Powermatic PM2013B 20 inch bandsaw gives shops a heavy-duty saw built for serious cutting and resawing. The spacious cast iron table provides more room in front of the blade, so large workpieces stay fully supported during long cuts, keeping material stable through the entire cut line. Solid cast iron upper and lower wheels create the momentum needed for heavy resaw, helping the blade track smoothly so tall stock feeds consistently. A heavy-duty 5 HP motor provides the power needed for all projects, letting the saw maintain speed under load during demanding cuts. Together, this 20 inch format, cast iron build, and 5 HP drive turn the saw into a central machine for daily production tasks in woodworking shops.
The PM2013B bandsaw is configured as a 5 HP, 1Ph, 230V machine, so the motor is designed around single-phase 230-volt shop power. This electrical specification lets the saw integrate into shops wired for 230V single-phase service without additional motor changes. The heavy-duty 5 HP motor gives the bandsaw strong cutting capacity once wired to appropriate power, supporting both general curves and heavy resaw tasks while maintaining blade speed. With this 1Ph, 230V setup and robust drive, shops can position the machine where power is available and expect consistent performance on a wide range of woodworking projects.
The PM2013B 20 inch bandsaw belongs in woodworking environments where large workpieces and heavy resawing are routine. The spacious, heavy-duty cast iron table with more room in front of the blade supports long components, so parts such as wide panels or tall blocks stay flat as they travel through the cut. Solid cast iron upper and lower wheels create the momentum needed for heavy resaw, which benefits shops that regularly slice thicker stock or reprocess lumber into thinner sections. The heavy-duty 5 HP motor provides power needed for all projects, making the saw suited to tasks ranging from general curve cutting to demanding straight-line resawing. Together, the 20 inch format, cast iron construction, and high-power motor align with the needs of cabinet, furniture, and millwork operations that run bandsaws as core production machines.
The PM2013B bandsaw uses the exclusive Powermatic T-square style Accu-Fence to maximize accuracy and safety, giving operators a stable, straight reference that helps keep rip and resaw cuts on line across long passes. This Accu-Fence design supports repeatable setups, which is important for jobs requiring multiple identical parts. The foot brake with magnetic switch interrupt provides a hands-free stopping option, letting users slow and stop the blade using foot control so hands stay focused on guiding the work. Blade tension release with electrical interlock prevents the bandsaw from starting when the blade is de-tensioned, helping protect the blade and machine by avoiding start-up in an un-tensioned state. Combined with the solid cast iron wheels that create the momentum needed for heavy resaw and the heavy-duty 5 HP motor that supplies power needed for all projects, these details support a workflow aimed at accurate, controlled, and consistent cutting throughout the workday.
The PM2013B bandsaw is specified as 5 HP, 1Ph, 230V, so it is designed to run on single-phase 230-volt power, aligning with typical 230V shop electrical service.
The spacious, heavy-duty cast iron table provides more room in front of the blade, keeping large workpieces supported so long cuts stay stable and controlled across the surface.
The solid cast iron upper and lower wheels create the momentum needed for heavy resaw, helping the blade maintain steady motion so tall stock feeds smoothly through the cut.
The exclusive Powermatic T-square style Accu-Fence maximizes accuracy and safety by giving a rigid, aligned reference edge, supporting straight, repeatable rip and resaw cuts.
The blade tension release with electrical interlock prevents the bandsaw from starting when the blade is de-tensioned, protecting the cutting setup and reducing the chance of improper start-up.
The foot brake with magnetic switch interrupt offers a hands-free stopping option, letting the operator control blade stopping by foot while maintaining hand control on the workpiece.
The Powermatic PM2013B 20 inch bandsaw pairs a spacious, heavy-duty cast iron table with solid cast iron wheels and a heavy-duty 5 HP, 1Ph, 230V motor, giving shops momentum and power for heavy resaw and general cutting. The exclusive T-square style Accu-Fence, blade tension release with electrical interlock, and foot brake with magnetic switch interrupt support accurate, controlled, and safer operation. For woodworking environments that depend on consistent cutting performance, this configuration offers a bandsaw built around real production needs.
