Lenox 80191D2B72285 Bandsaw Blade 7.5 Ft 8-12 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 80191D2B72285 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for contour and straight cutting across a wide range of materials. It measures 7 feet 6 inches in length and 1/2 inch in width, with a 0.025-inch blade thickness and a variable pitch of 8 to 12 TPI. The cutting edge is milled and toothed, with a Vari-Raker tooth set that helps reduce vibration and blade chatter during cuts. The M42 high speed steel tooth tips are electron-beam welded to a spring steel back, making this blade a strong choice for shops and service technicians cutting ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as wood.

This blade is suited for portable and stationary bandsaw applications where variable pitch performance is needed. Its material compatibility spans alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, structural steel, aluminum, other non-ferrous metals, and wood, making it a versatile option for metal fabrication shops, HVAC contractors cutting metal framing, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians. The variable pitch design reduces harmonic vibration and helps extend blade life when switching between material types on the same job.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction: M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for durability and flex resistance
• Variable pitch of 8 to 12 TPI reduces vibration and improves chip clearance across material thicknesses
• Vari-Raker tooth set geometry supports smooth, accurate cuts on curved and straight profiles
• Contour cutting rated for use on alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood
• Kerf width of 0.043 inches for controlled material removal
• Welded blade design for consistent tension and tracking on bandsaw machines

Compatibility

Designed for bandsaw machines that accept a 7 foot 6 inch blade with a 1/2 inch width. Verify wheel diameter, blade guide clearance, and tension capacity on your specific machine before installation.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the bandsaw manufacturer's guidelines. Power down and lock out the machine before replacing the blade. Confirm blade tension, tracking alignment, and guide bearing clearance before resuming cuts. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling bandsaw blades, as the tooth edge is sharp along its full length.
