M42 Bi-Metal Bandsaw Blades

Developed and tested by Starrett, with a patent application pending, Versatix MP 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 manual 'pull down' band saw machines with uncontrolled feed rates.
• New tooth design with massive inherent tooth strength makes blade
ideal for cutting sections, structurals, tubes and small solids.
• Also ideal for use on manual ‘pull down' band saw machines where
the uncontrolled feed rate can easily overload the teeth on a standard
blade.
• Triple tempered M42 cobalt high speed steel teeth.
Versatix MP has been extensively tested against leading competitive
products in a range of cutting situations and results concluded that
Versatix MP outperformed all competitive blades tested by a
minimum of 20%!

Versatix MP Welded Loops

For a wide range of materials. Keeps its edge in long-run, intricate contouring jobs. Regular tooth (constant pitch) is recommended for the cutting of solids AND irregular shapes. Variable tooth form works best when machine conditions are not ideal.

Marlco Litecut Keyway Push Broaches

Manufactured to BS4235;Part 1:1972 (normal fit Js9) and DIN6885 for Metric sizes, and BS46;Part 1:1958(1985) for Inch sizes. Precision made from high speed steel and simple to use with minimal set-up. The cutting geometry will suit most materials. Push broaches are designed for use in hand-operated or hydraulic mandrel presses, depending on load. Load per tooth, given in the tables, is based on a UTS of 400N/mm2 (approx. 25 tons/sq in). For other materials, adjust accordingly. It is important that broaches are reground when blunt and before damage occurs to the teeth. The use of cutting fluid is essential, and for steel, an oil with high pressure additives is recommended. Keyways from 2mm to 25mm width and bore diameters of 6mm to 95mm are possible. Both parallel and taper keyways can be cut by using the appropriate guide. Broach style L2 and L2M require the use of an extension shank which should be ordered separately. The shims specified for standard depth keyways can be adjusted to suit particular applications. Parallel broaches are listed and supplied as standard. Broaches for taper keyways are available to order.

For all dimensional and technical specifications please refer to our catalogue.
