Wikus Taurus 1-5/8" x .050 x 2-3 T is a custom welded carbide-tipped bandsaw blade configuration for higher-output sawing, difficult materials, and carbide-capable machines. This page is quote-driven because the finished blade price depends on the saw length, blade dimensions, tooth pitch, weld requirement, material, and cutting goal.
- Buyers matching a custom welded Wikus blade to higher-output sawing, difficult materials, and carbide-capable machines
- saw operators trying to reduce blade changes, vibration, jamming, or finish problems
- maintenance and purchasing teams replacing blades by saw length, width, thickness, and tooth pitch
- shops that want a guided blade recommendation before ordering welded bands
Wikus Taurus 1-5/8" x .050 x 2-3 T: custom welded carbide-tipped blade configuration selected by material, saw, length, width, thickness, and tooth pitch. Choose this configuration when the blade must be welded to the machine length and selected around the actual cutting condition.
Why This Model
Blade selection starts with the job, not only the blade name. The saw model, blade length, material grade, workpiece contact length, and whether the cut is solid or interrupted all change the right recommendation.
After the correct Taurus blade is matched to the application, shops can improve cut consistency, reduce premature tooth failure, and lower cost per cut.

What This Solves
- Better blade matching. The quote process confirms saw, material, blade length, blade size, tooth pitch, and workpiece condition before the blade is made.
- Fewer cutting surprises. Matching tooth pitch to contact length helps reduce vibration, tooth stripping, jamming, and poor finish.
- Cleaner reorder path. Once the correct blade is proven, future quotes can reference the saw, blade length, selected series, and blade configuration.
Common Applications
- carbide sawing
- solid materials
- production cutting
- difficult materials
- high-output sawing
- custom welded blades

Common Questions
What is Wikus Taurus 1-5/8" x .050 x 2-3 T used for?
This Wikus blade configuration is used for higher-output sawing, difficult materials, and carbide-capable machines. The final blade must be matched to saw length, material, contact length, blade width, blade thickness, and tooth pitch.
Why is this blade quoted instead of purchased directly online?
Custom welded bandsaw blades require the exact blade length, weld requirement, saw model, material being cut, and tooth-pitch selection before the final selling price is confirmed.
How is tooth pitch selected?
Tooth pitch is selected by contact length in the workpiece, material group, machine condition, and whether the cut is solid, profile, layer, or bundle cutting.
What information is needed for a blade quote?
Provide saw make and model, blade length, current blade size, current blade performance, material grade, workpiece size, workpiece shape, bundling configuration, and the improvement goal.
