Versatix MP M42  

A structural cutting revolution  

Powerband Emperor band saw blade

Developed and tested by Starrett with a patent application pending, Versatix MP M42 multi purpose band saw blades set new standards in cutting structural steels, sections, tubes and small solids.  The new tooth design ensures that the blades can easily cope with the shock loading conditions associated with intermittent cutting and the uncontrolled feed rates on manual, pull down band saw machines.

Features and Benefits:

  • Electron beam welded bi-metal construction.  
  • Triple tempered M42 cobalt high speed steel teeth, 67-69 Rockwell C Hardness.  
  • Fatigue resistant alloy steel backing strip.
  • New tooth design resulting in a massive increase in tooth strength and consequent reduction in tooth strippage. 
  • Also ideal for use on small manual pull down band saw machines where uncontrolled feed rates can easily overload the teeth on a standard blade.
