where to get 98" bandsaw blades
« on: January 18, 2021, 09:01:59 am »
I have a Grizzly 14 1/2" bandsaw that takes a 98" blade. Where can I get one? Timberwolf doesn't offer one.

Is your blade 98"?

Maybe Lee or Woodcraft.  Double check Lowe's as they may carry one on line.  Grizzly, too!  Don't remember the name of the Italian maker. Diablo may make one that size.

That's funny - Timberwolf has 98" listed, at least for 1/2" x 4PC, which is what I usually get.  I didn't check all of the sizes though.

I got a couple from Grizzly. At the other places when I put in 98" blades they all came back unavailable, even with a better description.
Anyway, I got 2 coming. Thanks all.   :OK

2 of Mine takes a 111 ,a couple more 80,  but I get all of mine from Grizzly, they seem to have the best prices, may not be the best blades out there but I go through a lot with all the folks that use mine, so price is important to me. :) Mine usually get bent before they have time to be worn out. ;) :) :)

I get mine made at a local saw shop, there is probably one in your area that sharpens and sells bandsaw blades for both commercial and hobby sawyers with portable band saw mills.
