Powermatic PM1800B 18" BANDSAW 5HP 1PH 230V (1791800B)

At Powermatic, The need for quality, heavy duty, and dependable, durable machinery is understood. That’s why our band saws have been put through a thorough reimagining process in order to go beyond the borders of traditional standards. First Powermatic took the horse power up to 5 in order to be able to handle all band saw applications. Then, the overall accuracy and safety was maximized by integrating exclusive Powermatic T-square Accu-Fence which is completely adjustable for perfect alignment to the blade and squaring to the table. A sturdy cast iron housing and work table better accommodates larger work pieces. Powermatic also implemented more cut accuracy through high end blade guides that require no tolls for adjustment and provide added stability.
