Description

Get the superior performance your projects demand with the Jet® JWBS-20-5 20” woodworking bandsaw. With more re-saw capacity, greater throat depth and the horsepower you need, you’ll be able to tackle bigger boards, create smoother edges and master the intricate cuts. The heavy-duty cast-iron fence system is built to give you the sturdiness and support you need for every project and features a micro-adjust dial for exact placement. The table is slotted and the guide post has a stress-free magnetic door on the front for efficient blade changes. Large, independently adjustable guides are tool-less to save you time on set up.

Bandsaw Specs: What They Mean & Why They Matter:

• Horsepower (HP) – Determines cutting power, especially important for hardwoods and demanding resawing.

• Resaw Height – The maximum board thickness the saw can slice vertically.

• Maximum Cutting Width – The maximum width of material that fits between the blade and the frame.

• Blade Width Range – Indicates what blades the saw can accept, affecting both curve cutting ability and resaw performance.

• Table Size – Affects how well the saw supports and stabilizes your workpiece.

• Construction Material – Heavier material better absorbs vibration and adds stability.
