MARATHON® M42 – The All-Rounder for Small and Large Cross Sections

The MARATHON^® M42 is the epitome of the economical band saw blade and stands for a broad application spectrum with consistently high quality.
The bimetal band saw blade for service-oriented customers is optimized for more complex performance and support requirements in the sawing process, such as those required for industrial applications.

The high quality features of MARATHON^® M42 are now even more flexible in applications thanks to the expansion of the product line and are thus available for small cross-sections up to large solid materials.

The superfinishing of the band saw blade and the sharp cutting edges increase the blade-life and improve the quality of the cut. The fine band surface protects the machine’s guides and increases fatigue strength.
