Lenox 12883D2B123912 Welded Bandsaw Blade 6 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 12883D2B123912 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding contour and straight cutting across a wide range of materials. Measuring 154 inches in length and 0.5 inches wide, it runs at 6 teeth per inch with a hook tooth form and positive rake angle for aggressive stock removal. The blade body is spring steel with M42 high speed steel teeth, a combination that resists heat and abrasion during extended cutting cycles. A single-level tooth set and 0.058-inch kerf width deliver controlled, consistent cuts with minimal material waste. This blade is part of the LENOX Classic series and is sold as a single welded loop ready to mount.

This blade is suited for metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and industrial cutting applications. Its bi-metal construction handles a broad range of workpiece materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood. The 6 TPI constant pitch and milled toothed edge make it a practical choice for general-purpose bandsaw work where a single blade must cover varied cross-sections and material types.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-mount welded bandsaw blade for bandsaws accepting a 154-inch blade loop with a 0.5-inch blade width. Verify your machine's blade length specification and wheel spacing before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with bandsaw blade handling and tensioning procedures. Power down and lock out the machine before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Use appropriate cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled or looped blade. Follow the bandsaw manufacturer's tensioning and tracking guidelines; improper tension can lead to blade drift or premature fatigue failure.
