Raker set · 0,46 mm (0.02 in) thin
AYAO 93-1/2 × 3/8 in, 6 TPI, 2 pack
Eighteen thousandths of an inch — the thinnest band here, which needs less tension and takes a tighter curve than anything else at this length.

Every figure below names its source. Each one is a manufacturer
specification read off the listing itself. The judgments are ours.
Eighteen thousandths
The thinnest band on this shelf, and the reason to choose it.
A thinner band bends round the wheel more easily, so it runs true at lower
tension — which matters on a light frame whose trunnions flex before the band is
tight. It takes a tighter radius at the same width, because the back edge is
worked less hard. And it fatigues its weld less on every revolution, which is
where band saw blades actually fail.
What it costs is stiffness. Under side pressure a thin band deflects, so a resaw
on a deep board wanders where a thicker one holds.
The POWERTEC listings on this shelf publish 0.025 in on two of four pages, and
nothing on the other two.
Three dimensions, in one bullet
Length, width and thickness together: 93 1/2 inch long, 3/8 inch wide, 0.018
inch thick.
No other listing on the American half of this shelf does that in one line. Four
of the eight publish two dimensions and leave the third out.
Length first, everything else second
A band saw blade is a closed loop, and the loop has one length.
Too short and it will not reach round both wheels. Too long and the tension
spring runs out of travel before the band is tight. There is no adjustment and
no adapter: the number stamped on the saw is the number to buy.
Every listing on this shelf says so in its own words, and three of them say it
twice. It is the only compatibility question that cannot be worked around.
Raker set
Left, right, straight, left, right, straight — every third tooth unset, running
down the middle of the kerf and clearing it.
It is the general-purpose set: reasonable in every direction, reasonably flat
face. The Timber Wolf on this shelf names an alternate set instead, where every
tooth leans and none runs straight — faster, coarser.
Three of the eight American listings here name their set. This is one.
And no steel at all
Not carbon, not alloy, not bi-metal.
Every other listing on this shelf names something: high grade carbon steel on
the four POWERTEC pages, high silicon low carbide on the two Timber Wolf, M42
bi-metal on the WIKUS.
What this page names instead is the weld — a unique welding technique, strong
and smoother. The weld is where a band breaks, so it is not the wrong thing to
talk about. It is not the steel.
