For most 14" Band saws including Sears Craftsman 14", Jet, Grizzly, Ridgid. Cool blocks blade guides are made from a high tech, non-metallic composite material, "graphite impregnated phenolic laminate" Which contains three synthetic dry lubricants that lubricate the blade but do not make it oily. The metal to metal contact made by old metal guide blocks creates heat and friction which cause premature blade wear and breakage.

For example a ½” Cool Block may measure 0.45”.This is to allow for expansion due to humidity.

These are replacements for the worn out OEM cool blocks in my Harbor Freight 14 In., 4 Speed Woodworking Band Saw. These new blocks seem to be much better than the originals. I'm talking about when the saw was new of course. The blade seems to track much better with these blocks, I couldn't believe the difference. I'm no Steve Ramsey or Matthias Wandel or John Heisz or Izzy Swan and a host of others but I definitely noticed an improvement with these blocks. I would purchase these again.

Bought these for my Jet 14" bandsaw as I had to resaw a bunch of 2x6 white oak. I planned on getting the Carter guide bearings but so far these blocks are working great. Everything is properly adjusted I have hardly any wear on the blocks. After resawing 100 linear feet the blocks don't need adjusted yet. Will buy them again if I they hold up like this.

I've got a fairly cheap 14" bandsaw that came with metal guide blocks. These were very easy to swap in, although I did have to shim them with a little card stock, as they are a little undersized compared to the stock blocks.
Still, once in, they are great. Since they are low friction, you can get them much closer to the blade than stock blocks, meaning overall better blade support. I'm a fan.
