Lenox 95429QPB165080 Welded Bandsaw Blade 2-3 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 95429QPB165080 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade designed for demanding metal-cutting applications on industrial and commercial bandsaws. Measuring 200 inches (16 feet 8 inches) in length and 1-1/4 inches wide with a 0.042-inch back thickness, this blade uses a variable pitch of 2 to 3 TPI to reduce vibration and improve cut quality across a wide range of material cross-sections. The M42+ high speed steel tooth material and positive rake angle deliver aggressive cutting action and extended tooth life. It is installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metal fabricators working with production or job-shop bandsaws.

This blade is suited for contour-free straight cutting on vertical or horizontal bandsaws in production and job-shop environments. The variable pitch pattern helps manage harmonic vibration when cutting thick or interrupted cross-sections. Compatible material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, titanium, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals, making it a versatile choice for shops cutting a broad mix of stock.

Key Features

• M42+ grade high speed steel teeth for extended cutting life on hard and abrasive metals
• Variable 2 to 3 TPI pitch reduces vibration and improves surface finish on varied cross-sections
• Spring steel back provides flexibility and fatigue resistance during continuous operation
• Ground tooth form with positive rake angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Single level tooth set and 0.0700-inch kerf width for precise, controlled cuts
• Welded construction provides a consistent joint for reliable tracking on bandsaw wheels

Compatibility

Designed for use on industrial and commercial bandsaws accepting a 1-1/4-inch wide blade with a 200-inch (16 feet 8 inches) loop length. Suitable for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, titanium, aluminum, and general non-ferrous metals.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with bandsaw blade tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and de-energize the bandsaw fully before removing the old blade or installing a new one. Verify wheel guides, blade guards, and tension settings are adjusted to the blade width and back thickness per the saw manufacturer specifications before resuming operation. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling bandsaw blade stock.
