Product Information:

These tires slip on without any special tools, messy adhesives, or excessive downtime.

Even under occasional use, the tires on band saw wheels periodically need to be replaced. Carter ULTRA BLUE™ Urethane Tires are made from the highest quality material to exacting standards. That’s why they deliver such outstanding performance and wear consistently for so long. Unlike rubber tires, which are cumbersome to replace, these slip on without any special tools, messy adhesives, or excessive downtime. Simply heat in hot soapy water and stretch the tire on to the wheel and the band saw is ready to use.


  • ULTRA BLUE urethane tires offer uniform thickness over entire width

  • Urethane tires provide greater durability and resistance to damage

  • Allows for optimum blade tracking

  • 7/8" wide x 3/32" thick tire may be trimmed for width

  • Includes one tire sized for most 14" band saws

    Comments about CARTER Urethane Tire For 14" Band Saw, 7/8" Wide :

    These tires do not fit all 14" bandsaws. Carter does not provide a list either. I purchased these for a 14" Grizzly G0555 only to find out after installation that the tires move from side to side on the wheel if the wheel is slightly wider than the tires. Apparently this is a known issue and Carter's solution is to spot tack the tires to the wheels with epoxy. Why not just provide a warning for customers on the packaging. Disappointing from such a quality company. A waste of time and money. I would not recommend these tires because of Carter's failure to make the buyer aware of the possibility of movement.

    Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Comments about CARTER Urethane Tire For 14" Band Saw, 7/8" Wide :

    My Father gave me an 18 yr old bandsaw and all it needed were the tires. Instructions were very helpful. You have to let it warmup in hot soapy water for 5 min. and then put on. The top one went on fairly easy, but the bottom was harder. I ended up using two plastic grip clamps to hold my progress as I moved around the wheel. The blade runs true on the tires and I haven't had any problems.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about CARTER Urethane Tire For 14" Band Saw, 7/8" Wide :

    Getting rid of the stock rubber tires on my 12 year old 14" Jet and installing these urethane tires made a HUGE difference in the performance of my saw. For the first time, my blades track perfectly, even after long resawing sessions. Installation was easy - just folow the directions to the letter. It helps to have a second person to help hold the wheel as the new tire goes on.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Installed on a Delta 14" with riser blocks. Took a while to get the trick of installing on the first one, but the second went quickly. READ and FOLLOW the instructions which are included and pretty well written.
