Lenox 48429CLB103275 Bandsaw Blade 6-10 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 48429CLB103275 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade built for demanding metal-cutting applications in production and maintenance environments. Measuring 10 feet 9 inches in length and 3/4 inch wide with a 0.035-inch thickness, this blade features a variable 6 to 10 TPI pitch pattern designed to reduce vibration and improve cut quality across a range of material thicknesses. The M42 high-speed steel tooth tips are bonded to a spring steel back, giving the blade both edge retention and fatigue resistance. Licensed HVAC and mechanical contractors, pipefitters, and metal fabricators are the primary installers and users of this blade.

This blade is suited for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals on horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines. The variable pitch tooth form with a Vari-Raker tooth set reduces harmonics during cuts, making it a practical choice for both solid bar stock and structural profiles. The Classic series designation indicates a general-purpose production-grade application where consistent, repeatable cuts are required.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42 high-speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for extended blade life
• Variable 6 to 10 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves surface finish on varied cross-sections
• Vari-Raker tooth set promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces tooth loading
• 0.058-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• No-angle tooth rake for controlled, stable cutting in dense ferrous materials
• Welded construction provides a continuous loop ready to install without field joining

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit blade for horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines accepting a 10 foot 9 inch loop in 3/4 inch width.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician following the saw manufacturer's tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lock out the bandsaw before removing the guard or handling the blade. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades. Verify wheel diameter and blade guide spacing are compatible with 3/4 inch blade width before installation.
