Upgrade your Excalibur-style Scroll Saw with the Pegas Blade Clamps - Wildly popular for making blade changes faster, these blade chucks are made from superior aeronautical grade aluminum and are 30% lighter. Also works on DeW...
Upgrade your Scroll Saw with Pegas Blade Chuck Heads - 40% lighter, Less Vibration.
Set of Upper and Lower Scroll Saw Blade Clamp Replacements. These new “Blade Chuck Heads” (also known as Blade Clamps) were developed in Switzerland by Pégas in association with the HEIG engineering school in Yverdon. The studies and the tests demonstrated that the weight of these heads is in direct relation with the service life and the vibrations of the machine.
1) These new heads, manufactured with aeronautical aluminum for resilience and optimal weight, are 40 % lighter than you original Heads.
2) Vibration will be greatly reduced
3) Changing Blades is easier and faster
4) Better protection of the mechanical parts of the scroll saw.
As you can see, they are clearly more compact than original heads and even easier of use. The assembly of these new Heads is very simple and takes only a few minutes.
All parts are included to make this quick and simple replacement. Steve Good's review above also shows how to remove your existing blade clamps and install the new one.

I have an Excelsior 16" scroll saw and do a lot of fretwork. My original chuck head had worn out and I was told that in order to replace some or all of the parts, I'd have to order each piece separately! When I saw the Peas complete set, I ordered it for its simplicity and Pegas' reputation for quality. It really was easy to install and it's easy to use - no more fiddling to get the blade to hold and tension properly. The order was received promptly too.
Purchased these recently and they arrived with a bolt missing. After emailing, the bolt was couriered to me promptly - great service! These clamps exceeded my expectation - my saw is now fun to use. They make blade changing easy and the EX21 is now rapidly becoming my favourite to use after gathering dust for a year or more. I will recommend these clamps and Bear Wood to anyone interested
Was a little hesitant on ordering these for my Dewalt DW788. I'm so glad I did. Install was easy and fast. Didn't realize how worn out the original guides were. These are so much better. No slippage of blades. Quick release is so much better and faster for inserting blade through holes for fret work. My saw feels like a new saw. Well worth the investment.
What a difference your Chuck Heads make to our scroll saw experience! My wife makes wooden artwork and I make the frames. After a few months feeling a bit depressed about blades breakages, I decided to surprise her with the Pegas chuck heads, now she is powering through the stock and enjoying herself again - smiling...
I have an Excalibur EX21, only few months of use. It was vibrating and dancing all over my counter, until I replaced the chuck heads with Pegas chuck heads, WOW what a difference, saw doesn't even move now even at full speed, very impressed, and satisfied, wished I would have purchased the Pegas scroll saw instead.
Purchased a set for my Excalibur EX-21. Amazing difference from the stock blade clamps. Noticeably less vibration plus changing and clamping blades is a breeze. A very high quality product compared to the stock Excalibur versions. I highly recommend these as a must have item for any serious scroller!
I am very pleased with the Scroll Saw Chuck Heads for my Scroll Saw. They were very simple to install and they work flawlessly. Bear Woods Canada provided excellent service and it was unexpectedly quick getting shipped and I received it before expected. Thanks
I have and old excalibbur scroll saw with no quick blade change . Ordered and installed the Pegas chuck on it . It was very easy to install and it works great . The chuck is made with precision and of quality metal . I'm completely satisfied .
With the new heads I can now wear out a blade before breakage and do not have to tighten up the blade with the back adjustment on my Excalibur scroll saw. They may seem a bit pricey but you sure do get what you pay for, Thanks
I was experiencing blade slippage with the stock chuck
on my delta scroll saw and this pegas blade chuck fixed that problem and makes scrolling easier with the quick release lever. Highly recommend this chuck.
can not believe the diference the pegas chcks make. I can pit in and take out the blade in half the time. Also much easier to put on tension. I am not going through near as meny blades. keep up the good work
Very nice product. Installed easily and works great. Can you get me the 21" Scroll Saw through the Canadain branch, I really would like to get one. Please let me know, thank you.

Purchased this after seeing it demonstrated by Steve Good (Scroll saw workshop) on YouTube. Installed it on my Excalibur 30 . Works better than the original. I would highly recommend the Ss-Pegas-chuck.
The Pegas scroll saw heads are a great upgrade to my 30" scroll saw; the thumbscrews require minimal torque to hold the blades and tension is always the right amount. Very happy with the purchase.
Love the quality of the pegas chuck heads and the saw best one I've ever used many hundreds of hours and projects on the original chuck heads thanks for that
The Pegasus tension head for my Excalubur saw was easy to install and walks great. It took a little bit of time to get use to it but once I did it works great.
Installed the new chuck heads on my saw, less vibration, and somewhat easier to change blades. I recommend this product as an upgrade to your saw.
The Pegas scroll saw chuck heads fixed the problems with my Excaliber scroll saw like a charm. Very pleased. Saved me buying a new saw.
I am so glad we found these chuck heads; we were just about to write off our Excalibur scroll saws as dead. The chucks work great!
Very nice upgrade for my Excalibur scroll saw, vibration is significantly reduced. Easy install and simplified blade changing.
excellent service an great product, exceeded expectations on delivery of the goods, (fast and efficient)
Great Service,Friendly People,Never a Problem with any of my orders!..Keep up the Great Work and Thank You!
Very good service I had ordered from local service still no reply. You did very well.
