SIP 01322 Bandsaw Blade 2490mm (98") - Various Widths & TPI - Xcalibur Tooling

From long rip cuts to shaped timber components, the SIP 01322 can be adapted to different woodworking jobs by fitting a blade that matches the required cut. This 2490mm (98-inch) high-carbon steel blade is available in several widths and TPI configurations, allowing users to adjust the setup for timber thickness, cutting direction, and finish requirements.

The flexible high-carbon steel construction supports continuous movement around the bandsaw wheels, while UK precision welding creates a durable continuous loop. Whether the job involves stock preparation, curved profiles, or cleaner detail work, selecting the right width and tooth pitch helps the blade work more effectively with the material.

Key Features

• 2490mm Blade Length: The 2490mm (98-inch) measurement is specified for the SIP 01322, providing a clear reference when selecting the correct blade for the machine.

• High-Carbon Steel Construction: The blade combines flexibility with a sharp cutting edge, making it suitable for repeated woodworking applications involving different timber types and dimensions.

• Range of Blade Widths: Narrow, medium, and wider configurations let users prioritise either curve-cutting ability or greater stability during straighter cuts.

• Multiple Tooth-Pitch Options: Different TPI choices help control cutting speed, sawdust clearance, and finish quality according to the thickness and type of timber being processed.

• Precision-Welded in the UK: Each blade is welded in the UK to form the continuous loop required for dependable bandsaw operation.

Applications

• Cut shaped furniture components, patterns, decorative pieces, and other curved profiles by choosing a narrower blade capable of following smaller cutting radii.

• Handle everyday timber sizing and component preparation with medium-width blades that provide a practical combination of directional control and manoeuvrability.

• Use wider blade configurations for ripping boards and completing longer straight cuts where additional blade support can help maintain a more consistent cutting path.

• Match lower TPI options to thicker stock where faster material removal and effective sawdust clearance are important, while finer tooth arrangements can be used when working with thinner material or aiming for a smoother edge.

• Keep the correct replacement bandsaw blade available for joinery, furniture making, craft work, timber preparation, and other projects where different cutting requirements may arise.

Why Choose Our Bandsaw Blade?

• The 2490mm machine-specific length removes uncertainty about the basic blade size, and width and TPI choices need to be considered.

• A broad choice of widths means the SIP 01322 can be configured for detailed curves, everyday woodworking, or more stable straight-line cutting without expecting one blade profile to perform every task equally well.

• Selectable TPI configurations allow the cutting action to be adapted according to stock thickness and the desired balance between cutting speed and finished edge quality.

• High-carbon steel provides the flexibility required for repeated travel around the machine wheels while maintaining effective cutting characteristics for timber.

• For owners who regularly use their SIP machine for different woodworking projects, having suitable width and TPI combinations available makes it easier to configure the bandsaw around the actual job rather than compromising with one general setup.

FAQs

1. What blade setup is suitable for furniture component preparation?
For general furniture parts, a medium-width blade can provide a useful balance between straight cutting and moderate curves. If the component includes tighter shapes, moving to a narrower blade can improve manoeuvrability.

2. Does the type of cut matter when selecting blade width?
Yes. Blade width affects how easily the blade changes direction and how stable it remains on straight cuts. Narrow profiles favour curves, while wider options are better suited to ripping and longer straight cutting.

3. How can I get a smoother edge on thinner timber?
A finer TPI places more teeth in contact with the material and can provide a cleaner finish on thinner stock. Feed pressure should remain controlled to avoid forcing the timber through the blade.

4. Why is sawdust clearance important when cutting thick stock?
If sawdust cannot clear effectively between the teeth, cutting efficiency and finish can suffer. A lower TPI provides larger spaces between teeth, which can be useful when processing thicker timber.

5. Should blade condition be checked between different projects?
Yes. Inspect the teeth for dullness or damage and check that blade tension, tracking, and guides remain correctly adjusted. These checks help maintain consistent performance when moving between different cutting tasks.
