Lenox 39417CLB154775 Bandsaw Blade 15ft 8in 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 39417CLB154775 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop environments. Measuring 15 feet 8 inches in length and 1-1/4 inches in width, this blade features a variable-pitch tooth form ranging from 4 to 6 TPI, which reduces harmonic vibration and extends blade life on interrupted or variable cross-section cuts. The M42 high speed steel tooth tips are bonded to a spring steel back, combining edge hardness with backing flexibility. Kerf width is 0.068 inches. The Classic series designation reflects a production-grade specification suited for production band saw use across a wide range of metals.

This blade is designed for use on horizontal and vertical band saws in metalworking, fabrication, and maintenance-repair-overhaul (MRO) shops. The variable-pitch, Vari-Raker tooth set performs across a broad material range including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The 4 to 6 TPI range makes it well-suited for cutting solid bar stock, structural sections, and profiles where a single fixed pitch would otherwise chatter or load unevenly. Contour cutting is not a rated application for this blade geometry.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction: M42 high speed steel teeth on a spring steel back for durability and flexibility
• Variable pitch 4 to 6 TPI with Vari-Raker tooth set reduces vibration and chatter on structural cuts
• 0.068-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Positive tooth rake angle improves chip clearance and cut rate on metal stock
• Rated for alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals
• Welded construction provides a continuous loop ready for direct installation on compatible band saws

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or production-grade bandsaw blade for metal-cutting band saws accepting a 1-1/4-inch-wide blade in a 15-foot 8-inch loop length. Verify your machine's blade length specification and guide geometry before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or shop technician familiar with band saw blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the saw before removing the existing blade or installing a new one. Set blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer's specifications before making test cuts; do not operate an improperly tensioned blade. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling uncoiled or loose bandsaw blades.
