Lenox 94743QPB113505 Bandsaw Blade 138in 2-3 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX 94743QPB113505 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop and industrial environments. Measuring 138 inches in length and 1-1/4 inches in width, this blade runs a variable 2 to 3 TPI pitch built on an M42-grade high speed steel tooth strip bonded to a spring steel back. The QXP series ground tooth form with a positive rake angle and single level set delivers clean, efficient cuts across a wide range of metals. Kerf width is 0.070 inches. Licensed metalworkers and machinists will find this blade suited to continuous production cutting where tooth durability and cut quality are priorities.

This blade is designed for vertical and horizontal metal-cutting bandsaws with an 11-foot 6-inch blade capacity. Compatible material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metal, and titanium. The variable pitch pattern reduces vibration and harmonic resonance during cuts, making it particularly useful when transitioning between varying cross-sections or wall thicknesses. Contour cutting is not the intended use for this blade configuration.

Key Features

• M42-grade high speed steel teeth for extended tooth life on hard and abrasive metals
• Variable 2 to 3 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves surface finish
• Ground tooth form with positive rake angle for efficient chip clearance
• Spring steel back for flexibility and fatigue resistance during continuous operation
• Single level tooth set and 0.070-inch kerf width for consistent, repeatable cuts
• QXP series construction rated for alloy steel, stainless steel, titanium, and non-ferrous materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style welded replacement blade for metal-cutting bandsaw machines requiring an 11-foot 6-inch blade length and 1-1/4-inch blade width. Suitable for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metal, and titanium.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tool-room technician with the machine fully powered down and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify wheel diameter, blade guide spacing, and blade tension specifications on the host machine before mounting. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade. Allow a short break-in period at reduced feed rate after installing a new blade to seat the tooth geometry and extend service life.
