ABSTRACT:
A clamping assembly for clamping a block of wearable material for guiding a band saw blade to maintain the blade in alignment at a working station. The block of wearable material is formed with a dovetail adjacent a rear face remote from the wearing face of the block, and the clamping assembly includes clamping elements having inclined surfaces mating with the inclined surfaces of the dovetail to provide clamping and gripping forces and inwardly directed drawing forces in the block. The clamping elements are separated in the clamping region by a gap permitting them to be drawn towards one another and thereby to exert a clamping force on the dovetail of the block of wearable material. The clamping elements are dimensioned so that one element behaves as a cantilever spaced from the other element, which thereby maintains a fixed relationship with a supporting datum surface. The clamping elements may be integral with one another or provided with contacting surfaces adjacent the rear face thereof.
