Lenox 1793103 Welded Bandsaw Blade 16 Ft 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 1793103 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding cutting applications across a wide range of metals. Measuring 16 feet in length and 1-1/4 inches wide with a 0.042-inch blade thickness, it delivers consistent performance in industrial and shop environments. The variable pitch tooth form at 4 to 6 TPI reduces harmonic vibration during cuts, extending blade life and improving surface finish on the workpiece. The M42 high speed steel tooth material provides heat and wear resistance in tough materials. This blade is part of the LENOX Classic Pro series and is installed by machinists, fabricators, and metalworking professionals.

This blade is suited for straight and contour-adjacent cutting on horizontal and vertical band saws used in metalworking shops and fabrication facilities. It handles 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 Vari-Raker tooth set pattern distributes cutting load evenly, making it a reliable choice for production cutting on varied stock profiles and cross-sections.

Key Features

• Variable pitch 4 to 6 TPI tooth form reduces vibration and minimizes blade noise during cuts
• Vari-Raker tooth set distributes cutting forces evenly across the kerf
• Bi-metal construction pairs a spring steel back with hardened tooth tips for flexibility and durability
• 0.0670-inch kerf width provides clean, efficient material removal
• Compatible with a wide range of workpiece materials including stainless steel, aluminum, and tool steel

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or aftermarket bandsaw blade for 16-foot band saw machines commonly found in metalworking and fabrication environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with band saw blade changes. Power down and de-energize the saw completely before removing the existing blade or threading the new one through the guides. Verify blade tension, tracking, and guide alignment per the saw manufacturer specifications before resuming operation. Proper blade tension is critical to blade life and cut accuracy — do not overtension.
