About this 3070mm x 3mm 14 TPI carbon blade
A 3070mm carbon bandsaw blade, just 3mm (1/8″) wide, with 14 teeth per inch. This is one of the narrowest bands we make, chosen when the tightest curves matter more than speed.
The 1/8″ width lets the blade turn very small radii, ideal for scroll-style shapes, toys, templates, inlays and intricate profiles. Because the band is so narrow, it is not the blade for long straight rips or resawing - a wider band will track straighter there.
With 14 TPI the tooth spacing is about 1.8mm, so three teeth remain in the cut from roughly 5-6mm upwards. It leaves a smooth edge in thin hardwood and softwood, plywood, MDF and plastic sheet, and it will also handle thin non-ferrous sections.
The 3070mm length points to a larger floor-standing bandsaw; check that your machine accepts a 3mm blade, as some larger saws have guides that cannot support a band this narrow. Carbon steel makes this an economical blade for detailed work.
How to check this is the right blade
Check that your machine’s plate, manual or old blade says 3070mm, measure the band at 3mm (1/8″) across from tooth tip to back edge, and count 14 teeth in one inch. Our guides to how bandsaw blades are measured and which TPI you need walk you through it.
How tight a curve can a 3mm blade cut?
A 1/8″ blade turns tighter than any wider band, which is why it is the usual choice for intricate shapes. Feed slowly through the tightest turns and use relief cuts where you can.
Why does my 3mm blade wander on straight cuts?
A narrow band has little stiffness front to back, so it follows the grain more easily. Use a fence and a gentle feed, or switch to a 6mm or wider blade for straight work.
