SKALAR X3000 bandsaw blade

The high-performer for high-strength materials

For manufacturers working with high-strength steels, tool steels, or special alloys, the SKALAR X3000 is the blade built to keep up. Developed exclusively by WIKUS, this next-generation bimetal band saw blade features a re-engineered tooth tip material that delivers significantly higher hardness and wear resistance than traditional M42 blades — without compromising on toughness.

Paired with a carrier band made from high-grade alloyed tempering steel, the X3000® ensures reliable performance in continuous operation. The result? Longer blade life, faster cuts, and reduced machine downtime — even in the most demanding cutting environments.

If you’re pushing the limits of material and machine, the SKALAR® X3000® is the blade that won’t hold you back.

Bandsaw Blade Structure

As with all SKALAR® band saw blades, the high cutting performance of the SKALAR X3000 bandsaw blade is based not only on the special properties of the cutting material, but also on the specially adjusted tooth geometry, a slightly increased positive rake angle and the optimum setting sequence

In addition, an increase in stability in the backing material supports high blade-life, especially when sawing difficult-to-machine, high-alloy materials such as quenched and tempered, annealed, carbon steels with tensile strengths greater than 1000N/mm².

 

Materials

    • Nickel-based alloys
    • Titanium / titanium alloys
    • Tempered steels (over 1000 N/mm² / 32 HRC)
    • Rust-proof and acid-resistant steels (austenitic)
    • Duplex and heat-resistant steels
    • Aluminium bronzes

Application

  • High cutting performance with high-alloy austenitic materials
  • Continuous operation on large sawmills and on large blocks
  • Especially for mixing programs with a large material mix
  • Also for difficult-to-machine non-ferrous special alloys
  • ESU material, materials above 1000 N/mm2 tensile strength

Advantages

  • High productivity due to excellent cutting rates
  • Lower cutting forces, smooth running and straight cutting surfaces
  • Optimal tip geometry for chip division
  • Fewer blade changes due to increased blade-life

Features

  • Ground contour with specially matched tooth pitch
  • Tooth edge made of the cutting material X3000® with positive rake angle
  • Special set for optimal chip division
  • High hardness, wear resistance and toughness due to the cutting material X3000®
