Hallo guys!

Wanted to ask, maybe someone of you know where I could buy bi-metal bandsaw blades for international shipping, cause localy I got only one option which is really, really poor... some type of HF blade, really bad... the original which was one the bandsaw was much better

Size: 64.5"... not sure on teeths, though. Will be cutting sch10 and also thin wall - 16/17ga, stainless steel.

Also... what brand blades do you use, what teeth configuration for what application?

Hope someone will be able to help me

Thanks

 

bump?

 

i use lenox blades. i believe you can order them online. just google lenox bandsaw blade

 

Do you use variable pitch or just standart? What pitch have you found works best for what?

Thanks

 

i use variable

 

which for sch pipe and which for thin wall? How does it work for you?

Thanks

 

i have one blade i use for everything.

 

Fastenal is a good supplier of Lenox blades. I don't know if they will ship international though.

 

i use to work on a Navy Base, and in their machine shop they just had a few large spools of band saw blades where you would just measure out what you need, and on the band saw was a spot welder so you could bring the seams together. might not be a bad idea to find a local machine shop and see if they have that option for you...that way, whenever you need new blades you can just go there to have them made rather than order them and wait

 

My father actually found a place where they have baldes in stock, they cut them and weld them in sizes customer needs... nice! And prices are really sweet. Ordered 64.5" Bi-metal M42 10/14 TPI blade and it's only 15$... LOL. Hope it'll be good! If thats the case, I'll be super happy!

Thanks everyone!
