Lenox 62823CLB113580 Bandsaw Blade 11ft 9in Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 62823CLB113580 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop and industrial environments. The blade measures 11 feet 9 inches in length and 1 inch in width with a 0.035-inch thickness. Tooth pitch runs variable at 6 to 10 TPI, allowing the blade to transition smoothly across varying cross-sections and wall thicknesses without chatter or stalling. The tooth tips are M42 high speed steel, a cobalt-bearing grade chosen for heat resistance and edge retention when cutting hard or abrasive metals. The spring steel back provides flexibility and fatigue resistance through continuous band operation.

This blade is suited for horizontal and vertical bandsaw use in maintenance, fabrication, and production cutting environments. The variable pitch and Vari-Raker tooth set make it particularly effective on structural shapes, solid bar stock, tubing, and bundled material. It handles a wide material range including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. Installation is performed by machinists, tool and die technicians, and fabrication professionals running industrial bandsaws with appropriate blade guides and tension systems.

Key Features

• M42 high speed steel tooth tips for superior heat and wear resistance on hard metals
• Variable 6 to 10 TPI pitch reduces vibration and extends blade life across mixed cross-sections
• Vari-Raker tooth set improves chip clearance and cutting efficiency
• Spring steel back increases fatigue resistance during continuous band operation
• Welded construction for consistent tension and reliable tracking on bandsaw wheels
• Broad material compatibility including stainless steel, alloy steel, tool steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or production-use bandsaw blade for industrial and professional bandsaws accepting a blade length of 11 feet 9 inches and a 1-inch blade width. Verify your saw's blade length specification and guide clearance before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with the specific saw model and its tensioning system. Power down and lock out the machine before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Set blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer's specifications before running the blade under load. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades to prevent injury from the tooth edge.
