carbon steel
|
| |
Blades with one-piece carbon steel construction available as spring tempered "hard back" blades
or "flex back" style with hardened teeth and a softer, flexible back. Both types feature good wear
resistance and economy. Hard back blades resist swaging and scoring, offer straight cuts at fast
cutting rates, accept heavier feed pressure than flexible back carbon steel blades, but are
more likely to crack when run at high speeds on small wheel diameters. Typical applications include
wood and wood products, non-ferrous metals and mild steel.

Bi-metal bandsaw blades have cobalt high speed steel tips with a hardness of Rc 63-65. Bi-metal blades stay sharp longer than carbon
steel blades in all materials. They can also be used on alloy steels including stainless steel.

Lenox Tri-Master® carbide tipped bandsaw blades provide unsurpassed heat and
wear resistance. Precision ground teeth result in smooth cuts with an excellent finish.
Applications include abrasive, non-ferrous metals, aluminum castings, fiberglass, graphite,
plastics and other non-metallic materials. They are also excellent for wood cutting, particularly
for abrasive woods like teak and other tropical hardwoods.
