JET J-7040-4 10" x 16" Horizontal Bandsaw is a heavy-duty cutting machine from JET engineered for demanding metalworking and fabrication environments. Powered by a 2 HP, 460V, 3-phase motor with a variable speed drive system, this saw delivers precise, consistent cuts across a wide range of materials and cross-sections. Its patented 3-jaw vise, six-point blade guide system, and swing-away control panel combine to reduce setup time and maximize operator efficiency on the shop floor. Key Features Adjustable blade guide with six contact point system that utilizes cam follower bearings mounted on eccentric shafts on both sides of the blades for superior blade stability and cut accuracy Adjustable Material Stop for repeatable, consistent cut lengths without re-measuring Heavy-duty transmission utilizes hardened and ground gears operating in an oil bath for long-lasting, low-maintenance performance Patented 3-Jaw vise with rapid action moveable jaw for faster set up, reducing changeover time between cuts Swing away control panel houses major saw controls, keeping all primary functions within easy reach of the operator Variable speed drive system allows blade speed to be precisely matched to the material being cut Specifications MPN: JT9-414499 Drive: Variable Speed Blade Speeds: 100-350 SFPM Motor: 2 HP, 460V, 3Ph Blade Wheel Diameter: 14 in. Rectangle at 90 Degrees: 10 x 10 and 7 x 16 in. Rectangle at 45 Degrees: 6-1/2 x 11 in. Round at 90 Degrees: 10 in. Round at 45 Degrees: 10 in. Vise Swivels: 45 deg. Overall Dimensions (L x W x H): 75-1/2 x 33 x 41 in. Weight: 927 lbs. Country of Origin: Taiwan Prop 65: Cancer and Reproductive Harm Frequently Asked Questions What blade speed range does this horizontal bandsaw operate at? The JET J-7040-4 features a variable speed drive system with a blade speed range of 100-350 SFPM, allowing operators to dial in the correct speed for different materials and cutting applications. What are the maximum cutting capacities of this saw? At 90 degrees, the saw cuts rectangles up to 10 x 10 in. and 7 x 16 in., and rounds up to 10 in. At 45 degrees, it handles rectangles up to 6-1/2 x 11 in. and rounds up to 10 in. How does the 3-jaw vise improve workflow? The patented 3-Jaw vise features a rapid action moveable jaw for faster set up, significantly reducing the time needed to secure workpieces between cuts and improving overall productivity. What type of transmission does the J-7040-4 use, and why does it matter? The saw uses a heavy-duty transmission that utilizes hardened and ground gears operating in an oil bath. This design provides durable, reliable power transfer while minimizing wear and reducing the need for frequent maintenance in high-production environments.
