Welcome to the Bahco Bandsaw Blade Catalogue<br />
We are pleased to present the latest Bahco assortment of industrial bandsaw blades. Constant development and<br />
investment in research and development has resulted in both innovative and high performance products for both general<br />
purpose and production cutting. We offer many patented products from the unique 3857 easy cut designed to take the<br />
complex blade selection process out of bandsaw operation through to the latest “set” and “unset” high performance<br />
carbide blades for cutting complex materials used in new generation commercial and military aircraft, complex power<br />
generation projects and high technology industries.<br />
We include the terminology, tooth pitch selection tables, speed selection data and tooth shape guides for both bi-metal<br />
and carbide blades. Also, we offer advice and tips on troubleshooting problems and some of the cutting aids required<br />
by customers involved in production cutting including our patented “bandcalc” programme designed to advise on blade<br />
selection using our customer’s data on machine type, material shapes and sizes.<br />
Quality is our number 1 priority and we also, believe that a key factor in both production and general purpose cutting is<br />
product consistency. To achieve this, we operate within Snap-on cfs or quality forward system, which uses the iso 9001-<br />
2000 framework. We strive to continually improve our quality management system focussing on customer needs and<br />
satisfaction. Rci is fundamental to our production processes where we believe in making improvements day by day to<br />
continuously improve our products.<br />
Finally, we showcase our entire Bahco metal cutting assortment comprising holesaws, reciprocating saws, hand hacksaw<br />
blades and frames, power hacksaw blades, files and rotary burrs.<br />
