Band saw tires

[MikeH]

I need to replace the worn out tires on my old Delta/Rockwell 10" bandsaw. I did a search on Google and came up wit quite a few places that sell them.

What is your opinion on rubber vs. urethane?

Where is the best place to buy band saw tires?

I went with rubber tires.

I think the cheaper cost makes up for the bit of extra work it took to get them on.

I use a shopsmith bandsaw, so not really able to recommend a mfg.

I got the urethane ones from Iturra design. No web site. The rubber doesn't last as long, but I can't say that I would buy the urethane again either just because of that.

Carter...urethane

Very easy installation on my 14"

klingspor has the urethene and that's what i have on my old delta.
they do last and are easier to clean up
