Built for fabrication shops, maintenance work, and general metalworking, this heavy-duty band saw is designed to deliver reliable cutting performance with convenient machine controls. Its 1-1/2HP, 220V single-phase motor drives a 1" blade, while heavy-duty sliding ball-bearing blade guides help support accurate, stable cuts.
The adjustable hydraulic downfeed controls the descent of the saw bow through the material, and the quick-release vise makes it easier to secure and change workpieces. The saw can perform straight cuts at 90° and miter cuts at 45°, providing flexibility for a range of metal-cutting tasks.
Central post-mounted controls keep key functions within easy reach. An integrated coolant system helps manage heat during cutting, while the removable chip tray simplifies cleanup. Additional features include easy speed changes, a large blade-tension handwheel, magnetic safety switch, and automatic shutoff.
