    INTRODUCTION TPI: The number of teeth per inch as measured from gullet to gullet. 2. Tooth Rake Angle: The angle of the tooth face measured with respect to a line perpendicular to the cutting direction of the saw. 3.Tooth Pitch: Tooth pitch refers to the number of teeth per inch (tpi). 1 inch equates to 25.4 mm. A distinction is made between constant tooth pitches with a uniform tooth distance, 2 tpi for example, and variable tooth pitches with different tooth distances within one toothing interval.
  • Page 63 4. Tooth pitch The main factor here is the contact length of the blade in the workpiece. If it is 4P, 25.4 ÷ 4 P = 6.35 mm, that is, one tooth is 6.35 mm. If it is 3P, 25.4 ÷ 3 P = 8.46 mm If the number is small, it means that the tooth is large. What is written as 3/4 is that it is a variable pitch of large (3) / small (4).
