LENOX, a name synonymous with technologically advanced band saw blades
and fluids, introduces the new TRI-TECH CT™ Band Saw Blade designed for
cutting large cross-sections or difficult to machine metals. The
TRI-TECH CT blade is extremely versatile in its ability to cut a wide
range of materials from high strength steels to nickel-based alloys.
The TRI-TECH CT blade has a set style tooth pattern that is specifically
designed to cut straight and eliminate the pinching that can occur when
cutting high stress metals like Inconel® and other Super Alloys. The
high grade carbide tips are precision ground for efficient cutting while
maintaining a balanced work load between the teeth. The proprietary
tooth geometry of TRI-TECH CT creates three thick chips with each pass,
making a more productive cut by keeping the blade moving through work
hardened materials. The high performance backing steel goes through a
detailed preparation process that minimizes body breakage and extends
the life of the blade.
“The TRI-TECH CT blade has a number of technological advancements and an
extremely durable design to prolong the life of the blade,” said Matthew
Lacroix, Senior Product Manager, LENOX. “The blade’s versatility allows
it to cut a variety of materials with ease, making it ideal for high
production manufacturing facilities that cut large cross sections or
difficult to machine metals. The increased productivity delivers the
results expected from a high-performance carbide blade.”
TRI-TECH CT is available at LENOX distributors and comes in fourteen
specifications ranging from 1¼” to 3” in width. Two new TPI
configurations make it possible to cut these high stress metals in an
even wider range of sizes.
