Abstract
A metal cutting bandsaw blade includes a strip and a recurring group of teeth projecting therefrom. The recurring group of teeth has a setting pattern and a height pattern. The setting pattern has at least three units selected from the following setting types: PA1 (a) unset teeth PA1 (b) teeth set to the right PA1 (c) teeth set to the left. The setting pattern includes at least one of each of the setting types. The height pattern has at least two selected from the following height types: PA1 (a) high teeth PA1 (b) low teeth. The height pattern includes at least one of each of the height types. The total number of teeth in the recurring group is the product of the number of setting units and the number of heights units. The number of setting units is incommensurable with the number of height units. The number of teeth set to the right in the recurring group is equal to the number of teeth set to the left. All of the set teeth in the group have substantially equal setting widths.
