SIP 01573 12" Gear Drive Metal Bandsaw (1.5HP)

Three-speed direct drive motor gearbox
A quick-change switch enables easy selection of the blade cutting speeds compared to belt-driven bandsaws. This increases the versatility of the saw as a large range of materials can be cut quickly.

Heavy-duty cast iron fixed head bow
The bow action allows cutting between 0° and 45° using an adjustable vice. This allows round, square and rectangular sections to be cut. Fitted to a wheel-mounted steel base, this weighted machine provides a rigid cutting platform which helps to reduce vibration and increasing cutting accuracy.

• An adjustable hydraulic ram dampener aids smooth cutting descent and control for greater blade control
• Auto-stop cut function engages when the cutting process is complete.
• Supplied with bi-metal vari-pitch blade for enhanced cutting performance.
• A manual blade tensioner ensures the blade cuts cleanly and accurately.
• Also fitted to the bow, a coolant system extends blade life and cools cutting area.

Adjustable cast iron vice
Cast iron vice securely holds the workpiece for precise cutting.

Enhanced safety features
A low voltage (24v) control circuit minimises electric shock which limits harm to machine operators. Interlocking switches prevent the saw running when the blade guard or belt pulley covers are opened. Adjustable blade covers limit exposure during cutting for greater user safety.
