Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bandsaw blade finishing stone used for?

It rounds and smooths the back of a bandsaw blade so the blade can cut tighter radii and leave a smoother finish on the workpiece. It also corrects weld misalignment and removes mushrooming. See more band saw accessories.

How do I use the finishing stone?

Lay the side of the wood handle on the saw table surface, then place the silicon carbide stone against the back of the running blade to round off the edges and correct any weld misalignment.

Does the stone require lubrication?

No lubrication is needed. The silicon carbide stone is used dry against the back of the blade.

What is the stone made of?

It is a silicon carbide stone fitted with a wood handle for safe, easy positioning against the blade.

Does it help with tight radius cutting?

Yes. By rounding the back corners of the blade, it permits tighter radius cutting and provides a smoother finish on the workpiece during radius cuts.

Can it fix a rough or uneven blade weld?

Yes. It smooths off uneven welds and corrects weld misalignment on the back of the blade.

How does it protect my bandsaw?

By removing the mushrooming on the back of the blade and rounding its edges, it prevents excessive wear on the thrust bearings, helping the saw last longer. Find more shop maintenance supplies.

What is blade mushrooming and why does it matter?

Mushrooming is the burr that forms on the back of the blade from pressure against the thrust bearings. Left unchecked it worsens wear; the stone removes it for smoother, longer-lasting operation.

Who makes this finishing stone?

It is made by Infinity Cutting Tools. Browse related saw blades & accessories.

Is the finishing stone worth it for occasional bandsaw users?

Yes. Even occasional radius cutting benefits from a rounded blade back, and a single inexpensive stone improves cut quality while protecting the thrust bearings over time.
