Lenox 1792869 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4 to 6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1792869 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in fabrication and machine shop environments. The blade measures 148 inches long and 1 inch wide with a 0.035-inch thickness and a variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch pattern. The M42 high-speed steel tooth construction paired with a spring steel back provides durability under continuous cutting loads. A Vari-Raker tooth set and positive rake angle combine to improve chip evacuation and reduce heat buildup during cuts. The blade weighs 2.27 pounds and is supplied as a single welded loop ready to mount.

This blade is suited for horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines used in metal fabrication, maintenance shops, and industrial production environments. The variable pitch design reduces harmonic vibration, making it effective across a range of material thicknesses and cross-sections. Licensed machinists and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers. The LENOX Classic Pro series is positioned for production-volume cutting where blade life and cut quality are prioritized over cost-per-blade.

Key Features

• M42 high-speed steel teeth for extended blade life in tough materials
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves cut finish
• Vari-Raker tooth set promotes consistent chip clearance
• Spring steel back construction resists fatigue under continuous flex
• Positive rake angle improves cutting aggression on metal stock
• Welded loop construction — no field joining required before installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit blade for bandsaw machines accepting a 148-inch blade length with a 1-inch blade width. Suitable for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, structural steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with blade-tensioning procedures specific to the host machine. Power down and lock out the bandsaw before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Verify blade guides, wheel alignment, and tension settings per the machine manufacturer specifications before resuming cuts. Do not run the blade above the rated speed for the material being cut.
