Imachinist S933414 M42 93 X 3/4 X 10/14tpi Bi-Metal Metal Cutting Band Saw Blades

Works very well for our metal cutting needs.

Blades seems to be of good quality, havent used it enough yet to comment on longevity, but it seems like a good value so far.

I use to cut aluminum and plastics, good quality saw.

It did what its supposed to do I bought these before they work well and I get them shipped quick

This blade is great. It cuts through metal quickly and was much better than the original blade that was on my saw. I will be buying more!

I bought this to cut metal on my older 14 Jet bandsaw that I have added the 3-speed pulley set to. Blade cuts aluminum fine, and would cut steel with some cutting lubrication. Unfortunately, there is a wobble in the blade of about .05, which makes operation very uneven. Poor quality control is the likely issue, as others have reported a similar problem. I have upgraded the rating to 4 stars as I have received excellent service from the vendor. He sent a replacement 6/10 blade after I told him I was cutting aluminum. The second blade was much straighter and cut the aluminum quickly and the resulting cut was easy to de-bur. Finally, many common 14-in band saws need a 93-1/2 inch blade rather than a 93 inch blade. That was my mistake (and Amazons wretched search engine). Fortunately, I have added a quick change lever to my saw and the adjustment range was adequate to allow use of the 93 inch blade.

The best ever used! Long lasting

Been running this blade for about a month now in a small fab shop cutting mostly heavy wall DOM and 4140. It is holding up well to daily use. Only bad I have to say about it is that it does not run as smooth as a more expensive name brand blade. Having said that I believe it is a good blade and will order again when needed. I will update again if need be but I figure I have already gotten my money out of this one. 9-17-20 update. Blade finally broke. I ordered two more:) 12-6-22 update. This blade has become my go to. I changed 4 stars to 5 stars. For the money it cant be beat

03/14/22 Addendum: The seller contacted me after seeing my less than flattering reviews. We went back and fourth and they worked with me to try to find a blade better suited for the work I am doing. The Imachinist blade P/N X0023G3F2P is 24 TPI. They sent me one to try. I have cut a few items, and I am happy to say it seems to be doing the trick! It works fine. But if you cut anything hard, it would need to be on a machine with coolant. I have bought a number of the I Machinist brand. I always buy the bi-metal blades. I finally figured out that they say for soft metal such as aluminum and brass in the fine print. I have geared my saw WAAAAAAAAAAAY down to a crawl, and use lots of lube and it works fine for my home use. I still avoid cutting any steel if at all possible!

Delivery was as promised. Well packaged- simple, no hassle, protected but not overdone with unnecessary and excess materials. Was impressed by the tooth guard- a plastic channel that fit over the tooth side of the blade. First Ive seen this on a purchased blade from anywhere. Blade installed on the bandsaw with no issues. Cut about a dozen pieces of angle iron and steel box tubing using continuous coolant on the blade. It cut true and silent with no wave fluctuation (teeth raising off piece due to blade warpage). So far I have to say great value for the money. Could not rate longevity because dont have that much time on it, but barring any unexpected issues will definitely buy again when a replacement is needed.
