SineWave® Bandsaw Blades

SineWave® technology is a developed technology for carbide and bi-metal bandsaw blades. Simonds application engineered SineWave® technology enhances cutting ability, reducing work time and increasing blade life. SineWave® technology features a value-added broaching action by utilizing ramps on the back edge of the saw blade. This technology exerts more force into the cut without having to increase machine pressure. Oscillating bandsaw technology uses a unique rocking motion that forces each tooth of the bandsaw blade to penetrate the work. SineWave®’s rocking motion ensures better tooth penetration for faster cutting rates while allowing the blade to cut with less pressure, extending blade life. SineWave® cuts …

D2 Steel and the Bi-Metal Bandsaw Blade

D2 steel is a type of vacuum heat treated steel that is raised to a high temperature and then rapidly cooled by vacuum process. An air-hardened steel composed of a large amount of carbon and chromium, with a high chromium content that gives D2 its mild corrosion resistance properties. Typical applications include forming dies and rolls, punches, knives, shear blades, scrap choppers, and tire shredders. D2, Inconel, and other exotic materials are considered very hard steels and require the use of a saw blade designed exclusively for these materials. Bi-metal blades work best. The 601 Series Haltbar M42 bandsaw blade is widely …
