Lenox 95745QPB165005 Welded Bandsaw Blade 4-6 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 95745QPB165005 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop and industrial environments. At 197 inches (16 feet 5 inches) long, 1.5 inches wide, and 0.05 inches thick, this blade delivers a variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch using a Vari-Raker tooth set and positive rake angle. The M42+ high speed steel tooth tips are electron-beam welded to a spring steel back, a construction that resists fatigue and extends blade life under continuous production cuts. Machinists, fabricators, and tool room technicians are the primary installers of this blade type.

This blade is suited for vertical and horizontal band saw machines that accept a 197-inch blade length and a 1.5-inch blade width. The variable pitch pattern reduces harmonics and vibration when cutting solid bar stock, structural sections, and tubing. Stated material applications include alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, titanium, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals, making it appropriate for production cutting rooms and job shops handling a wide range of workpiece materials.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction: M42+ high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for toughness and edge retention
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI Vari-Raker tooth set reduces vibration and noise during cutting
• Positive rake angle promotes aggressive chip clearance on ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• 0.080-inch kerf width provides predictable material removal rates
• QXP series blade rated for alloy steel, stainless steel, titanium, aluminum, and mold steel
• Toothed, milled, and variable cutting edge style for consistent surface finish

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or upgrade bandsaw blade for vertical and horizontal band saw machines requiring a 197-inch blade length and a 1.5-inch blade width with a variable-pitch bi-metal blade.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician with the band saw fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Confirm wheel diameter, blade guides, and blade tension settings match the manufacturer specifications for the host machine before mounting. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled blades, and inspect the weld joint for cracks or irregularities before tensioning. Do not exceed the blade speed rating of the host machine for the material being cut.
