Lenox 88463D2B72335 Welded Bandsaw Blade 6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 88463D2B72335 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade built for continuous contour cutting across a wide range of metals and materials. Measuring 92 inches in length and 0.5 inches in width with a 0.025-inch blade thickness, it runs a 6 TPI constant pitch hook tooth pattern. The tooth edge is milled and set to a single-level configuration with a positive rake angle, producing controlled, aggressive cuts. The blade body is spring steel backed, while the teeth are M42 high speed steel, the combination that defines the Classic series bi-metal construction. Kerf width is 0.0430 inches. This blade is sized and pre-welded, ready to mount without additional preparation.

This blade is suited for metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and trade environments where a horizontal or vertical bandsaw handles mixed-material cutting. Rated material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, structural steel, tool steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metal, and wood. The 6 TPI pitch and hook tooth form make it a practical choice for cutting solid bar stock, structural sections, and tubing where a moderate feed rate and clean kerf are required. It ships as a single pre-welded loop requiring no field welding.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction: M42 high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for durability and flex resistance
• 6 TPI constant pitch hook tooth form with positive rake angle for aggressive, controlled cutting
• Single-level tooth set with milled edge for consistent kerf width of 0.0430 inches
• Pre-welded loop at 92 inches eliminates field welding and reduces setup time
• Contour cutting capable across metals including stainless steel, tool steel, aluminum, and structural steel
• Classic series standard pitch pattern suited for general-purpose bandsaw applications

Compatibility

Designed as a pre-welded replacement bandsaw blade for horizontal and vertical bandsaws accepting a 92-inch blade loop with a 0.5-inch width and 0.025-inch thickness.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade replacement is typically performed by a machinist or qualified maintenance technician. Power down and lock out the bandsaw before removing the old blade or installing a new one, following LOTO procedures per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147. Verify blade tension, guide bearing clearance, and wheel tracking before resuming cuts. Do not exceed the blade speed rating of the saw or operate with damaged guides, as blade deflection or breakage can result.
