Precision Fit for Acra-916-A
Designed for compatibility with the specified Acra-916-A model and related ACRA 9" × 16" horizontal metal-cutting bandsaw configurations. Confirm the exact machine model and required blade dimensions before ordering.
119-Inch Blade Length
The specified 119-inch blade length provides the required continuous blade loop for the listed product configuration. Verify this measurement against your machine manual, as blade dimensions can vary between similar bandsaw models.
Flexible Blade Width Range
Supports blade widths from 1/2 inch to 1 inch, according to the supplied product specifications. The permitted width depends on the machine's blade guides and wheel configuration.
Designed for Metal Cutting
Suitable for compatible metal-cutting applications involving steel, aluminum, tubing, pipes, and solid metal stock. Selecting the correct blade material and tooth pitch helps achieve consistent cutting performance.
Compatible with Horizontal Bandsaws
Designed for horizontal metal-cutting applications commonly found in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and industrial maintenance environments.
9-Inch Round Cutting Capacity Compatibility
The associated ACRA 9" × 16" machine family provides a stated round cutting capacity of approximately 9 inches at 90 degrees. Actual capacity depends on the exact machine configuration and workpiece shape.
Rectangular Stock Cutting
The compatible machine family is specified for rectangular stock up to approximately 9" × 16" at 90 degrees, supporting a variety of workshop and fabrication tasks.
Multiple Tooth Pitch Options
Selecting an appropriate teeth-per-inch (TPI) configuration helps match the blade to material thickness. Coarser tooth pitches are generally suited to thicker stock, while finer pitches are better for thinner tubing and smaller sections.
Supports Multiple Cutting Speeds
Compatible ACRA step-pulley models are listed with blade speeds of approximately 82, 132, 170, and 259 FPM. Select the appropriate speed according to the material, tooth configuration, and machine instructions.
Miter-Cutting Compatibility
Related ACRA bandsaw configurations support angled cutting from 90 degrees to approximately 45 degrees, with some variations offering additional miter capability. Verify the range for your exact machine.
Stable Blade Tracking
Correct blade dimensions, tension, and guide adjustment help maintain stable tracking, reduce blade wandering, and improve cutting accuracy.
Hydraulic Downfeed Compatibility
Some compatible machine configurations use hydraulic damping or controlled downfeed to regulate cutting pressure and support consistent cutting progress.
Coolant-Assisted Cutting
Compatible machines may include an integrated coolant system to manage heat and assist chip removal during metal cutting. Follow the machine manufacturer's coolant recommendations.
Durable Replacement Construction
Selecting an appropriate blade material, such as carbon steel or bi-metal where compatible, helps provide the required wear resistance and flexibility for the intended cutting application.
Reliable Workshop Performance
With the correct dimensions, tooth pitch, speed, and operating setup, the Acra-916-A replacement blade supports routine metal cutting in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and industrial workshops.
