Simonds Carbon Band Saw Blades

Carbon band saw blades are made of high carbon steel. They are best suited for cutting wood, composition board, and non-ferrous metals (i.e. brass, copper, bronze), but can be used for light-duty use on ferrous metals.

Simonds offers 4 types of carbon band saw blade - Hard Edge, Simet, Furnwood II, and Friction band.

Hard Edge - or HEMB, the basic carbon blade with hardened teeth and a flexible back - the teeth are hardened to 63 Rc - 65 Rc (Rc = Rockwell "C" scale)

Features & Benefits
Flexible back - 25 to 27 Rc Resists fatigue at high speeds and on small wheel machines
Inexpensive Good where operator abuse of blades is a problem

Hard Edge ranges from 1/8" to 1-1/4" in width, with many variations available. Offered in coil form or welded to length - call for availability.

Simet - this blade combines hardened teeth with a hardened back

Features & Benefits
Hardened back - 45 to 47 Rc Greater beam strength for higher blade tension and higher cutting rates - less susceptible to guide damage
Cost-effective A few pennies more than HEMB, but with up to 25% more performance

Simet ranges from 1/4" to 1-1/4" in width, with many variations available. Offered in coil form or welded to length - call for availability.

Furnwood II - this hard edge blade is designed for woodworking operations and the furniture industry, but can be used on non-ferrous metals also. Extra beam strength (.032 thickness) for accurate contour cutting.

Features & Benefits
.032 thick vs. standard .025 More beam strength for straight cuts
Alternate, or every-tooth-set pattern Allows fast, easy feeding & smoother cuts
Deep gullets Free chip formation for faster cuts

Furnwood II ranges from 1/4" to 1" in width, in 2, 3, and 4 T.P.I. Sabre tooth. Offered in coil form or welded to length - call for availability.

Friction Band - designed for friction cutting stainless and other high alloy steels at speeds from 8,000 to 15,000 S.F.P.M. (surface feet per minute), the gullets carry the molten metal out of the cut.

Features & Benefits
High silicon steel Resists fatigue at high speeds
Special tooth geometry & heat treat Carries more molten metal out of the cut

Friction band is available in 1/2", 3/4" and 1" width, with 8, 10 or 14 T.P.I.. Offered in coil form or welded to length - call for availability.
