Powermatic PM2415B Bandsaw 5HP 1PH

At Powermatic, we believe that ambition fuels progress. Every product we create is inspired by the same question: How can we empower woodworkers to accomplish more? Craftsmen around the world continuously push the boundaries of their creativity, which, in turn, challenges us to provide them with the best tools for their needs. 

When we reimagined our line of bandsaws, our goal was not only to meet the ambitions of woodworkers but to exceed them. Larger projects and workpieces demand more power, greater resaw capacity, and more cast iron. This bandsaw features the legendary quality, precision, and attention to detail that have supported woodworkers in expanding their ambitions for over ninety years.

Features:

• Exclusive Powermatic T-Square style Accu-Fence® maximizes accuracy and safety
• The Accu-Fence has complete adjustability for aligning to the blade and squaring to the table
• Sturdy cast iron table and trunnion assembly offer maximum rigidity for large work pieces
• Positive locking cam with pressure adjustment
• The oversized side plate can be used in the horizontal or vertical position
• Solid steel resaw post for optimum rigidity
• Blade tension release with electrical interlock prevents the bandsaw from starting when the blade is de-tensioned (patent pending)
• Heavy-duty upper wheel support and tracking mechanism for smooth operation
• Solid cast iron upper and lower wheels create the momentum needed for heavy resawing
• High-end blade guides with tool-less adjustment provide stability, increasing cut accuracy
• Four-sided blade guard for optimum protection
• Foot brake with a magnetic switch interrupt provides the user with hands free stopping option
• The magnetic switch protects the motor from harm due to potential electrical supply issues
• Heavy-duty 5-horsepower motor provides the power needed for all projects
