Bandsaw Tires

Q: How do I know what size bandsaw tire I need?

The tire size matches your bandsaw wheel diameter. 14 inch bandsaw uses 14 inch tires. Measure the wheel, not the tire. Available in 9, 10, 12, and 14 inch.

Q: How do I install new bandsaw tires?

Remove old tires, clean adhesive residue, stretch new urethane tire around the wheel rim starting at one point. No adhesive needed in most cases. Re-tension blade and check tracking.

Q: Will these fit my bandsaw brand?

Fits most major brands including Delta, Jet, Grizzly, Rikon, Craftsman, Ryobi, WEN, Central Machinery, Powermatic. Match wheel diameter to tire size.

Q: How do I know when my bandsaw tires need replacing?

Signs include blade tracking problems, visible cracks or hardening, flat spots, increased vibration, and difficulty making straight cuts.

Q: Do you offer custom sizes?

Yes. We manufacture in-house and can produce custom sizes. Contact us with wheel diameter and tire width for a quote.

Urethane bandsaw tires for woodworking and metalcutting bandsaws

Why Urethane Bandsaw Tires?

Bandsaw tires are the cushion between your blade and the wheel. When they wear out, crack, or harden, the blade loses tracking, cuts wander, and vibration increases — leading to rough cuts, broken blades, and wasted material. Urethane is the superior replacement material: it lasts significantly longer than rubber, maintains consistent grip on the blade, resists heat buildup from friction, and won't crack or dry rot over time the way rubber tires do.

Texas Belting manufactures our urethane bandsaw tires in-house at our Houston facility. We control the urethane compound, the bonding process, and the quality of every tire that ships. Each set includes two tires (upper and lower wheels) — ready to install on your bandsaw.

Urethane vs Rubber Bandsaw Tires

Here's why shops switch from rubber to urethane and never go back.

⏱️

Longer Lifespan

Urethane resists abrasion and wear far better than natural rubber. Tires last significantly longer before needing replacement — reducing downtime and the cost of frequent tire changes.

🎯

Better Blade Tracking

Urethane maintains consistent surface grip throughout its lifespan. The blade stays centered on the wheel, producing straighter cuts and less blade wander — especially important for precision woodworking and metalcutting.

🌡️

Heat Resistant

Friction between the blade and tire generates heat during extended cuts. Urethane handles this heat without softening, deforming, or developing flat spots — a common failure mode for rubber tires.

💪

No Cracking or Dry Rot

Rubber tires crack, harden, and dry rot over time — even sitting unused. Urethane stays flexible and resilient for years, whether your bandsaw runs daily or sits between projects.

🔇

Reduced Vibration

Urethane's consistent density and resilience dampen vibration better than worn rubber. Less vibration means smoother cuts, longer blade life, and quieter operation in your shop.

Made in Texas

Every tire is manufactured in-house at our Houston facility using premium urethane compound. We control quality from raw material to finished product — not a generic import.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know what size bandsaw tire I need?▼

The tire size matches your bandsaw's wheel diameter. A 14" bandsaw uses 14" tires, a 9" bandsaw uses 9" tires, and so on. If you're unsure, measure the diameter of the wheel (not the tire) on your bandsaw. We carry 9", 10", 12", and 14" sizes — covering the most common benchtop and floor-standing bandsaws.

How do I install new bandsaw tires?▼

Remove the old tires by peeling them off the wheels. Clean any adhesive residue from the wheel surface. Stretch the new urethane tire around the wheel rim — start at one point and work around the circumference. The urethane stretches enough to fit over the rim without adhesive in most cases. Re-tension your blade and check tracking before making cuts.

Will these fit my bandsaw brand?▼

Our urethane bandsaw tires fit most major bandsaw brands including Delta, Jet, Grizzly, Rikon, Craftsman, Ryobi, WEN, Central Machinery, Powermatic, and many more. As long as the wheel diameter matches the tire size, they will fit. If you have questions about your specific model, call us at 888-203-2358.

How do I know when my bandsaw tires need replacing?▼

Common signs include: blade won't stay centered on the wheel (tracking problems), visible cracks or hardening on the tire surface, flat spots or uneven wear, increased vibration during cuts, and difficulty getting clean straight cuts. If your rubber tires have hardened, cracked, or developed flat spots, it's time to replace them with urethane.

Do you offer custom sizes?▼

Yes. Since we manufacture our urethane bandsaw tires in-house, we can produce custom sizes for bandsaws that don't match our standard 9", 10", 12", or 14" offerings. Contact us with your wheel diameter and tire width — we'll quote a custom set.
