Stryker 940-25 Stainless Steel Cast Cutter Saw Blade
The Stryker 940-25 Stainless Steel Cast Cutter Saw Blade is designed for use with the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw. This high-carbon stainless steel blade is ideal for routine cast removal in orthopedic clinics, hospitals, and casting labs.
After Stryker shut down cast saw support in the USA, many facilities were left scrambling for reliable blades and accessories. OrthoTape worked directly with Stryker's global partners to secure authentic, compatible blades that can still be shipped into the United States, so your Stryker 940 cast saw stays in service.

Stryker Cast Saw Support Update
Stryker recently shut down all cast saw support in the United States, including blades and accessories. Because Stryker products are still sold globally, we contacted Stryker and confirmed two overseas manufacturers that continue to produce authentic Stryker-compatible blades. We now import these blades and stock them in our Ridgeland, SC 29936 warehouse for fast shipping within the USA.
What Type of Blade Is This?
This specific product is a stainless steel, uncoated Stryker 940-25 cast cutter saw blade. It is made from high-carbon stainless alloy that is heat-treated for durability and consistent cutting performance. Stainless steel blades are the standard choice for general orthopedic use.
Cast Saw Blade Coatings – In Order of Strength
#1 Dichronite Blade (Coated)
Dichronite (Tungsten Disulfide) is a dry-film lubricant applied to stainless steel blades under high air pressure. Benefits include extended blade life, cooler cutting temperatures, and reduced drag through cast material.
#2 Ion Nitriding (Coated)
Ion Nitriding uses electron bombardment of nitrogen ions in a vacuum chamber to harden the blade surface, producing surface hardness approaching that of diamonds, very smooth surface with extremely low drag, and maximum blade life for high-volume cast removal.
#3 Titanium Nitrided Blade (Coated)
Titanium nitride is a gold-colored ceramic coating that hardens the cutting surface, reduces friction and drag, and helps maintain sharp teeth and cooler surface temperatures.
#4 PTFE (Teflon-Coated)
PTFE (Teflon) is a very slick, non-stick coating that allows the blade to slide smoothly through casts with low resistance. The PTFE coating can wear off relatively quickly, but these blades remain popular because of their initially low friction surface.
#5 Stainless Steel (Uncoated) – This Product
Stainless steel blades (like this Stryker 940-25 blade) are made from high-carbon stainless alloy that is heat-treated for durability and consistent cutting performance for routine cast removal.
How Long Does a Stainless Steel Stryker 940-25 Blade Last?
A normal orthopedic practice that removes around 10 casts per week can expect a single stainless steel blade to last about 1–2 months before it should be replaced.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Stryker 940-25 blade compatible with the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw?
Yes. The Stryker 940-25 is a stainless steel replacement blade specifically designed for the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw.
Is the Stryker 940-25 an authentic Stryker-compatible blade?
Yes. OrthoTape worked with Stryker's global distribution network to identify manufacturers that still produce authentic, compatible blades. These blades are imported and stocked in OrthoTape's USA warehouse.
How often should I replace a stainless steel Stryker 940-25 blade?
For a practice removing about 10 casts per week, a stainless steel blade typically lasts 1–2 months. If cutting feels slow, noisy, or generates more heat, it is time to replace the blade.
Does OrthoTape offer volume discounts on Stryker 940-25 blades?
Yes. OrthoTape offers automatic 5% off when you buy 5–9 blades and 10% off when you buy 10 or more blades. Discounts are applied automatically at checkout — no coupon code needed.
Where do Stryker 940-25 blades ship from?
All Stryker 940-25 stainless steel cast cutter saw blades ship from OrthoTape's Ridgeland, SC 29936 warehouse for fast delivery within the United States.
Why did Stryker stop selling cast saw blades in the US?
Stryker shut down all cast saw support in the United States, including blades and accessories. OrthoTape contacted Stryker directly and confirmed two overseas manufacturers that continue to produce authentic, compatible blades for Stryker cast saws, which OrthoTape now imports and stocks in the US.
How does the stainless steel 940-25 blade compare to coated cast saw blades?
Cast saw blade coatings ranked from strongest to standard: (1) Dichronite — longest life, lowest friction; (2) Ion Nitriding — plasma-hardened, maximum blade life; (3) Titanium Nitride — gold ceramic, extended sharpness; (4) PTFE (Teflon) — low friction but wears off faster; (5) Stainless Steel — uncoated, reliable for routine use (this product). The 940-25 is the economical choice for lower-volume practices.
How do I choose the right cast saw blade coating for my practice?
Consider your cast removal volume, patient comfort needs, and budget. High-volume clinics benefit from coated blades for longer life and cooler cutting. Lower-volume practices or those prioritizing upfront cost savings often choose stainless steel blades like the Stryker 940-25. Always confirm blade compatibility with your specific saw model before ordering.
