Lenox 1792722 Welded Bandsaw Blade 5 to 8 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1792722 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade designed for continuous cutting of a wide range of metals in industrial and shop environments. Measuring 11 feet 1 inch in length and 1 inch in width with a 0.035-inch blade thickness, this blade is built for horizontal and vertical band saws used in production cutting. The variable-pitch tooth form at 5 to 8 TPI reduces vibration and harmonics during the cut, extending blade life and improving surface finish. The M42 high-speed steel tooth material handles tough alloys and abrasive materials that wear out standard carbon blades. This blade is installed by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians running metal-cutting band saws.

This blade is suited for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, structural steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The Classic Pro series targets production environments where cut quality and blade longevity are priorities. The vari-raker tooth set and positive rake angle improve chip clearance and reduce heat buildup, making this blade effective for both solid bar stock and structural profiles. It is not intended for contour or radius cutting applications.

Key Features

• M42 high-speed steel teeth for extended cutting life in hard and abrasive metals
• Variable 5 to 8 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves cut finish
• Vari-raker tooth set promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Positive rake angle increases cutting aggression on dense alloys
• Spring steel back provides flex resistance and fatigue life in continuous operation
• Welded construction delivers consistent blade tension and tracking on the saw

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit blade for metal-cutting band saws accepting a 1-inch-wide blade at 11 feet 1 inch in length. Confirm your saw's blade length specification before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with band saw blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Disconnect power to the saw before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Set blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer's specifications before resuming operation. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade, as edges remain sharp during and after installation.
