Lâminas bimetálicas M42
Bi-Metal blades are incredibly effective at cutting through notoriously hard or abrasive material, like metals with a hardness maximum of 50 on the Rockwell C scale. Simmons’ Bi-Metal blades are no exception.
Utilizing a 4% chromium alloy backing and specially hardened M42 high-speed steel tooth tips, these blades can easily withstand the intense stress exerted upon them by high-production bandsaw machines. Bi-Metal M42 blades also last about 3-4 times longer than regular carbon steel bandsaw blades due to their harder teeth, resulting in less machine downtime from changing blades and a reduced cost per cut.
Recommended cutting applications for Bi-Metal M42 blades:
- Steel
- Stainless steel
- Space age alloys
- Hard woods
- Pallets
Consistently delivering high-quality blades has been key to Simmons’ success throughout the years. As part of our reliable welds guarantee, if a Simmons blade breaks at the weld, just send it back to us. While we cannot guarantee that we will replace Bi-Metal M42 blades, we’ll evaluate the issue and reweld the blade if possible.
Nós garantimos a qualidade do nosso trabalho e, mesmo quando não somos responsáveis por problemas com as lâminas, frequentemente investimos na análise da causa da falha para orientar nossos clientes e ajudá-los a corrigir a origem do problema em suas instalações.
Standard Tooth
A standard tooth has a 0° cutting angle. It’s ideal for cutting steel with a high carbon content, small cross sections of steel, and thin-walled profiles and tubes.

Hook Tooth
The hook tooth’s 10° positive cutting angle makes it the perfect choice for cutting through solid steel, thick-walled tubes, and higher alloy metals.

Varitooth
The varitooth has a normal tooth shape with 0° cutting angle, however the pitch (distance between teeth) varies. For example, a 5/8 varitooth blade will have alternating sections of 5 TPI and 8 TPI. This helps reduce vibrations when you are cutting larger cross-sections of material.
