Thicker pieces of metal obviously require stronger, more durable blades to cut through; you also need to take into consideration the teeth on your blade; some teeth are better suited for cutting straight and others are for curves as well as the quality.

Characteristics which determine high durability of metal cutting bandsaw blades when purchasing in bulk. 

There are various different types of bandsaw blade characteristics that make it possible to obtain bandsaw blades with extremely high durability when buying them in bulk. The type of material is the first place that you will need to look, the majority of bandsaw blades that are purchased in bulk for cutting metal are either high speed steel (HSS) or bi-metal blades, the strength and durability of steel in metal cutting bandsaw blades is exceptional and the Bi-metal variety blends two types of metal to produce a bandsaw blade with extreme levels of toughness as well as being very flexible and resistant to breaking. The teeth of your metal cutting bandsaw blade should be sharp and even spaced appropriately. Fine toothed blades are used for cutting metals with finer edges, whereas stronger, larger toothed bandsaw blades can more efficiently cut through much thicker and tougher pieces of metal, whether the teeth are raker, standard, or hooked is of importance for the efficiency of your cut as well as how smoothly it will be. How many teeth per inch (TPI) your bandsaw blade has will determine whether your cut is smooth or rough; higher TPI will result in a finer cut, while lower TPI means you will get quicker, but rougher cuts. Thicker bandsaw blades are used for much harder jobs. Coated metal cutting bandsaw blades can also be of extreme quality because the coating reduces the heat produced from friction, extending the lifespan of the blade; SWEAT offer durable, quality bandsaw blades. 

How to make precise cuts with bandsaw blades? 

When looking to get perfectly precise bandsaw blades you need to ensure that you are using the correct bandsaw blade for your cut as it will determine the type of finish that you will get as well as how clean and accurate the cut is. Soft metals are generally cut much faster with fewer teeth per inch whereas harder steels can be cut slower and with a higher number of teeth per inch as steel can be brittle and could snap otherwise. You need to consider band saw speed, and this should vary depending on the material, it can obviously melt if cut too fast but if it is too slow then the material will not be cut properly and can get chipped instead of being cut. Band saw blade tension should be calibrated so that you have not got a blade that is too loose or too tight, otherwise you will have a problem, too much will break the band saw blade, too little and it will either flex or wander as you cut. If your band saw blade is installed properly, the blade should run straight. Maintenance is key so try and keep your blade clean and replace it as soon as it becomes too blunt and worn out as you will certainly notice a difference. SWEAT bandsaw blades are designed to keep sharp and give a perfectly accurate cut.
