Lenox 1793084 Welded Bandsaw Blade 12 Ft 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1793084 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop and industrial environments. The blade runs 12 feet long and 1-1/4 inches wide with a 0.042-inch thickness and a variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch pattern. The cutting edge uses a Vari-Raker tooth set with a positive rake angle, which promotes aggressive chip clearance and reduces heat buildup during extended cuts. The M42 high-speed steel tooth material delivers hardness and wear resistance well above standard carbon-tooth blades. This blade is part of the LENOX Classic Pro series and is intended for installation by experienced metalworkers and machine operators on horizontal or vertical bandsaw equipment.

This blade is suited for production metal-cutting where a range of material types and section sizes are encountered in a single workflow. Approved material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable pitch design reduces harmonic vibration, making it effective across varying cross-sections and wall thicknesses. It is not rated for contour cutting and should be reserved for straight-line stock removal.

Key Features

• M42 high-speed steel teeth for extended wear life in hard and abrasive metals
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI Vari-Raker tooth set minimizes vibration and noise across varying stock sizes
• Positive rake angle promotes aggressive feed rates and clean chip evacuation
• Spring steel back provides fatigue resistance over long blade run times
• Welded construction delivers a consistent, balanced loop with no mechanical joint
• 0.0670-inch kerf width delivers efficient material removal with minimal waste

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit welded bandsaw blade for horizontal and vertical metal-cutting bandsaws requiring a 12-foot loop, 1-1/4-inch wide blade.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machine operator or metalworking technician familiar with bandsaw blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lock out the bandsaw before removing the old blade or installing a new one, following OSHA lockout/tagout requirements. Verify that blade guides, wheel brushes, and blade wipers are clean and properly set before tensioning the new blade. Do not exceed the bandsaw manufacturer's recommended blade speed for the material being cut.
