Lenox 82161D2B72335 Welded Bandsaw Blade 14 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 82161D2B72335 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for continuous contour cutting on powered band saws. It measures 92 inches in length and 0.5 inches in width, with a blade thickness of 0.035 inches and a kerf width of 0.058 inches. The tooth body is ground from M42 high speed steel and set to a single-level configuration at 14 teeth per inch with a straight tooth form and no rake angle. The spring steel back provides consistent tension and resistance to fatigue during extended cutting runs. HVAC fabricators, plumbers, and metalworking tradespeople rely on blades in this class for precise, repeatable cuts across a broad range of materials.

This blade is suited for contour cutting in both shop and field environments where a portable or benchtop band saw is used. The M42 bi-metal construction handles interrupted cuts and variable-density stock without premature tooth dulling. Compatible material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, other non-ferrous metals, and wood. At 14 TPI with a standard pitch pattern, it produces clean, controlled cuts in light to medium stock thicknesses common in mechanical and fabrication trades.

Key Features

• M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for durability and flex resistance
• 14 TPI constant pitch with straight tooth form for smooth, consistent cuts
• Single-level set teeth deliver a 0.058-inch kerf with minimal material waste
• Rated for contour cutting across alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and wood
• Welded construction eliminates mechanical joints that can cause vibration or blade walk
• Classic series standard pitch pattern suits a wide range of stock thicknesses

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or spare welded bandsaw blade for band saws accepting a 92-inch blade length and 0.5-inch blade width. Verify your saw's wheel diameter and blade guide clearance before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with band saw blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Disconnect and lock out power to the saw before opening the blade guards or handling the blade. Wear cut-resistant gloves when uncoiling or mounting the blade, as tooth edges are sharp. Confirm proper blade tension and tracking alignment before resuming operation, per the saw manufacturer's service manual.
