PS Wood Machines' Timber Wolf band saw blades run cooler, last longer and track true. Our 1/2” x 10 tpi x .025 blades are made of Swedish Silicon Steel. The teeth are induction hardened, milled for true tracking and produce a thin kerf. These blades run under a little lower tension which is better for your band saw. Our welds are warranted. The 1/2” x 10 tpi blades are generally used for straight-line cutting up to ¾” hardwoods and ½” softwoods. They can also make a 2-1/2” radius (5” diameter) cut. These blades give a smooth, clean finish for minimum sanding
