    Carbatec do have spares for some jet tools they used to sell but don’t anymore. If the part is not big and heavy, check out getting it from the US or UK, may be faster and cheaper.

    If you are looking to replace your band saw tyres, you may consider the Blue Carter Urethane units. Since I've changed over, my band saw hasn't missed a beat and it works every time all the time.

    This is a thread I started a couple of years ago, the second page has some pictures of how I changed them.

    Urethane Band Saw tyres (tires)

    I emailed Carter direct and received an answer unbelievably quick; so responsive and with good information.

    Doing the current sums, it would seem that even with freight, you will be better off going direct; but that is your choice.

    if it is a bandsaw, very few of the parts will be brand specific.
    Any thing with sharp teeth eats meat.
    Most powertools have sharp teeth.
    People are made of meat.
    Abrasives can be just as dangerous as a blade.....and 10 times more painfull.
