It measures 198 inches (16 feet 6 inches) long and 1-1\/2 inches wide, with a blade thickness of 0.05 inches. The tooth geometry features a variable pitch pattern at 2 to 3 TPI with a positive rake angle and single level set, delivering efficient chip evacuation and reduced vibration across a wide range of stock sizes. The cutting edge is ground for precision, and the M42+ high speed steel tooth material provides heat and wear resistance in heavy-cycle cutting environments. This blade is intended for installation on industrial and professional-grade vertical or horizontal band saws by machinists, fabricators, and metal trades professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for production and job-shop cutting of a broad range of metals. The variable pitch and positive rake angle make it effective on solid bar, structural shapes, tubing, and bundled stock. Its material application range covers alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, other non-ferrous metals, and titanium. The QXP series construction is designed for use on band saws that accept 1-1\/2 inch wide blades in the 198-inch loop length. No contour cutting applications are specified for this blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction with M42+ high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for flexibility and tooth durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch at 2 to 3 TPI reduces harmonic vibration and improves cut quality on varying cross-sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositive rake angle and ground tooth form promote aggressive, efficient cutting with consistent surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle level tooth set controls kerf width to 0.082 inches for predictable material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded blade loop eliminates the need for field joining and ensures consistent tension across the full length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for a wide material application range including stainless steel, titanium, tool steel, and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on band saws that accept a 1-1\/2 inch wide blade in a 198-inch (16 feet 6 inches) welded loop length.

Disconnect and lock out all power to the saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Follow the saw manufacturer's tension and tracking specifications for 1-1\/2 inch wide blades — do not over-tension, as this reduces blade fatigue life. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled or looped blade, and ensure blade guides and thrust bearings are properly adjusted before returning the machine to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 inches (16 feet 6 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 to 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Form\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Rake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single Level Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ground, Toothed, Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKerf Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.082 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: M42+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: QXP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Non-Ferrous Metal, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Tool Steel, Mold Steel, Bearing Steel, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242112\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LENOX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 65969QPB165030\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LENOX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542485270834,"sku":"65969QPB165030","price":209.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f491b787c2be91677b0eb46cf7b61a06_309db3d2-d264-417d-86ff-d2a1c1620481.jpg?v=1785901607","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lenox-65969qpb165030-welded-bandsaw-blade-2-3-tpi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
