CUTTING APPLICATION
Food Processing
Meat and bone band saw blades are used for fresh meat, frozen meat, bone-in cuts, bones, butcher shops, and food-processing machines.

Common band saw blade parameters
The common order format is length × width × thickness × TPI × quantity. The table is a selection reference; final specifications are confirmed from the machine, material, workpiece size, and old blade.
| Parameter | Meaning | Common range | Selection note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Length | The welded loop circumference. It determines whether the blade fits the machine. | Confirm from the machine and old blade | Use the machine nameplate, old blade label, or measured loop circumference. |
| Width | Blade width. It affects stability, rigidity, and curve capability. | 6–80 mm (common reference range) | Narrow for curves, wider for breakdown work; stay within the machine allowance. |
| Thickness | Blade body thickness. It affects rigidity and flexibility. | 0.5–1.6 mm (common reference range) | Balance stability against flexibility; confirm from the machine and old blade. |
| TPI | Teeth per inch. It affects chip clearance and cut finish. | 2–10 (common reference range) | Higher TPI for harder or thinner work; lower TPI for thick or soft material. |
FAQ
Do fresh meat, frozen meat, and bone-in cuts use the same blade?
Not necessarily. Fresh meat, frozen meat, bone-in cuts, and bones differ in pitch, tooth form, and blade strength requirements. Confirm against the cutting condition, saw model, and old blade specification.
Which parameters matter for a food band saw blade?
Length, width, thickness, TPI, tooth form, and weld-joint quality all matter. Fresh meat, frozen meat, and bone cutting place different demands on the blade, so confirm the final specification with the machine.
What if I do not know the saw model?
Send a machine nameplate photo, old blade photo, or old blade dimensions to start. A brand name or approximate length can also be submitted first.
How do I confirm the size if the old blade has no label?
Measure the welded loop circumference and record the width, thickness, and TPI. Provide the saw model or nameplate photo as well, and DEKOLY can help confirm.
Are custom lengths and welded loops available?
Custom length, different TPI, and welded loops can be reviewed against the requirement. Final specifications depend on the saw, material being cut, and quantity.
