Hunter's Moon it would only get rusty from trying to insert the shaft into the wrong bearing, the front one is self lubricating dependent on the strength of the shaft however the rear one, especially if it’s never been used with the original shaft tends to resist the first insertion, this is where the lubrication comes into play, if you have some lube, you will probably find the shaft goes in and out very cleanly otherwise with a dry fit, especially on the first insertion and withdrawal, without lube tends to lead to rust spots, especially with a brand new bearing.

I use these all the time for work. You are completely right about the wheel radius being an issue. Over the past year we have snapped hundreds of bands. These are Hilti brand bands too and they always snap at the weld. The bigger sizes are fine, it’s only the mini that does it because the band is too hard for that radius. I was thinking that annealing the band while keeping the teeth hard would fix it but I’m not sure how to go about doing that.

The choice of a polyester could also be to do with the overmold material compatability, something similar to duponts hytrel (copolyester based thermoplastic elastomer) likely for the rubbery bit the blade runs on. The compatability of materials is important to form a strong chemical bond for overmolding rather than relying on a mechanical join. especially on those fast moving rollers that will likely heat up a wee bitty and pull in gubbins from cutting.

@steffenb3306

5 жыл бұрын

In general you are right. I just would like to add that PBT in these applications is selected because of its better dimensional stability compared to PA. It does not absorb moisture so it does not warp as much as PA. There are also many thermoplastic elastomers which bond perfectly to PA so i dont think thats the main reason. Molding PBT is not easier to injection mold btw

How long do your blades last? I bought this tool last year and went through a blade in a month or less. I went through like 11 blades in a year. There where times were I barely used it for weeks and the blade still broke in a month or so. I was very disappointed and let down by this. So I sold it and all my hilti 22v tools and went milwaukee. I use the mini bandsaw and am on my second one in more than 4 months and I use it all the time. Other than the blades constantly breaking the tool was awesome, I just can’t afford 10-12 blades a year.

A note on these batteries. I worked with Hilti tooling for a couple of years and these batteries really surprized me with how long the last and how quikley they charge. Also all the cordless tools I worked with seemed to hold up really well but what really annoyed me was the fact that every new tool we got seemed to have its own type of battery. Every god damm drill needet another battery the big ones different that the small ones.Only the last cordless kit we got finnaly had an intermediary (new) battery type that at least fit both tools in the kit. To me this really is a drawback not being able to get a bunch of bateries and just use them on whatever tool needs juce at the moment.

Interesting to hear your take on the batteries. We use hilti at work, and after a few silica showers the release buttons stop activating the lights. some of the batteries even have burnt out leds.

Your channel so perfectly displays the exact way all things should be taught, in a manner which provokes "us" to ask the ultimate question...WHY. if you understand why then you can figure out how.

It's heartening to know "hands down the best comment section on youtube," is made up entirely of stoners.

I personally like the older generation of the milcocky type of the portaband, it was kinda similar to the Hilti, but cheaper parts and a stiffer construction. Used it to part off everything from electrical conduit to whatever steel or black iron square or round tube I could fit it on. Beats dragging the big boy around the shop or a big part to it. Could just slide the tube out the rack, measure off and cut. As much as I love my new job, I miss my old job a lot

Just -- wow! Portable bandsaw! Bandsaws are usually huge, permanent installations -- I have never seen a portable one before. Ordinarily I would have expected to have to use a jigsaw for cuts in awkward places, and of course a jigsaw blade moves in both directions -- sometimes that can be awkward. My last job was in the R&D lab of an electronics factory, and one time we had a lad from one of the local schools visiting for a week's work experience; so we arranged for him to see the whole process of designing and making up a prototype PCB. He was a nice enough kid, and got his head around concepts quickly enough; but he was just a bit squeamish about the sight of molten solder or fast-moving cutting tools so close to delicate human flesh. When I demonstrated freehand bandsawing a piece of PCB laminate, the poor kid was physically sick, bless him. Hey, I knew my fingers were staying put .....

Every Hilty I have ever used was solid and old and still working hard. Even used a Hilty electric jackhammer.

True, last tool renter had a very large selection of Hilti tools, and i didn't look for them specifically, i just went by word of mouth to the cheapest price per lowest time rented (only needed a heavier duty impacter for my yard).

Hilti is too expensive in power tools their fasteners are expensive but their anchors always pass inspection without slipping or shearing. I’m a union electrician and we beat the tools until they break. Your videos are awesome and knowledgeable.

I'm going to assume that the shot at this old Tony is horse play because you two are my favorite tubers

Had some of these for a few jobs, essentially cutting 3/4" & 1" emt and also 1 5/8 unistrut and the blades would break constantly. Tool was fine to use, no complaints there but having to replace the blade so often became very frustrating. The rep would literally bring in blades by the case load... and i'm sure that wasn't cheap either.

My local HSS Hire over the pond, here; up to the rafters with Hitli, Hitlr, Hilti.

Thank you for the new user ID name idea. Sincerely, Rusty Shaft.

A relative of mine has a metal construction business, making all kinds of big structures, they first had Makitas but after the batteries started dying and the new batteries didn't fit the old tools they switched to Hiltis. One day as I was building a CNC machine for him I needed a big piece of steel grating, the kind they use for walkways and I asked where was a big angle grinder to cut it, but one of the guys said "I've got something better", his gives me this small Hilti battery circular saw with a coarse pitch tooth blade, that thing cut through it like butter, probably took like under 10 sec to cut 3 feet of this 1/6 by 1 inch steel bar grating and at no point felt like there wasn't enough power.

The rental spots around me mostly got Makita power hand tools, Milwaukee hole hogs, and Bosch Hammer Drills.

My roommate is an electrician, uses this size bandsaw on conduit and studs every day. If you never cut anything bigger than a stud it's just the right size
