Every figure below is a manufacturer specification read off the listing itself. The judgments are ours.

What the specification says

2,360 × 13 × 0.65 mm (92.9 × 0.51 × 0.03 in), 6 teeth per inch, standard set, three per pack. The manufacturer names the Scheppach Basato 3 Vario as an example machine and describes the blades as suitable for hardwood and softwood.

Length is a dimension of the machine

Band length is fixed by the wheel spacing and the tension travel of the saw. It is printed in the manual and usually on a plate on the machine itself. A band a centimeter out will not tension, and nothing on the saw will rescue it. Width and tooth pitch are choices you make; length is not one of them.

Buying in threes

Bands are consumables. They blunt, they get kinked on the way off the wheels, and they eventually break at the weld. A pack of three costs less per blade than one bought at a time and removes the day of downtime that a single blade guarantees.

Availability

No such listing: the American Amazon shop answers the reference with a search box rather than a page.

Read from Keepa on the day this page was last revised; stock and price both move without notice.

What comes up most often

How do I check the length my saw needs?

Read it from the manual or the plate on the machine, not from a forum post about the same model — manufacturers change wheel spacing between production runs. If both are missing, measure the blade currently fitted by laying it flat and running a tape round the inside. Getting this wrong wastes the whole purchase, because a band cannot be shortened at home.

Is 13 mm (0.51 in) too wide for curves?

For tight ones, yes. Blade width sets the smallest radius the band can follow, because the back of the blade has to swing inside its own kerf. Thirteen millimeters is a straight-cutting and resawing width; if you want to cut shapes, that is a second, narrower blade rather than a compromise on this one.
