Why Set the Blade Teeth?

A typical bandsaw blade will have a tooth set to the left, one right, and one straight. So if you look down your bandsaw blade you will notice this all the way around the blade.
The left and right set teeth have around .018"-.025" of 'set' in them. The object is to have enough set to clear the body of the blade so that the straight tooth has a clear path through the log.
If there was no set put into the bandsaw blade teeth the log would bind down on the blade and evidence of this is often seen when the wood starts smoking from the excess friction.
As the teeth wear on the side it looses tooth mass and the result is the illusion that the tooth has lost set when it fact the friction has simply worn the tooth down. That is why proper sharpening and re-setting are necessary to reshape the tooth and then re-set the reshaped tooth.

Set your bands with the fastest and most accurate tooth setter on the market today!

ACCURATE - With dual dial indicators mounted directly on the bandsaw setter you set both teeth (right and left) while indicating the two teeth that were set one stroke earlier. Accuracy is improved over similar setters because you can see exactly how much you are setting the tooth.

EASY - Because of the special designed cam action the handle is easy to push and pull. The handle sets two teeth on the down stroke and two teeth on the up stroke making blade setting quick and easy, and gives you double setting action per revolution!

complete blade.

This is as Accurate as it Gets!

The Cat Claw Tooth Setter can set blades from 3/4" to 2" wide. Table mount push lever allows 850psi of pressure with the simple push of a handle. Blade deflection is pressed out as the sliding steel block moves forward.

The spring loaded bar makes contact 1/8" ahead of the set pin, thus removing deflection and making it possible to get a true dial reading of the side clearance. The Cat Claw Setter gives accurate measurement of tooth set before and after setting on every tooth.

It is built with a solid design.
Very simple to operate and extremely accurate!
