Lenox 1793085 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1793085 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in fabrication shops, machine shops, and industrial maintenance environments. Measuring 150 inches long and 1-1/4 inches wide at 0.042 inches thick, this blade features a variable-pitch tooth pattern at 4 to 6 TPI with a Vari-Raker tooth set and positive rake angle. The cutting teeth are M42 high speed steel, a cobalt-enhanced grade known for heat resistance and edge retention when cutting hard or abrasive materials. The spring steel back provides fatigue resistance during continuous-cycle operation. This blade ships as a single welded unit ready for installation.

This blade is suited for production or job-shop bandsaws cutting a wide range of metals including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable pitch and Vari-Raker tooth geometry reduce vibration and chatter on interrupted cuts, solid bar, and structural profiles. It is part of the LENOX Classic Pro series, which targets professional metalworking operations where blade life and cut quality are critical. Licensed machinists, fabricators, and industrial maintenance mechanics are the typical end users.

Key Features

• M42 high speed steel teeth with cobalt content for extended life on hard metals
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch reduces vibration and noise on solid and structural stock
• Vari-Raker tooth set improves chip evacuation and cut surface finish
• Positive rake angle increases cutting aggression and feed rate capacity
• Spring steel back resists fatigue cracking during high-cycle use
• Welded blade arrives ready to mount — no field welding required

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or spare blade for metalcutting bandsaws accepting a 150-inch loop, 1-1/4-inch-wide blade. Verify your saw's wheel diameter, blade width capacity, and blade length specification before ordering.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with bandsaw setup procedures. Disconnect and lock out power to the saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Confirm proper blade tension and blade tracking per the saw manufacturer's service manual before resuming cuts. Do not exceed the saw's rated blade width or speed range for the material being cut.
