Record Power BS400 Bandsaw 16"

Record Power BS400 Bandsaw 16"

The BS400 bandsaw offers high quality, industrial features and large capacities to the mid range bandsaw market. This machine brings affordable solid performance and reliability within reach of the discerning woodworker.

Like all bandsaws in the range, a solid cast iron table provides unrivalled stability and solidity. An industrial style cast trunnion supports the table and allows it to be tilted one-handed on a rack and pinion. Dynamically balanced cast iron band wheels ensure superior strength and reduced vibration - a feature not usually found on other machines at this level. The 2hp motor and 305mm depth of cut mean this machine can cope easily with large timbers yet is also equally capable of fine, precise cuts and veneers.

Cast Iron Band Wheels

Are dynamically balanced and provide a flywheel effect for improved cutting performance. Rubber tyres are precision ground for easy blade fitting and smooth drive.

Industrial Style Fence

This high quality fence features a heavy extrusion mounted on a cast iron base, which moves along a solid steel bar. This provides exceptional strength and accuracy and is easily locked with the brass screw and handle.

Large 535 x 480 mm Cast Iron Table

Provides a strong and steady work area to support large workpieces. Finely ground finish enables effortless movement of the timber.

Cam Action Tensioner

With the flick of a handle the tension is released on the blade enabling quick easy changing, but more importantly, when reset, the previous tension is automatically applied to the new blade. This makes blade changing a much simpler task and allowing tension to be taken off the blade when not in use.

Toolpost Support

Features jacking screws for easy adjustment.

Accurate and Easy to Use Blade Guides

Blade guides need accurately setting if they are to be of any use – so easy access and adjustment are a must. We believe our guides, similar to those found on industrial machines costing many times more, give even greater support and easier adjustment than ever. When these guides are compared to ball race guides it is clear that they provide far more support. They cover around 3/4” of the blade side rather than the pinpoint contact that ball race guides provide.

Trunnion

Solid double trunnion table mount for rigid table support featuring one handed rack and pinion table tilt for ease of use and accuracy.

Bandsaw Masterclass DVD Included
