Starrett has broken the boundaries of bi-metal bonding technology. Conventional bi-metal blades use either electron beam or laser to weld the high-speed wire to the alloy backing material. Starrett innovation has developed a state-of-the-art process that resulted in a new generation of better performing band saw blades.

This Starrett exclusive technology joins two strips of high-speed steel wires to the backing steel using a Solid-State Diffusion Bonding. This exciting new process creates a stronger, longer lasting blade.

After initial use, the teeth develop a groove in the softer backing material, altering the blade area engaged in the cut. This creates Multi-Edge Performance. As a result, two chips are generated that are easily removed from the cut and also allows more coolant to flow to the cutting area.
