JET 15" JWBS-15 Bandsaw
Are you trying to resaw thicker boards or cut tighter curves but your current bandsaw runs out of capacity or power?
What if your shop had a bandsaw with the throat depth, resaw height, and steady blade control needed for larger stock and detailed work?
Meet the JET 15" JWBS-15 Bandsaw, a steel frame woodworking bandsaw built for smooth cutting, dependable tracking, and reliable shop performance.
With either the 1-3/4 HP 115V motor or the more powerful 3 HP 230V motor, rigid guide post system, and heavy-duty cast iron table and fence, this machine provides the stability needed for demanding cuts.
When the saw runs smoothly and adjustments stay predictable, your focus stays on the cut—and the results show in your finished work.
JET JWBS-15 for Resawing and Precision Bandsaw Work
Motor Maintains Steady Cutting Power
The JWBS-15 uses a 1-3/4 HP or 3 HP motor designed for consistent cutting through hardwoods and thicker stock. Blade speed stays smooth without slowing under load, reducing burning and improving edge quality during resawing or curved cuts.
Rigid Four-Sided Guide Post Improves Blade Support
The guide post system supports the blade from four sides for stable tracking during demanding cuts. A rack and pinion adjustment makes height changes controlled and predictable. This design keeps the blade properly supported as material thickness changes.
Cast Iron Table and Fence Support Straight Cuts
The heavy-duty cast iron table and fence provide firm support for boards and resaw work. Micro-adjust dials allow small positioning changes so cuts stay accurate, keeping workpieces stable as they move through the blade.
Quick Release Tensioning Simplifies Blade Changes
The tensioning system includes full tension, partial tension, and full release settings. This allows the blade to be relaxed between uses and tightened again quickly. Blade tracking window and easy access doors make adjustments faster and more predictable.
