Lenox 87936CLB144470 Bandsaw Blade 14ft 8in 6-10 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 87936CLB144470 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop environments. Measuring 14 feet 8 inches in length and 0.035 inches thick, it features a variable 6 to 10 TPI tooth pattern that helps reduce blade harmonics and extend cutting life across a range of material thicknesses. The cutting edge combines High Speed Steel M42 teeth with a spring steel back, producing a blade that resists tooth strippage under load. Licensed trades, tool-and-die shops, and fabrication crews rely on this style of blade for consistent, accurate cuts on structural and specialty metals.

This blade is suited for horizontal and vertical bandsaw machines used in metal fabrication, maintenance shops, and production environments. The variable pitch and Vari-Raker tooth set make it effective when cutting a mix of material cross-sections in a single session. Compatible material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals, making it a versatile single-blade option for shops that handle diverse stock.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42 High Speed Steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for durability and flex resistance
• Variable 6 to 10 TPI Vari-Raker tooth set reduces vibration and improves chip clearance across varying stock thicknesses
• 0.035-inch blade thickness with a 0.058-inch kerf width for controlled material removal
• 3/4-inch blade width provides lateral stability during contour-adjacent straight cuts
• Rated for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals
• Classic series design with welded construction for consistent loop integrity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or aftermarket bandsaw blade for metal-cutting bandsaws that accept a 14-foot 8-inch blade loop with a 3/4-inch width and 0.035-inch thickness. Verify your saw manufacturer's blade length, width, and thickness specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade replacement should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with the saw manufacturer's tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and lock out the bandsaw at the main disconnect before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade, as edges are sharp throughout the full loop length. Follow the saw manufacturer's specified blade tension range for the given blade width — do not rely on generic tension figures not published for your specific machine.
