Bandsaw Blade Efficiently Cuts Aluminum, Other Nonferrous Metals



The new Bahco 3860-TCA Unset Carbide Blade is engineered to add efficiency and extended blade life when cutting aluminum and other nonferrous metals, including copper and copper alloys.

The 3860-TCA blade is designed to perform under tough conditions and meet the rigorous demands for high-speed, high-feed, and high-efficiency cutting in various sectors and tasks.

"Featuring a multichip unset tooth design with tooth and gullet geometry, these blades deliver a premium surface finish and allow cutting to tight tolerances," said a company spokesperson. "Its special carbide grade and fatigue-resistant backing material ensure maximum blade life and high cutting performance in demanding environments. Additionally, the teeth are designed to produce thin chips that can be easily vacuumed away for clean, efficient, and safe operation."

Minimizing vibration and maintaining surface quality have also been central to the development and engineering of this product. With cutting speeds of up to 10,000 surface feet per minute and feedrates of up to 4.1 in/min., 3860-TCA blades help ensure precise edges and effective chip removal. This innovation makes the Bahco 3860-TCA blade range a suitable option for demanding cutting applications, and it is compatible with horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines.

Features and benefits of the 3860-TCA Unset Carbide Blades include:

  • Specially designed blades for cutting aluminum blocks, billets and castings at high speed
  • Multichip unset tooth design for quality surface finish
  • Special carbide grade blade allow for cutting tight tolerances and increasing blade life.
