Default cutting nylon

I need to cut a gentle curve through the long dimension of several
1/2"x1/2"x1" pieces of hard nylon stock (making soft jaws for bending
pliers). I tried using a bandsaw and the two pieces welded together
behind the blade. Is there a lubricant I can use that will keep the
stuff from melting while I cut it?
