Lenox 1772327 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1772327 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop and fabrication environments. The blade measures 11 feet 5 inches in length and 1 inch in width, with a 0.035-inch thickness and a variable pitch of 4 to 6 TPI. The M42+ high speed steel tooth material delivers extended edge life when cutting hard and abrasive materials. A positive rake angle and Vari-Raker tooth set work together to reduce vibration and improve chip evacuation on a wide range of metal stock. Licensed trades, machine operators, and fabricators working with production bandsaws are the primary installers and users of this blade.

This blade is suited for production and job-shop bandsaw applications where material variety demands a versatile cutting profile. The variable pitch design reduces harmonic vibration during cuts through solid bar stock, structural sections, and tubing. It is appropriate for horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines commonly found in HVAC fabrication shops, pipe shops, and general metalworking facilities. The blade does not support contour cutting and is intended for straight stock cutting only.

Key Features

• M42+ high speed steel teeth for extended blade life on tough metals
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch reduces harmonic vibration and improves cut quality
• Vari-Raker tooth set promotes consistent chip clearance and reduced heat buildup
• Positive rake angle improves cutting aggression on alloy and tool steels
• Spring steel back for fatigue resistance during continuous production use
• QXP series construction rated for a broad material application range

Compatibility

Designed as a welded-loop replacement bandsaw blade for production horizontal and vertical metal-cutting bandsaw machines accepting a 1-inch-wide blade with an 11-foot-5-inch loop length.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified machine operator or tradesperson familiar with the specific saw model. Disconnect and lock out all power to the bandsaw before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Verify wheel diameter, blade width capacity, and blade length specifications match the machine before mounting. Always confirm blade tension and tracking per the machine manufacturer guidelines before returning the saw to service.
