SIP 01406 Bandsaw Blade 2235mm (88") - Various Widths & TPI - Xcalibur Tooling

Getting clean, controlled results from the SIP 01406 depends on selecting a blade that suits both the timber and the cutting task. This 2235mm (88-inch) high-carbon steel blade is available in a range of widths and TPI configurations for straight cutting, ripping, curved profiles, and fine woodworking.

Its flexible high-carbon steel construction supports continuous travel around the bandsaw wheels, while precision welding in the UK creates a dependable continuous loop. The available width and tooth-pitch choices allow users to configure the blade around material thickness, cutting direction, and required finish.

Key Features

• 2235mm Machine-Specific Length: The 2235mm (88-inch) blade length matches the specification for the SIP 01406, providing a clear replacement size for compatible machines.

• High-Carbon Steel Construction: The blade combines flexibility with a sharp cutting edge, making it suitable for repeated hardwood and softwood cutting applications.

• Blade Width Options: Narrow, medium, and wider configurations allow users to choose between greater manoeuvrability for curves and improved stability for straight cutting.

• Multiple TPI Choices: Different tooth pitches help control cutting speed, sawdust removal, timber thickness, and the quality of the finished edge.

• Precision-Welded in the UK: Each blade is precision-welded to form a continuous loop designed for reliable and consistent workshop operation.

Applications

• Choose narrow 3–6mm configurations when cutting templates, decorative profiles, shaped furniture components, and other projects involving tighter curves.

• Use medium 10–13mm blades for routine timber preparation where a useful balance between directional control and moderate curve cutting is required.

• Select wider 19mm-plus blades for longer straight cuts and timber ripping where greater blade stability helps maintain the cutting line.

• Match lower 4–6 TPI configurations to thicker timber where faster cutting and efficient sawdust clearance are priorities, while finer tooth pitches are suited to thinner material and smoother finishing.

• For workshops sourcing wood tools uk, keeping different bandsaw blade configurations available can make it easier to move between furniture making, joinery preparation, craft work, and general timber processing.

Why Choose Our Bandsaw Blade?

• The 2235mm machine-specific length helps SIP 01406 owners identify the correct replacement before selecting the blade width and tooth pitch.

• Multiple widths allow the bandsaw to be configured specifically for shaped work, general timber preparation, or more stable straight cutting.

• Selectable TPI options give users greater control over cutting speed and finish rather than relying on one tooth configuration for every type of timber.

• High-carbon steel provides the flexibility required for repeated blade movement while retaining suitable cutting characteristics for woodworking.

• When you need to buy bandsaw blades for varied workshop projects, selecting the correct machine length, blade width, and TPI helps ensure the replacement is better matched to the intended cutting task.

FAQs

1. What blade setup should I use for mixed woodworking projects?
A medium-width blade can be a practical choice when your work involves both straight sections and moderate curves. The TPI should then be selected according to the thickness of the timber and the finish you want.

2. Why would I switch blade widths between projects?
Blade width affects how the bandsaw follows the cutting path. Narrower blades turn more easily around curves, while wider blades provide additional support when making longer, straighter cuts.

3. How does tooth spacing affect sawdust removal?
Lower TPI blades have larger spaces between the teeth, allowing more sawdust to clear during each pass. This can be particularly useful when cutting thicker stock where material removal is greater.

4. Which configuration is better for cleaner cuts on thin timber?
A finer tooth pitch, such as 14 TPI or above, is generally more appropriate for thinner stock and finer finish requirements. Controlled feed pressure also helps the teeth produce a cleaner edge.

5. When should I consider replacing the blade?
Consider replacement when teeth become noticeably dull or damaged, cutting requires excessive pressure, or the blade no longer tracks and cuts consistently despite correct machine adjustment.
