Here at Butchers Equipment Warehouse, we offer a variety of butcher's tools, accessories, and machinery to choose from, from meat grinders to professional-quality chef's knives to butcher blocks and beyond. The sheer breadth of our range gives us considerable experience in a huge variety of tools and equipment - so today, we're taking a closer look at meat bandsaws, or more specifically, bandsaw blades.

Bandsaw blades are one of the most important pieces in a butcher's toolkit. These sturdy meat blades are engineered specifically for cutting meat, but that doesn't mean that they're all the same. In fact, quite the opposite; there's a blade for every job, from delicately slicing fish fillets to sawing through bone on your cut of beef or lamb, so it's essential to have the correct blade for your task.

At Butchers Equipment, we actually started out in the business of selling bandsaw blades. Around 35 years later, we’re still manufacturing and supplying butcher's meat bandsaw blades for happy customers across the UK, so we've put together a whistle-stop tour of all the things you need to know about them. So, let's dive in!

The importance of quality bandsaw blades

Having a sharp and fresh blade on your bandsaw is key to your efficiency as a butcher, because they lower cutting costs by generating efficient cuts while producing less waste. It’s important to switch out your blades when you notice the teeth becoming dull. When the blades on your bandsaw are blunt, they become ineffective at best, and they can be extremely dangerous at worst.

At Butchers Equipment Warehouse, we stock a range of different bandsaw blades, all from leading brands like Madock bandsaw, AEW bandsaw, Omega bandsaw, Mainca bandsaw, and more. Each of the blades we stock are fit for various cutting purposes and come in different teeth styles and thicknesses, so you can get exactly what you’re looking for to keep your butcher shop ticking over without any delays.

 

Choosing the right size for your machine

We stock a range of blade sizes from 61" all the way up to 164.5", so you're sure to find exactly what you're looking for. If on the off chance, you can't, don't worry; we have many blades in stock in our warehouse, so simply give our friendly team a call, and we can help get our order processed over the phone.

It's always best practice to have a couple of spare bandsaw blades to hand so you can switch them out as and when your current blades dull; that way, you never have to stop operations on the shop floor. And when you're stocking up on your blades, it's important to make sure you're buying the correct size so the switch can go off without a hitch.

Our bandsaw blades come individually wrapped to prevent them corroding when you store them. We also offer quantities of 10, 25 and 50, but if you are looking to buy an even larger amount of bandsaw blades at one time, then get in touch with our team and we’ll see what we can do!

Consider the material

Our butcher bandsaw blades are made using the highest quality steel with four teeth per inch, ensuring sharpness and durability. The steel has a smooth surface, making it easy to clean, which is important when working with raw cuts of meat. It is also very robust, so the teeth won't dull quickly, allowing for precision and ease when slicing through tough cuts of meat and bones.
