138-Inch Blade Length
The specified replacement blade length is 138 inches. Correct blade length is essential for proper installation, tensioning, wheel tracking, and safe machine operation.
1-Inch Blade Width
The 1-inch blade width provides a strong balance of rigidity and flexibility, helping minimize blade deflection while maintaining accurate cutting performance.
Heavy-Duty Horizontal Cutting
Designed for compatible horizontal metal-cutting applications involving structural steel, stainless steel, aluminum, tubing, pipe, bars, and other industrial metal stock.
Wellsaw 850-Series Compatibility
The replacement blade is specified for compatible Wellsaw 850A 81016 / 850-series equipment and is intended to support dependable operation when the machine is correctly maintained.
Variable Hydraulic Downfeed
The compatible Wellsaw 850 platform uses hydraulic downfeed control together with a counterbalance spring to regulate saw-frame descent and blade engagement.
Spring-Loaded Carbide Guides
Carbide blade guides paired with backup roller bearings help secure the blade, improve tracking, and support straight cutting under load.
Quick-Acting Swivel Vise
The machine uses a manual screw-type vise that can swivel up to approximately 45 degrees, allowing both straight and miter-cutting applications.
Four-Speed Blade Drive
The Wellsaw 850 platform provides four selectable blade speeds of approximately 50, 100, 175, and 275 SFPM, allowing operators to select suitable cutting conditions for different materials.
Reduction Gearbox Drive
A reduction gearbox and ring-gear blade-drive arrangement provide dependable mechanical power transmission for demanding metal-cutting applications.
Integrated Flood Coolant
Compatible wet-cutting configurations use an approximately 8-gallon coolant tank and flood pump to control heat, reduce friction, and help clear chips from the cutting area.
Automatic End-of-Cut Shut-Off
The compatible machine includes a mechanical shut-off arrangement that can interrupt the motor circuit once the blade completes the cutting cycle.
Rotary Blade Cleaning Brush
A mechanical rotary blade brush helps remove chips from the blade gullets, supporting efficient tooth engagement and cleaner cutting performance.
Heavy-Duty Machine Construction
The Wellsaw 850 platform uses substantial cast-iron and steel components designed to provide a rigid cutting foundation and minimize vibration.
High Cutting Capacity
The referenced 850-series configuration provides approximately 10.5-inch round capacity and 10-inch high × 16-inch wide rectangular capacity, making it suitable for medium-to-large metal sections.
Extended Blade Service Life
Proper blade break-in, tooth selection, tension, speed, feed control, coolant management, and machine maintenance can help minimize premature wear and extend blade service life.
