Idea Converting a vertical wood band saw to metal cutting
#19
If there is any issue with heat on the urethane tires, I have not see one. I used the urethane as that is what seems to be the popular choice these days, and the tires on the saw when I got it may very well have been original. They were ancient, cracked, pretty hard, and generally icky.

That said, I don't run this all day like someone in a commercial shop or whatever and admit I am no expert. So I'd not say it can't happen but I think if the blade was getting hot enough to damage the tires you may have some larger problem going on.
