The carbide-tipped PROFIDUR® band saw blade – developed for precise machining of beams as well as round and hollow profiles.

WIKUS highlight at Blechexpo 2025: Band saw blade for industrial sheet metal processing

At this year’s Blechexpo, Europe’s largest band saw blade manufacturer WIKUS once again presented its extensive range of professional band saw blades for all types of metal machining. A particular highlight for visitors was the coated high-performance PROFIDUR^® band saw blade, which is especially suitable for cutting beams, round, and hollow profiles.

Spangenberg, October 25, 2025: With an extensive range of sawing solutions for professional use in the metal industry, WIKUS was once again an exhibitor at the biennial Blechexpo, the international trade fair for sheet metal working. High-performance band saw blades are essential for the efficient and cost-effective processing of sheet metal and profiles. One highlight for visitors was the coated carbide-tipped saw blade PROFIDUR^®, which was developed specifically for this area of application and is also suitable for machining steel profiles and beams. It combines high durability with precise cutting quality.

PROFIDUR^®: Maximum cutting performance and long blade-life

The sophisticated tooth geometry and hard coating of PROFIDUR^® enable a considerable increase in capacity thanks to maximum cutting performance, even under demanding conditions. At the same time, blade-life is extended, thereby sustainably improving productivity for serial cuts and large projects. The precision-ground geometry for interrupted cuts ensures efficient chip removal, thereby preventing disruptions during machining. This results in low-burr, dimensionally accurate cuts that require only minimal reworking—if any at all.

PROFIDUR^® noticeably reduces noise emissions during the sawing process and thus contributes to better working conditions. The WIKUS saw blade thus offers a combination of increased performance, extended service life, and precise cutting quality—a robust and efficient solution for industrial steel fabrication.
