Wood Band Saw & Timber Band Saw Suppliers in Melbourne

A saw is a bladed tool that’s designed for cutting different types of materials. A wood band saw is specifically designed to cut through timber. Available in different shapes and sizes, a wood band saw is commonly used in woodworking environments.

Wood band saws, also known as timber band saws, generally have a sharp blade with a band of toothed metal stretching across two wheels or more. They can be used for woodworking as well as for cutting metals.

Most wood band saws usually have two wheels that firmly rotate in place, one of which receives power and makes the other rotate. Some also have multiple wheels to balance the load properly. They are powered by an electrical motor.

They are generally used for ripping lumber, especially larger bandsaws. Smaller, portable versions are also available, which need to be removed and serviced regularly to ensure performance.
