Thin Cutting Frame Saw blades are available with a .7 mm to 1.6 mm kerf. They can be either Stellite or Carbide tipped. We also offer tensioning machines for re-tensioning of the thin cutting frame saw blades. Also available is a back gauge with dial test indicator to check the amount of tension in the saw blade. Please call or email for more information.
Frame Saw blades are used for cutting both hard woods and soft woods. The saw blades come in a variety of lengths according to the frame in which they are installed. Saw Blades are produced from high-grade Swedish spring steel and the stellite teeth are welded to the body of the blade. The geometry of the face can be ground according to the material being processed. Blades can be sharpened 5 - 20 times depending on saw kerf and the wear on the stellite. Saw Blade kerf varies according to the length of the blade and the type of material being cut. The saw kerf can be as thin as .70 mm (.027") and as thick as 1.6 mm (.063"). Hogging blades are often used on the outside of the wood to hog off the excess material and to produce usable slats on the outside.

- Feed speed required

Saw blades for the resaw are used for cutting both hard and soft wood. Saw blades are produced from high quality Swedish spring steel and the stellite teeth are welded to the body of the band. The geometry of the face is ground according to the type of material being cut. Saw blades can be sharpened multiple times, depending on the blade kerf and the condition of the blade being ground and tensioned.
Carbide saw blades are available through Ogden Sales Group. Customers who are cutting reclaimed wood or woods like teak that contain silicone (sand) or contaminants may need to use carbide blades. Carbide blades are available in the same lengths as stellite blades. Please contact our parts department for further information.
