Lenox 89972QPB123810 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4 to 6 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 89972QPB123810 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in industrial and trade environments. Measuring 12 feet 6 inches in length, 1 inch wide, and 0.035 inches thick, this blade features a variable pitch tooth pattern at 4 to 6 TPI, allowing it to handle a wide range of material thicknesses without changing blades. The tooth material is M42 grade high speed steel bonded to a spring steel back, delivering edge retention under high heat and feed pressure. Metalworkers, fabricators, and maintenance technicians install this blade on vertical or horizontal band saws for straight and contour metal-cutting tasks.

This blade is suited for professional metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments where a single blade must cut multiple material types efficiently. The variable pitch and vari-raker tooth set reduce vibration and noise during cutting, which extends blade life and improves cut quality across a broad range of workpiece cross-sections. It is not intended for contour cutting applications. Compatible material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and titanium.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42 grade high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for durability and heat resistance
• Variable pitch at 4 to 6 TPI reduces vibration and improves chip clearance across varying material cross-sections
• Vari-raker tooth set minimizes blade stress and extends service life
• Positive rake angle for aggressive, efficient cutting on a wide range of metals
• 0.058-inch kerf width provides clean, precise cuts with minimal material waste
• Welded construction eliminates connector fatigue points for reliable continuous operation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade welded bandsaw blade for band saws accepting a 12-foot 6-inch by 1-inch blade in professional metalworking and fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with bandsaw equipment. Disconnect and lock out power to the saw before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Verify blade tension and blade guide alignment according to the saw manufacturer specifications before resuming operation. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling bandsaw blades.
