Lenox 80307D2B72285 Welded Bandsaw Blade 10 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 80307D2B72285 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade built for continuous contour cutting in demanding shop and trade environments. The blade measures 90 inches (7 feet 6 inches) long by 1/2 inch wide and 0.035 inches thick, with a 10 teeth-per-inch (TPI) constant pitch and a kerf width of 0.058 inches. The tooth material is M42-grade high speed steel, bonded to a spring steel back — the defining characteristic of bi-metal construction that delivers edge durability well beyond standard carbon blades. Straight tooth form and single level set deliver consistent, predictable cuts with minimal drift. This blade is designed for machinists, fabricators, and tool room technicians running vertical or horizontal band saws in production or maintenance settings.

This blade is suited for contour and straight-feed cutting across a wide range of materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood. The 10 TPI pitch is well matched to medium-thickness stock where chip load and cut speed need to be balanced. It is a practical all-around blade for shops that process mixed material types without changing blades for every job. The welded construction provides a seamless joint for smooth tracking and consistent blade tension on standard bandsaw wheel configurations.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction: M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for extended blade life
• 10 TPI constant pitch optimized for medium-thickness mixed-material cutting
• Straight tooth form with single level set for consistent kerf and reduced blade deflection
• 0.058 inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Contour cutting capable for curved or radius work
• LENOX Classic series — designed as a general-purpose production blade across multiple material grades

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style welded replacement blade for bandsaw machines accepting a 90 inch (7 feet 6 inch) blade length with 1/2 inch width and 0.035 inch thickness. Verify wheel diameter, blade guide clearance, and tension range on the target machine before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician with the machine fully de-energized and locked out per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled blades — edges are sharp before and after use. Confirm blade tracking, tension, and guide bearing alignment before returning the machine to service. Do not force a blade onto wheels that fall outside the manufacturer-specified wheel diameter range for this blade length and width.
