Lenox 1792871 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1792871 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for continuous cutting of metals in industrial and commercial shop environments. It measures 154 inches in length and 1 inch in width, with a blade thickness of 0.035 inches and a variable pitch of 4 to 6 TPI. The cutting teeth are high speed steel M42 grade, set in a Vari-Raker pattern for reduced vibration and smooth chip evacuation. The spring steel back provides flex resistance during contour and straight cuts. At 2.33 pounds, this blade is sized for floor-standing vertical bandsaws common in fabrication and maintenance shops.

This blade is suited for cutting a wide range of metals including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, structural steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable pitch tooth form reduces harmonic vibration during cuts through irregular cross-sections such as tubing, angle iron, and solid bar stock. It is a practical choice for job shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication operations that regularly process mixed metal materials.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with machine guarding requirements. Power down and lock out the saw at the disconnect before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades. Verify blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer specifications before resuming operation.
