Lenox 87883CLB103050 Bandsaw Blade 10 Ft 6-10 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 87883CLB103050 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for cutting metal and structural materials in professional shop and fabrication environments. It measures 10 feet in length and 3/4 inch wide with a 0.035-inch blade thickness and a variable-pitch tooth configuration spanning 6 to 10 TPI. The tooth geometry uses a Vari-Raker set pattern, which distributes cutting forces across the blade and reduces vibration during cuts. The cutting teeth are manufactured from M42 grade high speed steel, offering high heat resistance and extended edge life when cutting hard or abrasive materials. This blade is part of the LENOX Classic series and is sold as a single welded loop ready for immediate installation.

This blade is suited for metal-cutting bandsaw applications in machine shops, fabrication facilities, maintenance shops, and industrial service environments. Its material compatibility includes alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The variable pitch tooth form helps manage chip load variation when cutting irregular cross-sections or bundles. It is not intended for contour cutting applications. Licensed millwrights, machinists, and metal fabricators are the typical end users for this blade type.

Key Features

• M42 high speed steel teeth for extended performance on hard metals including stainless and tool steel
• Variable pitch 6 to 10 TPI reduces vibration and harmonic chatter during metal cutting
• Vari-Raker tooth set pattern distributes cutting load for smooth, consistent kerf
• Bi-metal construction pairs a spring steel back with hardened tooth material for durability and flexibility
• 0.058-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Welded loop construction — no field joining required, fits directly onto compatible bandsaw machines

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or consumable bandsaw blade for horizontal and vertical metal-cutting bandsaws accepting a 10-foot blade loop in 3/4-inch width. Verify your machine's blade length, width, and thickness specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or millwright with the machine fully powered off and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout requirements. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling uncoiled or unlooped bandsaw blades. Verify blade tension and tracking alignment before resuming cuts. Do not exceed the blade speed ratings specified by the bandsaw manufacturer for the material being cut.
