Bandsaw Blade

[Johnny65]

Hi all,

I've been using the same supplier, not naming them, for my Elektra Bekum bandsaw blades for a long time now, ordered 2 the other day and tried fitting one yesterday, big problem, the teeth are the wrong way round, the other one is the same, never ordering from them again.
Anyone recommend a good bandsaw blade supplier.

Cheers John.

They are inside out - just turn them around.

Most members on here recommend tuff saw blades , I’ve yet to try them but won’t hesitate once I’ve used up the ones I have already.

What has happened is the blade has been twisted the wrong way when it was folded up. As Phil said, it just needs the blade folding through on itself to alter the direction of the teeth. Nothing wrong with the supplier/manufacturer

Had this same issue when I first had a bandsaw, utterly confused by it at first.
