Tooth pitch is measured in number of teeth per inch. For Combi (variable) pitch teeth, the two figures used represent the highest and lowest number of teeth per inch in each group of teeth.

Regular Tooth Pitch

The distance between the teeth is constant throughout the blade. Ideally suited to cutting solid materials on sawing machines with efficient clamping. Very effective on high-alloy steels and exotic alloys.

Combi (variable) Tooth Pitch

Combi tooth pitch is based on groups of differing tooth pitches being repeated at regular intervals throughout the blade, reducing vibration through resonance during cutting. Sawing thin-walled hollow sections and material in bundles or with weak clamping are typical applications for this tooth pitch configuration.
