The 3868 Carbide Triple Set “Xtra” TSX bandsaw blade from Bahco is engineered to be versatile in cutting materials well on both vertical and horizontal bandsaw machines.
The 3868 Carbide Triple Set “Xtra” is a triple chip tooth design blade with a positive 10° rake angle, which is ideal for providing smooth, high-efficiency precise cuts on titanium and other difficult and abrasive materials. The advantage of a set blade is that it is much more forgiving in less stable machines compared to unset blades.
The 3868 Carbide Triple Set “Xtra” is versatile to run on both horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines to increase productivity while reducing users’ cost per cut. The grind of the carbide and set tooth design helps the 3868 Carbide Triple Set “Xtra” reduce vibration, especially on vertical cutting applications that tend to produce added vibration.
Features and benefits of the 3868 Carbide Triple Set “Xtra” TSX bandsaw blade from Bahco include:
• Exact same blade as Bahco’s Triple Set stainless (TSS), except not honed, making it suitable for applications where a sharp blade is needed.
• Triple set tooth design and good kerf clearance help eliminate tooth loss.
• Suitable for cutting, titanium alloys, graphite alloy, aluminum with high-silicon or matrix alloys.
• Greatly improved blade life.

- bandsaw blade ( band)
bandsaw blade ( band)
Endless band, normally with serrated teeth, that serves as the cutting tool for cutoff or contour band machines.
- clearance
clearance
Space provided behind a tool’s land or relief to prevent rubbing and subsequent premature deterioration of the tool. See land; relief.
- kerf
kerf
Width of cut left after a blade or tool makes a pass.
- rake
rake
Angle of inclination between the face of the cutting tool and the workpiece. If the face of the tool lies in a plane through the axis of the workpiece, the tool is said to have a neutral, or zero, rake. If the inclination of the tool face makes the cutting edge more acute than when the rake angle is zero, the rake is positive. If the inclination of the tool face makes the cutting edge less acute or more blunt than when the rake angle is zero, the rake is negative.
