Review on Enhance Performance with POWERTEC 13197 πŸ’ͺ TPI Band Blades – Unleash Precision Cutting Power! by William Turner

Revainrating 1 out of 5

PowerTec saw blade broke in less than a month

I bought a PowerTec 80" x 1/4" x 6 TPI for my band saw less than 30 days ago. When I installed it the blade didn't sound right even after I checked the installation. Wood was burning on a 3/4 inch thick pine and the machine was making more noise than usual. The blade broke today and severed 3/8 of a pine. I put the old blade back in so I could continue cutting without any problems. Olson 80" x 1/4" x 10 TPI to see if their brand holds up better than PowerTec.

Pros
  • Construction: This precision cutting tool is designed with optimal tooth geometry for seamless cutting results with high productivity
Cons
  • unreliable
