Band Saw Blade Questions - G1019Z

[Bruce Irwin]

I bought a G1019Z and riser kit many years ago and finally need to buy some new blades. Unfortunately, I cannot remember if I should buy 105" or 106" blades - I remember seeing various discussion group posts when I bought it that indicate a 105" blade, but Grizzly says 106".

Are there any of you that still have a G1019Z with a riser kit and can help me with which length blad that you are using?

I plan on buying Lenox Diemaster 2 blades if that helps - 1/2", 4 tpi, and .025" thick.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Bruce

This link to Grizzly riser kit for your saw says it includes a 106" blade. Is that the kit you used?

Jim,

Yes it is, thanks for finding the link. Didn't think to look in their outlet section.

I will write the blade length on the door of the bandsaw.

Thanks for your help
