Baileigh BSVT-18P 18" Vertical Tilting Band Saw
Are you cutting thick steel and aluminum at angles and need a vertical band saw that tilts the frame instead of repositioning the material?
What if your band saw tilted 45 degrees left and right, reached 20-inch material sections, and ran a hydraulic feed system on 220V 3-phase power?
Meet the Baileigh BSVT-18P, an 18-inch vertical tilting band saw built for fabrication shops and structural steel environments that cut heavy stock at precise angles daily.
With the BSVT-18P, you get a 2 HP motor on 220V 3-phase power, variable blade speed from 84 to 312 FPM, hydraulic feed, and bearing and carbide blade guides on a heavy welded frame.
When the BSVT-18P is set up for your job, you get accurate angled and straight cuts on large material sections with a machine built for demanding production use.

Baileigh BSVT-18P for Tilting Frame Structural Metal Band Saw Cutting
Tilt Frame Cuts 45° Left and Right Without Moving the Material
The BSVT-18P cutting head tilts up to 45 degrees left and right, allowing precise angled cuts without repositioning heavy or oversized stock on the table. This tilt-frame design is a significant workflow advantage on structural steel and fabrication jobs where moving large material between cuts adds time and effort.
Hydraulic Feed System Delivers Controlled Blade Descent
The hydraulic feed system controls blade descent through the cut for a smooth, consistent result on heavy and thick stock. Consistent feed pressure keeps blade load even across the full material cross section, which directly affects cut surface quality and blade wear over extended production runs.
Variable Blade Speed Covers a Range of Metal Types
Blade speed adjusts from 84 to 312 FPM to match the material and cross section being cut. Bearing and carbide blade guides support stable blade tracking across the full speed range, keeping cut quality consistent through both straight and angled cutting work.
Heavy Welded Frame and Coolant System Support Production Use
The heavy-duty welded frame minimizes vibration and holds alignment through extended daily cutting on thick steel and aluminum. The integrated coolant system with a 1/8 HP pump reduces heat at the blade and extends blade life on longer production runs.
