Lenox 72335CLB113430 Welded Bandsaw Blade 11 Ft 3 in

Product Description

The LENOX 72335CLB113430 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional fabrication and industrial environments. Measuring 11 feet 3 inches in length and 1 inch wide with a 0.035-inch thickness, this blade runs a variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch pattern that helps reduce vibration and harmonic resonance during cuts. The M42 high-speed steel tooth material delivers edge retention on hard and abrasive metals, while the spring steel back provides flex resistance under continuous load. Licensed metalworking professionals and bandsaw operators install this blade on horizontal and vertical band saws suited to its 11 feet 3 inch loop size.

This blade is designed for cutting a broad range of metals including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The Vari-Raker tooth set combined with the variable pitch tooth form makes it well suited for cutting solid stock, structural shapes, and bundled sections where chip load varies across the cut. It is a strong fit for production shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication operations that process mixed metal stock on a regular basis.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42 high-speed steel teeth for extended edge life on hard metals
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves cut finish on mixed cross-sections
• Vari-Raker tooth set promotes consistent chip evacuation and reduces blade loading
• Spring steel back resists fatigue cracking under repeated flex stress
• 0.0580-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Positive rake angle improves cutting aggression on structural and tool steels
• Pre-welded loop ships ready to install with no field joining required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit blade for horizontal and vertical band saws that accept an 11 feet 3 inch welded loop blade with a 1-inch width and 0.035-inch blade thickness.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation and tensioning should be performed by a qualified operator following the saw manufacturer guidelines and applicable machine-safety standards. Power down and lock out the saw completely before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Verify wheel guides, blade guides, and thrust bearings are properly adjusted to the new blade width before resuming cuts. Inspect blade tracking at low speed before loading the saw to full capacity.
