SIP 01407 Bandsaw Blade 2235mm (88") - Various Widths & TPI - Xcalibur Tooling

Selecting the right blade configuration helps the SIP 01407 perform more effectively across different woodworking tasks. This 2235mm (88-inch) high-carbon steel blade is available in multiple widths and TPI options, allowing users to adapt the machine for straight cutting, ripping, shaped work, and finer timber preparation.

The flexible blade body supports repeated movement around the bandsaw wheels, while UK precision welding helps create a consistent continuous loop. By choosing a suitable width and tooth pitch, woodworkers can better match blade performance to timber thickness, cutting direction, and the required surface finish.

Key Features

• 2235mm Blade Length: The 2235mm (88-inch) specification matches the SIP 01407, helping users identify the correct replacement before selecting width and TPI.

• High-Carbon Steel Construction: Flexible high-carbon steel combines suitable cutting sharpness with the ability to withstand continuous movement around the bandsaw wheels.

• Multiple Width Options: Narrower blades support curved and shaped cutting, while wider configurations provide additional stability for longer straight cuts and ripping.

• Choice of TPI: Different teeth-per-inch options allow the cutting action to be matched to timber thickness, cutting speed, sawdust clearance, and desired finish.

• UK Precision-Welded Blade: Each blade is precision-welded in the UK to support consistent operation across regular workshop applications.

Applications

• Use narrow 3–6mm blades when producing curved furniture components, decorative shapes, templates, or other pieces requiring tighter cutting radii.

• Select medium 10–13mm widths for general workshop cutting where a useful balance between manoeuvrability and straight-line control is required.

• Choose wider 19mm-plus options for ripping boards or making longer straight cuts where greater blade support can help maintain the cutting path.

• Lower 4–6 TPI configurations are useful for faster stock removal in thicker timber, while finer tooth arrangements are better suited to thinner workpieces and smoother finish requirements.

• For workshops already equipped with wood shop tools and equipment, having different blade width and TPI options available makes it easier to adapt the SIP 01407 to changing project requirements.

Why Choose Our Bandsaw Blade?

• Machine-specific 2235mm sizing provides a clear replacement length for the SIP 01407 and helps reduce uncertainty when choosing a compatible blade.

• The availability of multiple widths gives users greater flexibility when switching between detailed curve work, general preparation, and straight timber cutting.

• Different TPI options allow the blade to be selected according to the actual material and application rather than using one tooth pattern for every job.

• High-carbon steel provides the flexibility required for regular bandsaw operation while maintaining suitable cutting characteristics for hardwood and softwood.

• When choosing wood cutting bandsaw blades, matching the blade length, width, and TPI to the machine and project helps improve cutting control and makes the setup more suitable for the intended task.

FAQs

1. Which blade should I choose for a project with both curves and straight sections?
A medium-width blade is often a practical option where the job includes moderate curves as well as straighter sections. The final choice should also consider timber thickness and the minimum curve radius required.

2. What happens if I use a blade that is too wide for a tight curve?
A wider blade has less ability to follow a small radius and may resist the intended cutting path. Choosing a narrower blade gives greater manoeuvrability when producing detailed or shaped components.

3. How do I choose between faster cutting and a smoother finish?
Lower TPI blades generally remove material faster and clear sawdust more effectively. Higher TPI blades place more teeth in contact with the timber and are better suited to finer cuts and smoother finishes.

4. Can the SIP 01407 blade be used on both hardwood and softwood?
Yes. High-carbon steel blades are suitable for common hardwood and softwood applications. Blade width and TPI should still be selected according to material thickness and the type of cut being made.

5. What should I monitor during regular bandsaw use?
Check blade tension, tracking, guide position, and tooth condition regularly. Changes in cutting accuracy, increased feed pressure, or rougher results can indicate that the blade or machine setup needs attention.
