Lenox 93714RPB103315 Bandsaw Blade 5-8 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 93714RPB103315 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for metal-cutting applications in industrial and fabrication environments. Part of the LENOX RX Plus series, it measures 10 feet 10.5 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 0.035 inches thick, with a variable pitch of 5 to 8 teeth per inch. The blade body is spring steel backed, and the teeth are M42 high-speed steel with a Vari-Raker tooth set and positive rake angle. This combination delivers efficient chip removal and extended blade life across a range of workpiece sizes. Metalworking shops and maintenance technicians rely on this blade for consistent, repeatable cuts on structural steel, tubing, and solid bar stock.

This blade is suited for contour-free straight cuts on horizontal and vertical band saw machines that accept a 1-inch-wide blade in the 10-foot 10.5-inch loop length. The variable 5 to 8 TPI pitch pattern reduces harmonic vibration during cutting, making it effective across varying cross-sections and wall thicknesses. It is appropriate for production cutting in job shops, fabrication facilities, and maintenance operations where bi-metal durability and consistent tooth performance are required. Installation and replacement are handled by metalworking technicians familiar with band saw tensioning and blade-tracking procedures.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42 high-speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for durability and flex resistance
• Variable 5 to 8 TPI pitch with Vari-Raker tooth set reduces vibration and noise during cutting
• Positive rake angle promotes aggressive, efficient material removal
• 0.058-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Welded loop construction in 10-foot 10.5-inch length fits specific band saw models requiring this blade size
• RX Plus series designation indicates enhanced tooth geometry for extended service life

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement welded bandsaw blade for band saw machines that accept a 1-inch-wide blade with a 10-foot 10.5-inch loop length. Verify blade width, length, and tooth pitch range against your machine specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Band saw blade installation should be performed by a qualified metalworking technician following the machine manufacturer's tensioning and tracking guidelines. Power down and lock out the band saw before removing the old blade or installing the new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade, and confirm proper blade tracking and guard adjustment before resuming operation. Consult the machine manufacturer's manual for correct tension settings specific to a 1-inch bi-metal blade.
