M42 blades offer significantly longer service life and fewer production interruptions.
For workshops where uptime, consistency, and durability matter, M42 blades deliver dependable cutting performance shift after shift.
