Lenox 1772332 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1772332 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in industrial and fabrication environments. Measuring 11 feet 11 inches long and 1 inch wide with a 0.035-inch thickness, it fits a range of vertical and horizontal band saws in that size class. The blade runs a variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch with a Vari-Raker tooth set, which reduces harmonic vibration and improves cut quality across varying cross-sections. The cutting teeth are high speed steel M42-grade, bonded to a spring steel back for flex resistance and long service life. Licensed machinists, maintenance techs, and metal fabricators are the primary installers and users of this blade.

This blade is suited for production and job-shop cutting of a broad range of metals. The variable pitch and positive rake angle make it effective on alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, other non-ferrous metals, and titanium. It is a strong fit for shops cutting varied stock sizes or mixed material runs where a single blade needs to perform across multiple workpiece profiles. The QXP series designation indicates it is positioned for high-performance structural and solid-bar cutting duty.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with band saw tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lock out the saw before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Verify wheel guides, blade guides, and tension settings match the blade width and thickness before operation. Do not exceed the saw manufacturer's rated blade speed for the material being cut.
