SIP 01401 Bandsaw Blade 1785mm (70 1/4") - Various Widths & TPI - Xcalibur Tooling

A well-matched blade helps the SIP 01401 handle different timber-cutting jobs with greater control and consistency. Measuring 1785mm (70 1/4 inches) in length, this high-carbon steel blade is available in several widths and TPI configurations, allowing the machine to be adapted for ripping, general cutting, curved profiles, and finer woodworking.

Its flexible construction allows the blade to travel repeatedly around the bandsaw wheels, while precision welding in the UK creates a continuous loop for dependable workshop operation. Choosing the correct width and tooth pitch helps match the blade more closely to timber thickness, cutting direction, and the finish required.

Key Features

• SIP 01401-Specific Length: The 1785mm (70 1/4-inch) blade length is designed for the SIP 01401, giving users a clearly defined replacement size before selecting width and TPI.

• High-Carbon Steel Construction: Flexible high-carbon steel provides the sharp cutting characteristics required for regular timber preparation while accommodating continuous movement around the machine wheels.

• Multiple Width Options: Different blade widths allow the bandsaw to be configured for detailed curves, everyday cutting, or more stable straight ripping.

• Selectable TPI Configurations: Various tooth pitches help users balance cutting speed, sawdust clearance, stock thickness, and the quality of the finished edge.

• UK Precision Welding: Each blade is precision-welded in the UK to create a continuous wood cutting bandsaw blade suitable for regular workshop use.

Applications

• Prepare hardwood or softwood components before joining, shaping, sanding, or other workshop operations.

• Choose narrow 3–6mm blades for curved furniture parts, templates, decorative profiles, and projects where tighter changes in cutting direction are required.

• Use medium 10–13mm widths for general cutting where both reasonable manoeuvrability and straight-line control are useful.

• Select wider 19mm-plus configurations when ripping timber or making longer straight cuts where additional blade stability is preferred.

• Match lower TPI options to thicker timber for faster material removal, while finer tooth pitches can be selected for thinner stock and projects where a smoother cut is required.

Why Choose Our Bandsaw Blade?

• The machine-specific 1785mm length helps simplify replacement selection for SIP 01401 owners.

• A choice of blade widths allows the same bandsaw to support different woodworking operations rather than relying on one configuration for every type of cut.

• Different TPI options make it possible to adapt the cutting action according to timber thickness, chip clearance requirements, and desired surface finish.

• High-carbon steel provides a practical combination of flexibility and cutting performance for repeated woodworking applications.

• For workshops equipped with premium woodworking tools, keeping suitable bandsaw blade configurations available provides greater flexibility when moving between timber preparation, shaped work, ripping, and detailed cutting.

FAQs

1.  Which blade setup is best for curved woodworking projects?
A narrower 3–6mm blade is generally better for tighter curves because it can change direction more easily. The exact width should be selected according to the radius of the shape and timber thickness.

2. Can the SIP 01401 blade be used for ripping timber?
Yes. Wider blade options are better suited to longer straight cuts and ripping because they provide greater directional stability. A suitable lower TPI can also help with sawdust clearance in thicker stock.

3. How does TPI affect the finish of the cut?
Lower TPI blades remove material faster and provide more space for sawdust clearance. Higher TPI configurations place more teeth in contact with the timber and are better suited to finer cuts and smoother finishes.

4. Why are different blade widths available for the same machine?
Different woodworking jobs place different demands on the blade. Narrow blades favour manoeuvrability and curved work, while wider blades provide additional support for straighter cutting.

5. What should I check to maintain good blade performance?
Check blade tension, tracking, guide alignment, and tooth condition regularly. Using a width and TPI suited to the material and avoiding excessive feed pressure can also help maintain controlled cutting.
