The blade measures 8 feet in length and 1\/2 inch wide, with a thickness of 0.025 inches and a variable pitch of 8 to 12 TPI. The bi-metal construction pairs a spring steel back with M42 high speed steel teeth, delivering durability under high-cycle use. The Vari-Raker tooth set and variable tooth form reduce vibration and improve chip clearance, making it a practical choice for shops cutting a range of materials in a single setup. Licensed machinists and fabricators are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis blade is suited for contour cutting on vertical or horizontal band saws in light industrial and production shop environments. The variable pitch and M42 tooth grade allow it to transition between thinner and thicker workpieces without blade changes. Compatible materials include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metal, and wood. It fits applications where a single blade must handle mixed material runs or varying cross-sections on the same machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBi-metal construction: M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for extended blade life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch of 8 to 12 TPI reduces harmonic vibration and improves cut quality on varying material thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVari-Raker tooth set promotes efficient chip evacuation and consistent tooth engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContour cutting capable for curved and irregular profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.043 inch kerf width minimizes material waste during cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelded construction provides a continuous loop ready to install\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement or stock blade for band saws accepting an 8-foot loop, 1\/2 inch wide, 0.025 inch thick blade.

Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the saw before removing or installing any blade. Follow the saw manufacturer's tensioning specifications for 1\/2 inch wide blades. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the blade loop, as the teeth are sharp along the full length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 to 12 variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bi-Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel (M42)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTooth Set\u003c\/strong\u003e: Vari-Raker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch Pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKerf Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.043 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContour Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LENOX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80218D2B82440\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LENOX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540655505714,"sku":"80218D2B82440","price":79.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f4febaf92672ccc9f642d235c987020e_afb73354-c7d6-4594-b531-b051506488a8.jpg?v=1785861023","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lenox-80218d2b82440-bandsaw-blade-8-ft-bi-metal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
