Grizzly 10" Bandsaw - G0948

The G0948 10" 1/2 HP Bandsaw is an ideal choice for both budding woodworkers and seasoned professionals seeking a compact yet feature-rich addition to their tool collection. Designed with versatility and ease of use in mind, this lightweight bandsaw is perfect for home or garage setups, as well as for use as an auxiliary saw in professional workshops.

One of the most impressive aspects of the G0948 is its resaw capacity. With a maximum cutting height of 6-1/8", it rivals some 14" models in terms of resaw capability, but at a fraction of the cost. This makes it an economical yet powerful option for a wide range of woodworking projects.

The bandsaw utilizes a 72-inch blade and is compatible with blade widths ranging from 1/8" to 1/2". This versatility, combined with its power, enables it to efficiently cut through green woods and other dense materials. Additionally, the bandsaw offers two blade speed settings, 1520 or 2620 feet per minute, allowing you to tailor the speed to the specific requirements of your project.

The G0948 features an extruded aluminum fence that is designed for quick and easy attachment and removal. This fence is highly versatile, suitable for both ripping and resawing. It can be positioned vertically for standard workpieces or horizontally for thinner materials. The fence also includes a magnified cursor scale, ensuring fast and precise adjustments.

Enhancing visibility and accuracy, the bandsaw is equipped with a built-in LED work light, illuminating your workpiece and making it easier to follow your cut line. Additionally, the lower wheel incorporates a brush designed to clear away sawdust from the tire and blade during operation, maintaining clean and efficient cutting conditions.

Power transmission is optimized through a ribbed Poly-V belt, ensuring maximum power transfer from the motor to the wheel pulley. Safety is also a key feature, with the on/off paddle switch including a removable disabling key, adding an extra layer of safety to prevent accidental startups.

In summary, the G0948 10" 1/2 HP Bandsaw is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a lightweight, durable, and feature-packed wood-cutting tool. Its combination of cutting capacity, versatility, and safety features makes it a valuable addition to any woodworking environment.
