Lenox 95950QPB154725 Welded Bandsaw Blade 2 to 3 Tpi

Product Description

The LENOX 95950QPB154725 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade engineered for demanding metal-cutting applications in professional shop and fabrication environments. Measuring 186 inches long and 1-1/4 inches wide with a 0.042-inch body thickness, this blade runs in vertical or horizontal bandsaws that accept that loop length. The variable-pitch tooth form at 2 to 3 TPI reduces harmonic vibration and chatter during cuts, extending both blade life and cut quality. The M42-plus high speed steel tooth material provides hardness and heat resistance needed when cutting tough alloys and exotic metals.

This blade is suited for production and job-shop use where a wide range of metal stock is processed on a single machine. The variable pitch and positive rake angle make it effective on solid bar, structural shapes, and tubing in materials including alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and titanium. It is installed and operated by machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working with industrial bandsaw equipment.

Key Features

• Bi-metal construction with M42-plus high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for flexibility and edge retention
• Variable pitch at 2 to 3 TPI reduces vibration and improves cut finish on a wide range of stock profiles
• Positive tooth rake angle increases cutting aggression and chip clearance on metals
• Single level tooth set and ground tooth form promote consistent kerf width of 0.070 inches
• QXP series designation indicates ground variable-tooth geometry for extended blade life
• Welded loop construction ready to install without additional joining steps

Compatibility

Designed for horizontal and vertical bandsaws that accept a 186-inch blade loop, 1-1/4 inches wide. Verify your machine's wheel diameter and blade guide specifications before installation to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Bandsaw blade installation and tensioning should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician following the bandsaw manufacturer's guidelines. Power down and lock out the machine before removing the old blade or mounting the new one. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling the coiled blade, as the teeth present a laceration hazard during uncoiling and threading. Confirm proper blade tension and guide bearing alignment before running the saw under load.
