Lenox 1792887 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1792887 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in production and fabrication environments. The blade measures 15 feet 6 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.035 inches thick, with a variable 4 to 6 TPI tooth pitch that balances aggressive material removal with controlled finish quality. The M42 high speed steel tooth material delivers hardness and heat resistance needed when cutting tough ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and fabrication shops running horizontal or vertical band saws will find this blade suited for continuous-duty cutting cycles where blade longevity matters.

This blade is designed for metal cutting across a broad range of materials including 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 shops and service professionals who need a reliable general-purpose blade that transitions between material types without a blade change for every job. It is not intended for contour or radius cutting and performs best in straight-line applications on horizontal or vertical band saw machines sized for a 1-inch blade.

Key Features

• M42 high speed steel teeth for extended cutting life on hard and abrasive metals
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch reduces vibration and harmonic chatter during cutting
• Vari-Raker tooth set improves chip clearance and reduces blade binding
• Spring steel back provides flexibility and fatigue resistance through continuous band saw cycles
• Positive rake angle promotes faster, more aggressive cutting action on structural and alloy steels
• Welded construction eliminates mechanical joints that can cause vibration or premature fatigue failure

Compatibility

Designed for horizontal and vertical band saw machines that accept a 1-inch wide welded bandsaw blade. Suitable for cutting alloy steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metal, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, mold steel, and bearing steel.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the band saw manufacturer's safety procedures. Always power down and lock out the machine before opening blade guards or handling the blade. Verify blade tension, wheel alignment, and guide clearances match the blade width and thickness specifications before resuming operation. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades.
