Tooth Selection Per Inch
You must select the correct teeth per inch (TPI) for the thickness of the material you intend to cut. If the correct TPI is not chosen, the lifespan of the band saw blade will be drastically reduced. TPI selection is undoubtedly the most important decision when selecting a band saw blade.
The number of TPI defines the blade pitch and can vary from 1 to 32 TPI. In some band saw blades, there are different pitches on the same blade, called "Vari-Pitch". TPI is measured from gullet to gullet, not from tooth tip to tooth tip - this is known as pitch.
The general rule is:
• For wood and soft materials, choose 3 - 6 teeth.
• For metals and harder materials, look for 6 to 24 teeth.
Some things to note:
• Few teeth can harm the work and break them.
• Many teeth can cause gullet overload and break the teeth.
Use the band saw blade teeth per inch chart below to select the ideal TPI for your project needs.
