UL-listed Motor and Manual Speed Set for Robust Performance
The HVBS-7MW owes its robust performance to a UL-listed, 3/4 HP, 115-volt motor, which is balanced by a manual blade set for greater control. You can set the speed at 85, 130, 180, and 285 feet per minute--whichever best suits your materials and job. And a hydraulic downfeed also ensures cutting ease.
Cast Iron Construction and Hardened, Ground Worm Gear for Durability
Designed to provide consistent performance even after years of heavy use, this bandsaw boasts sturdy construction, including a heavy cast iron bow and bed, as well as hardened and ground worm gear for extraordinary durability.
Automatic Shut-Off and Coolant System for Safety
To help prevent accidents or loss of control, the saw automatically shuts off after each cut, while a complete coolant system delivers coolant through the blade guides to prevent over-heating and helps ensure smooth, continuous operation.
Adjustable Roller Blade Guides and Material Stop for Precision
For added convenience, the HVBS-7MW features adjustable roller blade guides and an adjustable material stop to accommodate different materials. There's also a chip tray built right in the roller tray to help keep your workspace free of dust and debris, which helps maintain visibility as you work.
The HVBS-7MW is backed by a two-year warranty.
About JET: A History of Sharing New, Feature-Rich Products
Opened in 1958 after the founder of the company, Leslie P. Sussman, took the first Boeing Jet Airplane trip from Seattle, Washington to Japan, JET began as a small dealer that sold air hoists and trolleys out of a single hardware store in Seattle. Over the years, JET has carried everything from snowmobiles, transmitter radios, and forklifts to nylon stockings, but by the early 1970s, metalworking had become the base of their business line. And by the 1980s, JET had expanded into the realm of woodworking. Today, you'll find that JET offers a wide range of popular woodworking tools that are backed with best-in-class features and excellent service.

This review is from: JET 414459 HVBS-7MW 7-Inch 3/4-HP Horizontal/Vertical Bandsaw, 115/230-Volt 1-Phase (Tools & Home Improvement) I used this in my machine shop to cut thousands of parts for machining. It cuts my stainless steel and aluminum good enough for me. I would like the 1 inch blade bandsaw but the next step up is a huge difference in cost. I have recommended it to other new shops and they agree that this is a good buy!!! some adjustment form time to time and it will cut straight and consistantly. It's not that conveinient to switch to vertical but works well in both positions. Its best in horizontal. It can be a bit messy with the coolant but over all a good buy. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: JET 414459 HVBS-7MW 7-Inch 3/4-HP Horizontal/Vertical Bandsaw, 115/230-Volt 1-Phase (Tools & Home Improvement) This is an impressive bandsaw. We haven't used the cutting coolant system yet, but the straightness of cut, the solidness of the construction, and the smoothness of operation are all very impressive to me especially after our previous, lighter weight horizontal saw. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: JET 414459 HVBS-7MW 7-Inch 3/4-HP Horizontal/Vertical Bandsaw, 115/230-Volt 1-Phase (Tools & Home Improvement) The saw is awesome.
The shipping, on the other hand, was terrible. The first one I was sent had been tipped over, despite a giant red arrow and DO NOT TIP sign on the crate, and the motor housing was crushed in. The second one showed up sideways on a pallet, despite a giant red arrow and DO NOT TIP sign on the crate, and gear oil had leaked out all over the place. |
