VIDEO: Bandsaw blade guides — ceramic blocks or bearings?

VIDEO: Bandsaw blade guides — ceramic blocks or bearings?

4 years ago

In the video, Craig Heffren from Record Power talks about band saw guides.

Do you get a better cutting result with ceramic tips than with bearing tips? Is there a difference between bearings in practice and what are the advantages and disadvantages?

Frequently asked questions

Do ceramic guides give a better cut?

Ceramic blocks support the blade over a larger area with no moving parts and withstand high temperatures, which gives good lateral support in demanding ripping. Bearing guides turn with the blade and reduce friction, which suits general use.

Who explains this in the video?

Craig Heffren of Record Power.
