New From Dakin-Flathers

Engineered to redefine the limits of bandsaw blades, the all-new Ripper37 Quantum from Dakin-Flathers promises unmatched precision, efficiency, and above all, durability for resawing lumber like never before the manufacturer says, lasting twice as long as the Lenox Woodmaster C.

 “The exit of Lenox Woodmaster C from the market presented us with a big challenge. We wanted to provide an alternative for the market, and specifically for Lenox customers, which is not only as good as Lenox Woodmaster C, but which is a massive improvement. We invested huge resources into R&D, innovation, new technologies and rapid prototyping. In independent tests, Quantum lasts twice as long as Woodmaster C and three times as long as the nearest competitor. We have patented the new technology and the product, and really look forward to working with our partners to help them grow their sales and market share,” Oliver Garside, Managing Director, Dakin-Flathers.

Produced in aerospace-controlled temperature conditions using the world’s first gaseous phase control: The new heat treatment process results in exceptionally low levels of oxidization producing a near-perfect grain structure for exceptional longevity and cutting performance. Dakin-Flathers is the world’s largest manufacturer of carbon bandsaw blades dedicated to delivering innovative, high-performance bandsaw blades.

Ripper37 Quantum is currently available in 1 in. x 2 hook to cater predominantly for pallet manufacturing with multi-head sawmills, though it is suitable for many other resaw applications. Customers can order the product through our authorized global network of distributors.
