Sterling® band saw blades offer the MACH 12™ line which have a 10% cobalt M51 steel cutting edge with a (69 - 70 RC) hardness. This creates excellent heat and abrasion resistance. The high chrome steel tempered backing allows for a longer tool life and higher satisfaction of performance. The aggressive 12° positive rake varied pitch tooth cuts faster and penetrates hard materials with ease. 

The MACH 12™ line is a perfect choice for applications that involve solid or heavy walled exotic materials that have hardening or abrasive characteristics such as:

*Inconel

*Hasteloy

*Titanium

*Nickle Alloys

*Chrome-Moly

*Stainless Steel & Tool and Die Steels
