Description
JET VBS-1610 Vertical Metal Cutting Band Saw – 16in, 2 HP, 3 PH
The JET VBS-1610 Vertical Metal Cutting Band Saw is a heavy-duty industrial vertical bandsaw designed for precision contour cutting, fabrication work, and production metal shaping. With a 16-inch throat capacity and a 2 HP, 3-phase industrial motor, this machine is built for continuous-duty operation in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and manufacturing environments.
Unlike horizontal bandsaws that are optimized for straight cuts, the VBS-1610 is engineered for freehand cutting, curves, templates, and complex profiles, making it ideal for detailed metal fabrication work.
Its rigid steel frame, precision-ground cast iron table, and variable blade speed system provide stable, accurate cutting across a wide range of materials including steel, aluminum, stainless steel, plastics, and composites.
