Lenox 1792821 Welded Bandsaw Blade 3-4 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1792821 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in fabrication shops and maintenance environments. It measures 10 feet 5 inches in length and 1 inch in width, with a blade thickness of 0.035 inches and a kerf width of 0.057 inches. The variable 3 to 4 TPI pitch and Vari-Raker tooth set reduce vibration and improve chip evacuation across a wide range of stock sizes and profiles. The M42 high-speed steel tooth tips deliver heat and wear resistance required when cutting hard or abrasive metals. This blade is part of the Classic Pro series and is installed by machinists, tool and die technicians, and metal fabricators on stationary bandsaw equipment.

This blade is suited for horizontal and vertical band saws used in metal cutting. The variable pitch design makes it effective across multiple material types including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, structural steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The positive rake angle supports aggressive, efficient cuts through solid bar stock, tubing, and structural sections. It is a practical choice for shops that cut a variety of material grades and cross-sections on a single machine without frequent blade changes.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42 high-speed steel teeth for extended blade life on hard metals
• Variable 3 to 4 TPI Vari-Raker tooth set reduces vibration and harmonics during cutting
• Positive rake angle promotes efficient chip removal and faster feed rates
• Spring steel back provides flexibility and fatigue resistance over continuous use
• 0.057-inch kerf width minimizes material loss on each cut
• Compatible with a broad range of materials including stainless steel, aluminum, and tool steel

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement welded bandsaw blade for stationary metal-cutting bandsaws requiring a 10-foot 5-inch blade length with a 1-inch width and 0.035-inch thickness.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by qualified personnel with the machine fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify wheel diameter, blade guides, and blade tension settings match the blade width and thickness before mounting. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled blades, as spring-back can cause injury. Allow the blade to run unloaded for a short break-in period before applying full feed pressure.
