Grizzly G8144Z Metal Cutting Bandsaw
The versatile G8144Z 12" 1 HP VS Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw allows intricate cutting of materials from aluminum to brass to tool steel.
The blade speed can be adjusted between 104–1300 FPM and is displayed on the digital readout.
Don’t use the Grizzly bandsaw for cutting wood. It can do it, but the blade is the wrong type, and it doesn’t have the right kind of dust collection for collecting wood dust.
All Members must take a Tool Training and Testing class before using this machine.
