Blade Selection Summary

To see how TPI and width of the blade come
together, use the table opposite for reference.
• Regularly examine the blade for excessive

damage or cracking as a result of fatigue. If
such damage is present replace the blade.

• It is important to use a sharp blade. Dull teeth

result in increased feed pressure producing a
poor quality finish and an inaccurate cut.

Note:

As well as the blades listed, we can also
supply bandsaw blades to almost any
specification - please call Record Power
customer services in your country.

8.9 Record Power BS300E Blade Range

Record Power’s high performance bandsaw
blades are manufactured to the highest quality
tolerances using a specialist premium high carbon
steel strip.
The extensive quality control program which
involves digital tooth profile checks, set analysis,
straightness testing, hardness testing and micro
structural analysis results in a blade that cuts
straighter and has harder, longer lasting teeth.
A premium British blade that can last up to ten
times longer than other blades on the market.
