BOSCH BS5912-18M 59-1/2-Inch by 3/8-Inch by 18TPI Multi-construction Bandsaw Blade

I had a hard time finding a blade locally was very happy Amazon had one

so far so good

love how easy it is to install

I had been looking for a metal cutting blade for my Delta bench-top band saw. Very happy with this find, Used it to cut aluminum stock for a project and it worked beautifully. 1/8 x 3 angle aluminum and 3/16 aluminum plate. No issues what so ever.

My band saw is a Bosch and so I purchased this blade since its a direct replacement part, works just like the original.

I remember seeing three blades come with this purchase and only got one.

This blade did not do what I was hoping, but it seems like a nice blade irregardless. It would not cut 5/64 (~2mm) o1 tool steel prior to hardening. It made a convincing dent in it, but either it or my cheap craftsman saw wasnt up to the task. I now assume Id want something with a much lower tooth count. e: I raised from 3 to 4 stars now that Ive used this on hardwood. Its easily a blade worth the money for hardwood, but Ive since also tried it on a 3/8ths galvanized steel rod with no luck beyond denting and warming it up.

I bought this to cut 1/8 mild steel. I got about 3 in and then it quit.

It cuts fine and works good. I use it to cut bone and fossil ivory, I havent used it to cut metal.
