Lenox QP22019CL14000 Bandsaw Blade 14 Ft 4-6 Tpi Bi-metal

Product Description

The LENOX QP22019CL14000 is a welded bi-metal bandsaw blade designed for professional metal-cutting applications. Measuring 14 feet in length and 1-1/2 inches wide with a 0.05-inch blade thickness, this blade is built on a spring steel back with M42+ high speed steel teeth. The variable pitch tooth form runs at 4 to 6 TPI with a Vari-Raker tooth set, delivering smooth cuts and reduced vibration across a broad range of metal stock. It is intended for use by machinists, metal fabricators, and maintenance trades operating horizontal or vertical band saws in shop environments.

This blade is suited for cutting alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, mold steel, bearing steel, aluminum, other non-ferrous metals, and titanium. The variable pitch pattern makes it effective on both solid bar stock and structural shapes where a fixed-pitch blade would chatter or stall. It performs in production cutting and job-shop environments where consistent kerf quality and blade life across mixed material types are priorities.

Key Features

• M42+ high speed steel teeth bonded to a spring steel back for durability and flex resistance
• Variable 4 to 6 TPI pitch with Vari-Raker tooth set reduces vibration and improves surface finish
• 0.0800-inch kerf width minimizes material loss per cut
• Positive rake angle promotes aggressive, efficient chip removal on metals
• 14-foot welded loop eliminates a weld joint introduced at the saw, ensuring consistent blade tension
• Rated for a wide material application range including titanium and stainless steel

Compatibility

Designed for band saws that accept a 14-foot by 1-1/2-inch blade. Verify your saw's wheel diameter, blade guide clearance, and maximum blade width before installation to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Blade installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or maintenance technician familiar with band saw equipment. Disconnect and lock out power to the saw before removing the existing blade or mounting the new one. Verify blade tension and tracking per the saw manufacturer's specifications before making a cut. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling coiled or uncoiled bandsaw blades, as spring-back during uncoiling is a recognized injury hazard.
