Lenox 39544CLB113355 Welded Bandsaw Blade 11 Ft

Product Description

The LENOX 39544CLB113355 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop and fabrication environments. Measuring 11 feet in length and 1 inch wide with a 0.035-inch blade thickness, it runs on horizontal and vertical band saws used by metalworkers, pipefitters, and maintenance machinists. The blade features a variable pitch tooth form at 4 to 6 TPI, which reduces harmonic vibration and improves cut quality across a range of material thicknesses. High speed steel M42 teeth are electron-beam welded to a spring steel back, producing consistent tooth hardness and back flexibility across the full blade length.

This blade is suited for production and job-site cutting of alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable pitch Vari-Raker tooth set minimizes chatter on thin-wall sections and interruptions, making it a practical choice for structural shapes, tubing, and solid bar stock. It fits band saws with a matching 11-foot wheel circumference and is sold as a single pre-welded loop ready to install.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction: M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible spring steel back
• Variable pitch 4 to 6 TPI reduces vibration and extends blade life on varied cross-sections
• Vari-Raker tooth set improves chip evacuation and surface finish
• Positive rake angle promotes aggressive, efficient cutting on metals
• Pre-welded loop at 11 feet for direct drop-in installation
• 0.058-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement welded bandsaw blade for band saws requiring an 11-foot blade loop, 1 inch wide, with a 0.035-inch gauge. Suitable for cutting alloy steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metal, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, and tool steel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician with the band saw powered down and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify wheel diameter and blade guide spacing match the 11-foot loop length and 1-inch blade width before mounting. Use appropriate blade tension per the saw manufacturer's specifications, and confirm blade tracking before resuming operation. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling an uncoiled bandsaw blade.
