Measuring 12 feet in length and 1-1\/4 inches wide with a 0.042-inch blade thickness, it runs on horizontal and vertical bandsaws found in fabrication shops, machine shops, and production facilities. The blade features a variable-pitch tooth pattern spanning 5 to 8 TPI, which reduces vibration and noise while improving cut quality across a range of material thicknesses. The M42+ high speed steel tooth material delivers extended tooth life when cutting hard and abrasive metals. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical contractors as well as fabricators and machinists are the primary installers of this blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for cutting a broad range of metals, including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, titanium, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable Vari-Raker tooth set and positive rake angle make it particularly effective on structural sections, solid bar stock, and tubing where consistent chip clearance matters. It is not designed for contour cutting and performs best in straight-line production cuts. The QXP series designation indicates it is built for production-level cutting duty cycles rather than light intermittent use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable-pitch 5 to 8 TPI pattern reduces vibration and improves cut finish across varying material thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM42+ high speed steel teeth provide extended tool life on hard and abrasive metals including stainless steel and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVari-Raker tooth set with positive rake angle promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring steel back type adds fatigue resistance during continuous cutting cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.0680-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded construction for reliable blade-to-blade consistency straight out of the package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for bandsaws accepting a 12-foot blade length with a 1-1\/4-inch blade width.

Disconnect and lock out the machine from its power source before removing the existing blade or threading the new blade through the guides. Verify blade tension and tracking per the machine manufacturer specifications before initiating a cut. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling bandsaw blades, as the toothed edge presents a laceration hazard during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKerf Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0680 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 to 8 (variable pitch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (M42+)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vari-Raker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: QXP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Non-Ferrous Metal, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Tool Steel, Mold Steel, Bearing Steel, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LENOX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1788740\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LENOX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51538741166386,"sku":"1788740","price":132.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f491b787c2be91677b0eb46cf7b61a06_2828b42b-cdb3-4078-a678-63b7afd7ea47.jpg?v=1785825931","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lenox-1788740-welded-bandsaw-blade-12-ft-1-1-4-in-5-8-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
