Lenox 1792731 Welded Bandsaw Blade 5 to 8 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1792731 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in industrial and trade environments. The blade measures 12 feet 6 inches in length and 1 inch in width, with a 0.035-inch body thickness and a kerf width of 0.055 inches. The variable 5 to 8 TPI pitch pattern reduces harmonic vibration and improves chip evacuation during cuts. High-speed steel M42 teeth are electron-beam welded to a spring steel back, combining edge retention with fatigue resistance across extended use. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and metal fabrication shops will find this blade suited to precision metal cutting on horizontal and vertical bandsaw equipment.

This blade is designed for cutting a wide range of metals including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The Vari-Raker tooth set and positive rake angle allow efficient chip removal across varying cross-sections, making the blade well-suited for production cutting of bar stock, tubing, structural shapes, and solid rounds. It is part of the LENOX Classic Pro series and is intended for contour-free, straight-line cutting operations.

Key Features

• Variable 5 to 8 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves surface finish on metal cuts
• Vari-Raker tooth set with positive rake angle for efficient chip evacuation
• 0.055-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Compatible with a broad range of metals including stainless, alloy, tool, and bearing steels as well as aluminum and non-ferrous materials
• Welded blade construction for consistent tension and smooth tracking on bandsaw equipment

Compatibility

Designed for use on horizontal and vertical bandsaws that accept a 12 foot 6 inch blade length, 1 inch width, and 0.035-inch thickness. Verify your machine's blade specification before installation.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with bandsaw equipment. Power down and lock out the saw before removing or installing any blade. Set blade tension and tracking according to the saw manufacturer's specifications before running the machine. Inspect the blade weld and tooth condition before each use; do not operate a blade with visible cracks, missing teeth, or weld separation.
