Adjustable Band Saws for Metal
Highly versatile, these saws make precise horizontal and vertical cuts from a single saw. They work well whether you’re simply cutting metal into smaller pieces or creating complex shapes. When the blade is horizontal, these saws cut from above, making square or angled cuts. For straight or intricate curved cuts, position the blade vertically and feed your workpiece through. They’re powerful enough to cut through aluminum, steel, and stainless steel. However, they should only be used for dry cutting.
The higher the horsepower, the smoother the cut, even in thick and hard metals.
Saws with an automatic feed push material into the blade at a steady pace, so they’re more accurate than those you feed manually. Once the blade reaches your material, the weight of the saw head completes the cut for you.

Horizontal Band Saws for Metal
Make repeat cuts in pipes, bars, and thick metal sheets. These saws make more precise straight and angled cuts than vertical band saws by cutting from above into a clamped workpiece. For smooth cuts every time, the saw head uses hydraulics to move at a controlled speed. Once the blade reaches your material, the weight of the saw head completes the cut for you. The built-in coolant system prevents overheating, so the blade lasts longer and your workpiece won’t harden or warp. The coolant also keeps the cut area clear of metal shards to stop them from sticking onto the blade.
Direct-drive saws send power straight to the blade instead of a belt, which keeps the power and speed steady when cutting thick, hard metals. They also have fewer parts, which means they need less maintenance.
Saws with cutting resistance detection automatically adjust their speed to protect the blade from bending and the teeth from chipping. The blade slows down for hard materials and speeds up for soft ones. Since you don’t need any tools to access the blade, swapping it out is quick and easy.
Saws with blade tension detection prevent startup if the blade is loose, misaligned, or broken. As a fail-safe, they can also stop mid-cut.

Vertical Band Saws
Make precise cuts in a variety of materials by pushing your workpiece through the vertical blade. Unlike horizontal band saws, these saws can make curved and intricate cuts. They can also make straight cuts when you use a fence to guide your material.
Style B saws are more versatile than Style A saws because they cut through metal in addition to wood and plastic. They have a chip collection system that blows debris away from your cut line and into a chip chute. Hook up your dust collector to the chip collection port to suck away the debris.
Style C saws can cut through the thickest and hardest material without stalling because they produce the most torque compared to these other styles. Designed to run at lower speeds, they can cut through plastics and metals, including steel and other hard metals. To help you see your cut line, they have a chip blower that keeps debris out of the way and a light for illuminating your work. These saws come with a blade maintenance station, so you can create band saw blades from coil stock, repair broken blades, and sharpen your blades.
