The Kasto SBA 260 AU is a used horizontal band saw — sometimes referred to as a metal cutting band saw or a horizontal bandsaw — a machine type designed to cut metal stock, bar, tube, and profiles to length using a continuous toothed blade running over two wheels in a horizontal cutting plane. Kasto is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing band saws, circular saws, and automated sawing systems primarily for the metalworking and engineering industries, and their machines are widely used in fabrication shops, steelworks, and industrial cutting operations worldwide.
This particular example was manufactured in 1995 and is offered in used condition from a location in Portugal. Three units are available from the same stock, which may be of interest to buyers equipping multiple workstations or seeking a spare machine.
The saw offers a cutting capacity of 230 × 400 mm for straight cuts, with angular cutting capacity of 230 × 230 mm, giving it a useful range for mid-sized bar, section, and tube work. The blade dimensions are 27 × 3.035 mm. The machine runs on 380 V three-phase power and is driven by a 1.5 hp motor. Four blade speeds are available — 25, 40, 50, and 70 metres per minute — allowing the operator to select an appropriate cutting speed for different materials and cross-sections, with slower speeds typically suited to harder or tougher alloys and faster speeds to softer or non-ferrous materials. The machine weighs 1,300 kg.
