Lenox 14229RPB154570 Welded Bandsaw Blade 15 Ft

Product Description

The LENOX 14229RPB154570 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding cutting applications in metal fabrication and industrial environments. Built on the RX Plus series platform, it features a spring steel back with M42 high speed steel teeth, combining flexibility with edge retention. The blade runs 15 feet in total length with a 1-1/4 inch width and 0.042 inch thickness. Variable pitch tooth geometry at 3 to 4 TPI helps reduce vibration and harmonic noise during cuts, making it well-suited for interrupted cuts and varying cross-sections. Licensed metalworking technicians and fabrication professionals are the primary installers and operators of this blade.

This blade is designed for horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines used in metal cutting applications where a bi-metal blade is specified. The variable pitch and Vari-Set tooth configuration make it effective across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is intended for production environments, job shops, and maintenance facilities where consistent straight cuts on solid stock, structural shapes, or tubing are required. The 15-foot length fits mid-size industrial bandsaws that accept this standard blade dimension.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42 high speed steel teeth for extended blade life on hard materials
• Spring steel back provides flexibility and resistance to blade fatigue
• Variable pitch (3 to 4 TPI) with Vari-Set tooth set reduces vibration and improves cut quality
• 0.070 inch kerf width for efficient material removal
• Positive tooth rake angle supports aggressive cutting on metal stock
• Welded blade in RX Plus series for consistent weld integrity and tracking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit welded bandsaw blade for industrial bandsaw machines accepting a 15-foot by 1-1/4 inch bi-metal blade. Verify your saw's wheel diameter and blade guide spacing before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade replacement should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with the specific saw model. Power down and lockout/tagout the machine completely before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade, as edges are sharp. Set blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer's specifications before resuming operation.
