RO6G Urethane Bandsaw Tyres are workshop replacement tyres for 14 inch band saw wheels, designed to improve blade tracking and cut consistency. Small workshops and hobby woodworkers gain cleaner cuts and reduced vibration, with less time spent retrimming blades. Are these tyres the right upgrade for older Jet, Grizzly and Powermatic saws?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Cutting Quality: Uniform thickness helps blades stay centred for more accurate, repeatable cuts
- • Best for: Hobby woodworkers and small workshop owners working on compatible 14 in saws
- • Not ideal for: Saws with wheel diameters outside the 13.5 in to 14.5 in range or non-standard tyre widths
Tyres fit 14 in wheels requiring a 1 in wide, 3/32 in thick tyre and install without adhesive. Bright orange urethane maintains crowning and reduces blade damage from wheel contact.
More accurate cuts - with uniform thickness urethane surface
Uniform thickness across the tyre width maintains even contact with the wheel, allowing the blade to track centrally. The urethane material and crowning create consistent pressure along the blade edge while avoiding hard metal contact.
Straighter, cleaner cuts and reduced need for frequent realignment, so less waste and faster finishing.
Quicker maintenance - with no-adhesive, slip-on fit
Tyres sized for standard 14 in wheels slip over the rim and require no adhesive, compatible with wheel diameters of about 13 1/2 in to 14 1/2 in. The supplied pair replaces worn tyres without lengthy cure times.
Faster tyre swaps mean less downtime between jobs and a quicker return to accurate cutting.
Longer blade life - thanks to urethane traction and crowning
Urethane offers excellent traction and a crowned profile that reduces blade oscillation and prevents direct metal-on-blade contact. Even pressure distribution helps avoid localised wear and blade nicking.
Reduced vibration and fewer blade damage incidents extend blade life and cut costs over time.
✨ The 4 Key Reasons for RO6G Urethane Bandsaw Tyres
- Uniform thickness - Reduces blade drift, producing straighter cuts and fewer resaws
- No adhesive fit - Saves workshop time with quick tyre swaps in minutes
- High-traction urethane - Minimises slippage, improving cutting efficiency and lowering vibration
- Bright orange finish - Makes inspections easier, spotting wear before problems occur

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will these tyres fit my 14 in band saw?
A: They fit 14 in band saw wheels that require a 1 in wide and 3/32 in thick tyre, with actual wheel diameters typically between 13 1/2 in and 14 1/2 in. The listed compatible models include Jet, Grizzly and Powermatic, but the list is not exhaustive.
Q: Do the tyres require glue or adhesive to install?
A: No adhesive is required, the tyres are designed for a slip-on fit so installation is quicker and avoids waiting for glue to cure.
Q: Will these tyres improve blade tracking and lifespan?
A: Yes, uniform thickness and urethane traction improve blade tracking and crowning, which helps eliminate blade damage from wheel contact and can extend blade life.
🏆 Our Verdict
Suitable for hobbyists and small workshops that use 14 in band saws requiring a 1 in wide, 3/32 in thick tyre. Uniform urethane construction, adhesive-free installation and high traction make maintenance simpler while reducing vibration and blade damage. An economical upgrade that delivers long-term value through less downtime and extended blade life.
