JET J-3230 5" x 8" Wet Horizontal Metal Bandsaw
Are you losing time on metal cuts that require multiple setups or leave you babysitting the machine through every pass?
What if your horizontal bandsaw handled the downfeed on its own, stopped at the end of the cut, and held your stock square every time?
Meet the JET J-3230 5" x 8" Wet Horizontal Metal Bandsaw, a wet cutting bandsaw built for metal shops that need reliable, repeatable cuts on round and rectangular stock.
With the J-3230, you get a hydraulic downfeed system, a worm and bronze gear drive running in an oil bath, and blade guides equipped with ball bearings on both sides of the cut.
When your saw handles the feed rate and shuts itself off at the end of each cut, you can stay focused on the rest of the job.
JET J-3230 for Controlled Horizontal Metal Cutting
Hydraulic Downfeed System Controls Cut Pressure
The fully adjustable hydraulic downfeed system manages how the head descends through the cut. You set the feed rate to match your material and let the saw do the work. At the end of the cut, the auto shutoff stops the machine without any input from you.
Worm and Bronze Gear Drive Runs in an Oil Bath
The blade is driven by a steel heat-treated worm gear driving a bronze worm gear, and the entire assembly runs in an oil bath. This keeps the drivetrain cool and reduces wear over time. It is a durable system suited to daily shop use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Ball Bearing Blade Guides Support Accurate Cuts
Blade guides on both sides of the cut use an eccentric shaft design with ball bearings at the side and rear positions. This configuration keeps the blade stable and properly tracked through each cut. You can adjust the guides to suit different blade widths and cutting conditions.
Heavy-Gauge Steel Stand Keeps the Machine Stable
The 14-gauge steel stand is built for rigidity and easy use. The redesigned base stays planted during cuts and includes a lower shelf for storing accessories. Built-in wheels and a handle let you reposition the saw within your shop without removing tooling or accessories.
