TPI selection is arguably the most important decision when selecting a band saw blade. That’s why Dakin-Flathers have created this useful bandsaw teeth per inch chart. The number of TPI defines the pitch of the blade and can vary from 1 to 32 TPI. On some bandsaw blades there are different pitches on the same blade referred to as Vari-Pitch. A coarse tooth blade (2, 3 TPI) should be used for re-sawing wood and cutting thicker stock up to 8″ thick. A fine toothed blade (18 to 32 TPI) should be used for thinner metals and plastics under 1/4″. For general cutting of 3/4″ plywood 4 TPI will provide a fast cut and 14 TPI . Whether they are working with a table saw, band saw, circular saw, or jigsaw, most woodworkers are always seeking a kind of holy grain when it comes to finding saw blades that offer the smoothest, best cuts possible. Woodworkers quickly learn that the number of teeth-per-inch (TPI) on the blade has a big impact on the quality of a cut.
