Lenox 72609CLB134065 Bi-metal Bandsaw Blade 4-6 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 72609CLB134065 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for professional metal-cutting applications. The blade measures 13 feet 4 inches in length and 1 inch in width, with a 0.035-inch blade thickness and a variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch pattern. The cutting teeth are M42 high speed steel, set in a Vari-Raker configuration on a spring steel back. This combination delivers aggressive stock removal on a broad range of metals while maintaining tooth durability under continuous production cutting. Fabricators, pipefitters, and maintenance machinists install this blade on vertical or horizontal bandsaws sized for a 13-foot 4-inch loop.

This blade is suited for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable pitch tooth form reduces harmonic vibration during the cut, which is especially useful when transitioning through varying cross-sections or interrupted cuts. It fits the LENOX Classic series and is appropriate for industrial and commercial shop environments where consistent, repeatable metal cutting is required across mixed material jobs.

Key Features

• M42 high speed steel teeth for extended blade life on hard and abrasive metals
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves surface finish
• Vari-Raker tooth set minimizes blade deflection and chip packing
• Spring steel back provides fatigue resistance over long blade life
• 0.058-inch kerf width balances cut efficiency with material loss
• Welded construction for continuous loop operation on standard bandsaw machines

Compatibility

Designed for bandsaws that accept a 13-foot 4-inch welded blade loop. Compatible material applications include alloy steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metal, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, and tool steel. Part of the LENOX Classic series.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician with the bandsaw fully powered down and locked out per LOTO procedures. Verify wheel spacing and blade guides are set for a 1-inch wide blade before tensioning. Inspect weld integrity before mounting. Follow the bandsaw manufacturer's tensioning specifications and blade-break-in procedure when cutting new blade teeth into service.
