A built-in flood coolant system helps to not only prolong blade life, but assists with a cleaner cut, preventing overheating and warping of blades. The hydraulic gravity down feed allows you complete control of the speed of the cut, ensuring the drop of the blade suits to the material that you are cutting, with the automatic stop, the blade will stop spinning once the cut is complete, allowing for safer worker interaction.
Ideal for cutting round, square or rectangular section, bandsaws like this Sterling STC CH NC are the mainstay of virtually any fabrication shop in the UK. We offer a wide range of Sterling and Bianco Bandsaws, to fit with your cutting requirements, look at the rest of the range here.
