Lenox 80196D2B72360 Welded Bandsaw Blade 6-10 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 80196D2B72360 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for contour cutting across a wide range of materials in demanding shop and field environments. The blade measures 93 inches in length and 0.5 inches wide, with a 0.025-inch thickness and a 0.043-inch kerf width. It runs a variable 6 to 10 TPI pitch in a Vari-Raker tooth set pattern, which reduces vibration and harmonic chatter during cuts. The M42 high speed steel tooth material provides heat and wear resistance on harder workpieces. Licensed tradespeople and skilled shop technicians are the primary installers and operators.

This blade is suited for applications involving alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood. The variable pitch tooth form handles both straight stock and contour cuts, making it a practical choice for metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments where material types change frequently. The Classic series designation places it in a proven blade family intended for general-purpose bandsaw use at a professional level.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Disconnect and lock out all power to the saw before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Verify that blade guides, thrust bearings, and wheel guards are properly adjusted and secured before resuming operation. Follow the saw manufacturer's recommended tension settings for the blade width and material being cut.
