Lenox 1609D2C12127 Band Saw Blade Coil 14-18 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 1609D2C12127 is a bi-metal band saw blade coil stock designed for continuous cutting operations where custom blade lengths are required. The coil measures 100 feet in length and 1/2 inch wide with a 0.025 inch blade thickness, providing enough stock to cut multiple blades to length for a variety of band saw frames. The toothed cutting edge features high speed steel teeth with a wavy tooth set and a variable pitch pattern ranging from 14 to 18 teeth per inch (TPI). The flexible back construction reduces blade fatigue during contour and radius cuts.

This coil stock is suited for professional fabrication shops, metalworking operations, and maintenance facilities that run multiple band saws or require non-standard blade lengths. The variable 14-18 TPI pitch makes it well-suited for cutting a range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, thin-wall tubing, and structural shapes. Contour cutting capability means the blade handles both straight and curved cut paths. Technicians and machinists who braze or weld their own blades on-site will find the 100-foot coil a practical shop stock item.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with high speed steel teeth for extended edge life
• Variable pitch 14-18 TPI reduces vibration and improves cut quality across material thicknesses
• Wavy tooth set designed for cutting bundles, thin-wall sections, and structural profiles
• Flexible back reduces stress cracking during contour and radius cutting
• 100-foot coil allows custom blade lengths to be cut and welded on-site
• Toothed cutting edge style with 1/2 inch blade width and 0.025 inch blade thickness

Compatibility

Designed as coil stock for band saw machines that accept 1/2 inch wide blades. Blade lengths are cut to specification from the coil and joined using a blade welder or brazing fixture. Confirm wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and tensioning range on the specific band saw before sizing and welding blades from this coil.

Installation Notes

Blade cutting and welding should be performed by qualified machinists or tool room technicians familiar with band saw blade preparation. Power down and lock out the band saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Use appropriate blade-welding or brazing equipment and follow the band saw manufacturer's tensioning specifications when mounting the finished blade. Inspect the weld joint for straightness and integrity before operating the machine.
