Lenox 87455D2B144420 Welded Bandsaw Blade 14 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 87455D2B144420 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade built for demanding contour cutting across a wide range of materials. At 14 feet 6 inches in length and 0.5 inches wide, it fits standard vertical bandsaw machines used in metal fabrication, mechanical shops, and general-purpose cutting environments. The blade is constructed with an M42 high-speed steel tooth edge metallurgically bonded to a spring steel back, delivering toughness where it counts. At 14 teeth per inch with a straight tooth form and single-level set, it produces consistent, controlled cuts in both ferrous and non-ferrous stock. Blade thickness is 0.035 inches with a kerf width of 0.058 inches.

This blade is suited for shops and service facilities cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals, as well as wood. The constant pitch pattern and standard straight tooth rake make it a reliable all-around choice for production cutting or maintenance work where blade changes are infrequent and cut quality matters. It ships as a single welded loop, ready to mount without additional joining. Trade fabricators, pipefitters, and millwrights will find it appropriate for vertical bandsaw equipment in both shop and field-adjacent settings.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified technician with the machine fully de-energized and the blade tension released before removal or mounting. Blade guides and thrust bearings should be set to the manufacturer-specified clearance for the blade width after installation. Confirm blade tracking on the wheels before closing guards and resuming power. Always inspect the weld joint for cracks or fatigue before mounting a used blade.
