Why customers choose TaskHolt Tools

In busy workshops and on demanding job sites, dependable cutting blades save time and effort. The DEWALT 32-7/8-inch Bi-Metal Portable Bandsaw Blades (DW3986C) blend heat resistance with rugged durability to tackle tough metal cutting tasks. The Matrix II high-speed steel edge works to resist heat and wear, while the 8% cobalt content adds toughness for longer blade life. The tooth hardness, Rc 65-67, helps resist wear under heavy use, and an alloy steel backer provides fatigue resistance so you can push through longer jobs without frequent blade changes.

These blades are designed to handle a range of metal cutting needs, from thick structural sections to thinner gauge stock, making them a versatile choice for fabrication, construction, and workshop workflows. With consistent tracking and predictable performance, you can maintain momentum without overheating the blade or the workpiece.

Key advantages

  • Matrix II high-speed steel edge provides heat and wear resistance for longer cuts
  • 8% cobalt content increases durability and wear resistance in demanding cuts
  • Rc 65-67 tooth hardness boosts wear resistance under heavy use
  • Alloy steel backer adds fatigue resistance for tougher tasks

Applications and usage scenarios

  • Thick metal cutting: structural steel, heavy plates, and tubing
  • Medium metal: angle iron, channels, and hardware stock
  • Thin-gauge metal: sheet metal and thin profiles where flexibility matters

How to choose and use

  • Ensure compatibility with your portable bandsaw and proper alignment for accurate cuts
  • Maintain a steady feed pressure and let the blade do the work to minimize heat buildup
  • Inspect for wear, rotate blades, and replace when teeth show fatigue or chipping

What you get in this 3-pack

  • Three 32-7/8 inch blades with 0.020 inch thickness and 14/18 TPI
  • Durable cobalt-enriched edge and fatigue-resistant backer for long service life
  • Compact packaging for easy storage and transport on job sites
