Not sure if this is the right group for this:

Where do I find information concerning specifications (types, uses,
horsepower requirements) for blades in the 32" to 48" range? Primary
use will be in a cross cut fashion.

Just point me where to look, or proper key words for a successful google
search.

Thanks in advance!



I hope that you're talking about bandsaw blades, not saw blades...
unless you own a sawmill..

Not talking about bandsaw blades...not useable for the application.




Sawmills don't have a lot of use for crosscut blades. There are several
companies specializing in large blades for sawmills, but they're rip
blades,
not crosscut, AFAIK.

And they use rip blades to cut the ends of the board off or to cut shorter
boards?

Buzz saws also use crosscut blades, 30 inch maybe larger.

That's what I am looking for...didn't know if they were that or not. I
found a few leads off the 'buzz saw' word. Thanks!
