Overview

LENOX has defined performance in the reciprocating saw blade category since inventing the first bi-metal blade in 1977. LENOX has used its century of cutting expertise to lead the way in reciprocating blade performance and is redefining performance levels in the bi-metal reciprocating category with the introduction of Power Blast Technology. Power Blast Technology refers to a high speed blasting process known as peening, which is applied to the tang and cutting edge of LENOX Bi-Metal Reciprocating Saw Blades to reduce breaks and increase durability. The process is commonly used in the aerospace and automotive industries to strengthen steel and has been used in manufacturing LENOX Band Saw blades for years. By blasting the cutting edge and tang of the blade, a layer of compressive stress is created on the surface of the blade in the areas that receive the most abuse. This compressive stress reduces the formation of cracks which causes blade failure.

Features

• For cutting cast iron, tile, brick and natural stone
• Nickel alloy brazed diamond particles maintain sharpness to keep cutting after conventional carbide grit fails
• A narrow kerf design enables thinner, faster cuts
• Unlike bulky snap cutters which can crush pipes and leave ragged, uneven cuts, LENOX Diamond cuts cleanly
• Double chrome alloy backing steel provides extra stability
