Wood-Mizer Introduces New Tooth Spacing for Band Sawmill and Resaw Blades

WPA-member Wood-Mizer has introduced two new bandsaw blade options with 1” and 1 ¼” tooth spacing to satisfy the needs of high production, high horsepower resaw and sawmill operations. The new blade tooth spacing options further expand Wood-Mizer's range that includes a large variety of bandsaw blades for nearly every type of sawing or resawing application.

Available in SilverTip carbon material, 1” tooth spacing blades are offered in a 10 degree all-purpose profile to saw any type of wood species. These blades are designed for high production resaw and sawmill operations that prefer 1” tooth spacing or for filing rooms that have blade maintenance equipment currently setup for 1” tooth spacing.

Available in SilverTip carbon material, the 1 ¼” tooth spacing blades are offered in a Turbo 7 degree high-performance profile. With increased air flow and higher tooth penetration while sawing mixed species, Wood-Mizer’s exclusive Turbo 7 degree profile is tried, tested, and proven by high production, high horsepower, and high feed rate operations throughout the world. Combine this exclusive Turbo 7 profile with a wider 1 ¼” gullet to provide an ideal blade for high throughput grade resaw and sawmill operations.

Both 1” and 1 ¼” tooth spacing blades are now available to order in a variety of lengths to fit various sawmill and resaw brands and models. Wood-Mizer provides blade maintenance equipment and ReSharp services that are able to accommodate these new tooth spacing options.
