Tooth Shape guide
Regular is a standard tooth shape
with 0˚ rake angle. Regular is the
traditional tooth shape for general
cutting of small, solid workpieces.
Positive PS has a 10˚-15˚ rake angle,
a curved back and a gullet with large
chip capacity. It is excellent for cutting
large workpieces of all types of steel.
Triple Set Xtra, with high/low, 3 tooth
pattern designed to give maximum chip
clearance and even chip load. This
blade with 10° rake is ideal for cutting
large difficult, abrasive materials.
Combo tooth shape is similar to
Regular. It is suitable for multi-purpose
cutting of thin-walled tubes and profiles
in most materials.
With its advanced design and Positive PS
teeth,
Combo PS
has optimum gullet capac-
ity and is the ideal tooth shape for production
cutting, especially of alloyed steels.
Carbide Triple Set Xtra, Combo
same as the standard triple set xtra, but
with advantage of combo pitches to give
smoother, cutting action, low vibrations.
Combo PR, with a 5-10° rake angle,
and is mainly used on medium sized
to large workpieces when vibration
may occur.
Combo LK is a low kerf, combo
design to provide low vibration, long
life and good surface finish in multi-
purpose cutting applications. Available
in 3856-SANDFLEX
®
Multi-cut range.
Combo LZ is a low kerf, zero rake
combo design available in 4/6 TPI. It
provides a zero rake option within the
3856-SANDFLEX
®
Multi-cut range.
Specifically designed for difficult to cut
shapes, sections, tubes and bundles.
Combo PHG is a patented ground tooth shape with
positive rake angle designed for good penetration of large
sections of tough-to-cut alloys and workhardening materials.
Combo PSG is a new ground tooth shape with positive
rake angle. It is the ideal tooth shape for production cutting
meduim to large sections of a wide range of materials and
especially on alloyed and stainless steels.
Non-ferrous Cutting (Evenly pitched)
The tooth shapes have different rake angles, clearance angles and gullet depths. This makes each tooth shape suitable for a
specific application.
Hook has sharp teeth with 10˚ rake angle and shallow
gullets. It is used for cutting non-ferrous metals, wood
and plastics.
Carbide Triple Set with high/low, 3 tooth pattern maximum
clearance, and even chip loads. This tooth shape is ideal for
use on non ferrous alloys found in the foundry industry.
Metal Cutting (Ground profile info)
Advanced tooth design of ground bandsaw blades will give, in combination with precise setting, superior surface finish and
extended tool life.
Metal Cutting (Variably pitched)
These tooth shapes should be used when there is a risk of vibration when cutting tubes, profiles and bundles. Generally, multi-
purpose blades are variably pitched.
Metal Cutting (Evenly pitched)
The tooth shapes have different rake angles, clearance angles and gullet depths. This makes each tooth shape suitable for a
specific application.
