Lenox 1129MAC12127 Band Saw Blade Coil 18 Tpi 1/2 in

Product Description

The LENOX 1129MAC12127 is a bi-metal band saw blade coil stock designed for continuous-length cutting applications in metal fabrication and general trade use. The coil provides 250 feet of usable blade material, allowing technicians to cut custom blade lengths for a wide range of band saw frames. The blade is 1/2 inch wide and 0.020 inches thick, with a constant 18 teeth per inch (TPI) pitch and a wavy tooth set. The cutting teeth are high speed steel (HSS), fused to a flexible backing for durability through repeated flexing cycles during saw operation.

This coil stock is suited for job shops, maintenance operations, and service contractors who run multiple band saw sizes or require on-demand blade fabrication. The constant 18 TPI pitch is effective for cutting thin-wall tubing, conduit, structural shapes, and similar metal stock. The flexible back construction reduces blade fatigue and breakage during contouring cuts. Contour cutting capability is built in, making this coil appropriate for applications beyond straight cuts.

Key Features

• 250-foot coil provides stock for multiple custom-length blades
• Bi-metal construction: high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible alloy back
• 18 TPI constant pitch for consistent chip load on thin to medium metal sections
• Wavy tooth set reduces blade noise and vibration during cuts
• Flexible back design resists fatigue and extends blade service life
• Contour cutting capable for curved or radius cuts

Compatibility

Designed as coil stock for field-cut band saw blades; compatible with 1/2-inch blade-width band saw frames that accept bi-metal blade stock. Verify frame wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and blade tension specifications before cutting and welding to length.

Installation Notes

Blade cutting and welding to length should be performed by a qualified technician using a blade welder and appropriate grinding equipment. Disconnect and lock out power to the band saw before installing or removing any blade. Confirm blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer's guidelines after installation. Improper blade tension or misaligned tracking can result in premature blade failure or personal injury.
