Measuring 16 feet 2 inches long and 1-1\/4 inches wide with a 0.042-inch blade thickness, it runs on horizontal and vertical band saws used by metal fabricators, pipefitters, and maintenance machinists. The variable-pitch tooth form at 3 to 4 TPI reduces vibration and harmonic noise during cuts, improving both cut quality and blade life. The M42 high speed steel tooth material handles tough alloys and stainless steel where standard carbon-tooth blades wear prematurely. Spring steel backing provides fatigue resistance through continuous cutting cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for production and job-site band saws cutting a broad range of metal stock. Typical applications include structural steel sections, alloy steel bar, carbon steel tubing, stainless steel plate, aluminum extrusions, and non-ferrous metal profiles. The vari-raker tooth set combined with positive rake angle promotes aggressive chip clearance and consistent feed rates across varied cross-sections. It is not configured for contour cutting and is intended for straight cutting operations on production-grade band saw equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with M42 high speed steel teeth for extended blade life on tough metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch at 3 to 4 TPI reduces vibration and harmonic chatter during cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVari-raker tooth set improves chip clearance and maintains consistent feed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle promotes aggressive, efficient material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring steel back resists fatigue through high-cycle continuous cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible material applications include alloy steel, stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and structural steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a welded replacement blade for band saws accepting a 1-1\/4-inch-wide blade with a 16-foot-2-inch loop length.

Verify wheel diameter, blade tracking guides, and blade tension specification on the saw before mounting. Blade tension and guide bearing adjustment should follow the saw manufacturer's published settings for 1-1\/4-inch blade width. Inspect blade welds and tooth condition before first use and do not operate with a cracked or kinked blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 feet 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.042 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 to 4\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\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring Steel\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\u003eKerf Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0700 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Toothed, Milled, Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.218 pounds\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: 1897665\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LENOX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540453163314,"sku":"1897665","price":152.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ce629547f6ec4076b07b9e32446ef713_274726f2-48cf-4a56-998a-35cac753df76.jpg?v=1785855646","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lenox-1897665-welded-bandsaw-blade-3-to-4-tpi-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
