Lenox 79711CLB82705 Bi-metal Bandsaw Blade 10-14 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 79711CLB82705 is a bi-metal welded bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in industrial and trade environments. Measuring 8 feet 10.5 inches in length and 3/4 inch wide with a 0.035-inch back thickness, this blade features a variable 10 to 14 TPI pitch pattern that reduces vibration and harmonic noise during cuts. The tooth material is M42 high speed steel, known for its hot hardness and wear resistance, bonded to a spring steel back. The Vari-Raker tooth set and milled toothed edge deliver consistent chip clearance across a range of workpiece cross-sections. Bandsaw operators and maintenance machinists working in metal fabrication, structural, or mechanical trades will find this blade ready to install on compatible vertical or horizontal bandsaws.

This blade is suited 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 variable pitch construction makes it effective on varying wall thicknesses and irregular profiles, reducing the risk of tooth stripping on thin sections. It is not designed for contour cutting applications. Typical use cases include production cutting of bar stock, tubing, structural shapes, and plate in fabrication shops, machine shops, and maintenance facilities.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction: M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible spring steel back for durability and breakage resistance
• Variable 10 to 14 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves cut finish across varying material cross-sections
• Vari-Raker tooth set with milled toothed edge promotes consistent chip evacuation
• 0.058-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Compatible with a wide material range: alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals
• LENOX Classic series welded blade — pre-welded and ready to install without field joining

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit welded bandsaw blade for horizontal and vertical metal-cutting bandsaws accepting a 3/4-inch wide blade. Verify your saw's wheel diameter and blade length specification before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with the specific saw model. Always disconnect power and relieve blade tension before removing or installing a blade. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled or uncoiled blade. Confirm proper blade tracking, tension, and guide adjustment per the saw manufacturer's specifications before returning the machine to service.
