Baileigh's BS-210M is the perfect horizontal
band saw when your job requires miter cuts
up to sixty degrees. This compact band saw
requires only 110 volts of power, so it is
perfect for small to large machine shops
where metal sawing applications under 6-3/4"
are required to be cut. Like other Baileigh
band saws, it comes standard with the
ability to manually cut using a trigger
switch and handle, or it can be switched
over to utilize a hydraulic descent feature
normally seen on more expensive models. When
using the hydraulic descent feature you can
control the descent pressure for perfect
cuts and can walk away from the machine that
will automatically stop the blade once the
metal is finished being cut. A powerful
1-1/2 HP DC motor has the proper torque to
drive the direct drive gearbox with no
chatter, even at slower cutting speeds that
are required when cutting the likes of mild
steel.
This impressive piece of equipment comes
standard with a DC variable speed drive
allowing the operator to use the proper
speed when cutting different materials like
mild steel or aluminum, that increases blade
life and cutting speed. The miter angle
takes seconds to change for increased
production in any fabrication or machine
shop and offers tool less changeovers. The
vise has a rapid advancing hand wheel and
the vise is locked by a 1/4 turn taper
handle that holds the material very secure
against the serrated vise plates that
further reduce any slippage. Such a vise
system increases blade life especially when
cutting round material like tubing or pipe.
