Dark Stone Band Saw Blade 62 inch (62 x 1/4 x 8T, High Performance)

They work as good as the expensive ones

I was gonna toss the saw out. After a lot of F-&#ed up wood with blades that twisted and ruddered in the wood that were too thin. I was done. But I noticed that the rollers on the guides weren't adjustable. The blades I had were too thin in the rollers. .014 etc. Then I found this. .025 with 1/2 inch width, the teeth cleared the rollers and it fit tightly on both top and bottom. Wide enough kerf. By hand, the blade don't twist in the rollers, they hold and engage the blade properly. Cleaned and oiled the bearings. Just like a brand new bandsaw with the proper blade like from the factory. I'm glad I ordered two, just in case one pops. I can now use my fence and shove thick wood through it with confidence. 3/4 inch birch plywood, 5/8 inch MDF, no problem. Nice & strait. Don't even have to sand much. Will still use it to build me a table saw anyway. I do know not to run the saw at higher speeds now. Should be advertised as for this type of band saw. As a factory replacement. Them other thin ones are no good. Much cheaper than having one custom made for $43 bucks. Thanks for giving this woodworker strait cuts again. Happy customer.

ok

I use this to make pretty tight curves and it out performs everything I've used thus far in the 1/4" width blade category. Had no trouble with 8/4 red oak, and slices through other hard Woods easily

Not durableThis blade is for cutting WOOD AND PLASTIC ONLY will not cut metal thicker that 1/16" aluminum or ANY STEEL. Cut one piece of 1" diameter thinwall EMT tubimg and the blade was ruined, would not even cut wood afterward

I got this blade for doing rip cuts in hardwood. Works really well on my mini bandsaw, and not bad for thicker crosscuts either.

The quality is good and will be getting more and the next one will be 62 x 1/4

I do not think I cut that much wood with it and it only lasted one week now it is dull. Will not buy again.
