Lenox 53344D2B144395 Bandsaw Blade 14ft 5in 10-14 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 53344D2B144395 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for continuous contour and straight cutting across a wide range of materials. It runs 14 feet 5 inches in length and 0.5 inches wide, with a 0.025-inch blade thickness and a 0.043-inch kerf width. The variable-pitch tooth form spans 10 to 14 TPI, reducing harmonic vibration and improving cut quality in both thin and thick stock. High-speed steel M42 teeth are electron-beam welded to a spring steel back, giving the blade flexibility to resist fatigue through repeated flex cycles. This blade is installed by machinists, fabricators, and metal cutting professionals using horizontal or vertical bandsaw equipment.

This blade suits production and job-shop environments where a single blade must handle multiple material types without a changeover. Its variable pitch and Vari-Raker tooth set make it effective on alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood. The contour-cutting capability allows it to follow curved cuts on vertical bandsaws as well as straight cuts on horizontal machines. It is a solid choice for shops running a mix of material specifications on the same machine throughout the day.

Key Features

• Variable-pitch tooth form (10-14 TPI) reduces vibration and improves surface finish across variable stock thicknesses
• M42 high-speed steel teeth deliver extended edge life on hard and abrasive materials including stainless and tool steel
• Spring steel back provides flexibility and fatigue resistance through continuous flex cycles
• Vari-Raker tooth set promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces blade loading
• Contour cutting capable for use on vertical bandsaw configurations
• Welded construction for consistent blade tension and smooth tracking on the saw wheel

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement welded bandsaw blade for horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines accepting a 14-foot 5-inch blade length with a 0.5-inch width.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or equipment technician. Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Set blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer specifications before test-running without stock. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade, and inspect the blade welds and tooth set before each use.
