Description
Stryker 940-35 Titanium Ion Cast Saw Blade (Gold TiN Coated)
The Stryker 940-35 Titanium Ion Cast Cutter Saw Blade is an authentic, Stryker-compatible blade specifically designed for use with the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw. Its distinctive gold color comes from a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating, often referred to as “titanium ion” coating.
This premium coating increases surface hardness, reduces friction, and helps the blade stay sharp longer. The result is a cooler-running blade that performs especially well during lengthy procedures, such as long-leg cast removal or high-volume clinic use.

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, OrthoTape contacted Stryker and confirmed two overseas sources that continue to manufacture compatible blades. We now import these blades and stock them in our Ridgeland, SC 29936 warehouse for fast USA shipping.
What Type of Blade Is the Stryker 940-35?
This product is a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coated stainless steel blade for the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw. The Titanium Nitride coating hardens the blade surface and tooth edges, reduces friction and drag, helps prevent heat build-up, and maintains sharpness longer than standard stainless steel blades.
Cast Saw Blade Coatings – In Order of Strength
#1 Dichronite Blade (Coated)
Dichronite (Tungsten Disulfide) is a dry-film lubricant applied under high air pressure. Benefits: extended blade life, cooler cutting temperatures, reduced drag.
#2 Ion Nitriding (Coated)
Ion Nitriding bombards the blade with nitrogen ions in a vacuum chamber, creating surface hardness approaching that of diamonds and maximizing blade life.
#3 Titanium Nitrided Blade (Coated) – This Product
Titanium Nitride (TiN) is a gold ceramic coating that significantly hardens the blade surface and reduces drag, resulting in cooler cutting and longer-lasting sharpness.
#4 PTFE (Teflon-Coated)
PTFE (Teflon) provides a slick, low-friction surface but can wear off relatively quickly.
#5 Stainless Steel (Uncoated)
Stainless steel blades are heat-treated for durability. A typical practice removing 10 casts per week can expect a blade to last about 1–2 months.
Why Choose a Titanium Ion Blade for the Stryker 940?
- Longer Blade Life — TiN coating maintains sharp teeth longer than uncoated stainless steel.
- Cooler, Smoother Cutting — Reduced friction means less heat and improved patient comfort.
- Ideal for Long Procedures — Performs better than standard blades for long-leg casts or multiple removals.
- Compatible with Existing Equipment — Designed specifically for the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Stryker 940-35 blade compatible with the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw?
Yes. The Stryker 940-35 Titanium Ion blade is specifically designed and sized for the Stryker 940 cast cutter saw.
What does "Titanium Ion" mean on the Stryker 940-35 blade?
Titanium Ion refers to a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating on a stainless steel base blade. This gold-colored ceramic coating hardens the blade surface, reduces friction, and helps the blade cut cooler and stay sharp longer than an uncoated stainless steel blade.
How is the 940-35 different from a standard stainless steel cast saw blade?
A standard stainless steel blade is uncoated. The 940-35 has a gold TiN coating that improves surface hardness, decreases drag, and helps maintain sharpness during repeated or lengthy cast removals.
Does OrthoTape offer volume discounts on Stryker 940-35 blades?
Yes. 5% off for 5–9 blades, 10% off for 10+ blades. Applied automatically at checkout.
Where do Stryker 940-35 blades ship from?
All Stryker 940-35 blades ship from OrthoTape's Ridgeland, SC 29936 warehouse.
Why did Stryker stop selling cast saw blades in the US?
Stryker shut down all cast saw support in the United States. OrthoTape contacted Stryker directly and confirmed two overseas manufacturers that continue to produce authentic, compatible blades, which OrthoTape now imports and stocks in the US.
How does TiN compare to other cast saw blade coatings?
Ranked strongest to standard: (1) Dichronite, (2) Ion Nitriding, (3) Titanium Nitride/TiN (this product), (4) PTFE/Teflon, (5) Stainless Steel. The 940-35 is a strong mid-tier choice with meaningful gains over stainless steel.
When should I choose a Titanium Ion blade over stainless steel or ion nitrided?
Choose the 940-35 when you need better performance than stainless steel at a cost-effective price. Ideal for long-leg cast removal and high-volume clinics. For maximum blade life, consider the Ion Nitrided 940-23.
