Measuring 12 feet 4 inches in length and 1 inch wide with a 0.035-inch thickness, it features a variable-pitch tooth form at 2 to 3 TPI with a Vari-Raker tooth set. The M42 high-speed steel tooth material paired with a spring steel back provides durability under high heat and interrupted cuts. A positive rake angle improves feed rate and chip evacuation on demanding materials. This blade is sized and configured for production shops, fabrication facilities, and maintenance departments handling structural and specialty metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 1812579 is suited for cutting a broad range of metals in both production and job-shop environments. Applicable materials include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, structural steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable pitch and Vari-Raker tooth set reduce vibration and noise during cuts, making it a practical choice for interrupted cuts and varying cross-sections. It is installed by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians operating metal-cutting band saws requiring a 12-foot 4-inch blade loop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with M42 high-speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for extended blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch tooth form at 2 to 3 TPI reduces vibration and improves cut quality on variable cross-sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVari-Raker tooth set promotes efficient chip clearance and consistent kerf geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle increases cutting aggressiveness and reduces feed force on hard metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.060-inch kerf width provides predictable material loss for layout and cut planning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded loop construction for direct installation on band saw machines without field joining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit welded bandsaw blade for metal-cutting band saws requiring a 12-foot 4-inch blade loop with a 1-inch blade width.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or technician familiar with band saw blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lock out the band saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Follow the machine manufacturer's tension specifications for 1-inch-wide bi-metal blades, and confirm blade tracking and guide alignment before resuming operation. Blade handling requires cut-resistant gloves due to exposed tooth edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 feet 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 to 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vari-Raker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKerf Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.060 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Non-Ferrous Metal, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Structural Steel, Tool Steel, Mold Steel, Bearing Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Classic Pro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.198 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.13 inches L x 17 inches W x 2.63 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LENOX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1812579\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LENOX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544081858866,"sku":"1812579","price":107.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ce629547f6ec4076b07b9e32446ef713_d1ca307b-6bde-4f88-ba51-941f11e311b1.jpg?v=1785923808","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lenox-1812579-welded-bandsaw-blade-2-to-3-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
