Morse Streamlines Portable Band Saw Blade Lineup

CANTON, Ohio, April 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The M. K. Morse Company announced a simplification of its line of portable band saw blades.

The move aims to make the blade selection process quicker and easier, while allowing Morse to continue to provide reliable, quality, and high-performance blades. It will enhance our ability to ensure the highest standard of on-time delivery and reaffirm our commitment to being easy to do business with.

Portabands will now be organized by application type, and tooth pitch options have been streamlined from seven down to four. The lineup provides the same coverage for materials and thickness, and our simple blade selection chart ensures quick identification of the right cutting solution.

Customers will also see improved pricing, with 8/11 and 12/16 blades priced to match 14/18 and 18 tooth per inch (TPI) blades.

As the portable band saw market continues to evolve and change, Morse has seen end users gravitate away from 10/14, 14W, and 24W tooth pitches, which drove the decision to remove these options from the lineup. The four tooth pitches offered provide optimum performance in accordance with today's tools and operating parameters and reinforce our focus on manufacturing excellence.

"Our former portaband product offering had significant crossover and many tooth pitch options that made it challenging for end users to quickly identify which blade best met their needs," said Ryan Rhodes, product manager, Commercial Division, at Morse. "The new structure provides an industry-leading SKU selection that is organized by application, making it quick and easy to pick the right solution for the job."

Whether cutting conduit, strut, threaded rod, stainless steel, pipe, tubing, solids, structural pipes, machinable metals, PVC, cast iron, or more, Morse has a blade for any material.
