Ultimate power for the industrial woodworking shop. The South Bend SB1080 16" 3 HP resaw bandsaw accurately powers through hardwoods up to 14" thick with rack-and-pinion dual ball bearing guides and a precision-ground cast-iron fence with a dual-position 6" tall resaw attachment.

This could be the sturdiest machine in your shop. Its stout steel frame, computer-balanced cast-iron wheels, and extra-large 25-5/8" x 20-7/8" x 2" thick precision-ground cast-iron table and cast-iron trunnions all work together to minimize vibration and lead to greater accuracy and higher-quality work.

The table tilting mechanism is the strongest in the industry, allowing you to put the heaviest loads on the table without losing squareness.

Other high-end features such as dual dust ports, quick-release blade tension, and built-in storage, to name a few, are what take the SB1080 from a great saw to an outstanding piece of machinery.

The SB1080 bandsaw is built to true South Bend high-precision industrial standards and comes with a 2-year warranty.

The SB1080 manual was written by our U.S.-based Technical Documentation Department and is packed with useful information.

The South Bend Customer Service and Technical Support Teams are U.S.-based. Parts are available online and shipped from the South Bend parts warehouse in Springfield, MO.
