"Engineered in response to increasing customer demand for cutting large structural components for commercial construction and infrastructure projects, the new LENOX® HRX™ Bi-Metal Band Saw Blade features:

• Long blade life. LENOX POWER BLAST TECHNOLOGY® strengthens the blade to minimize breaks, and durable teeth for cutting large structural beams.
• Straight cuts through wide cross-sections. The LENOX HRX™ Bi-Metal Band Saw Blade is designed to improve chip flow and reduce blade deflection for cutting efficiency. The blade′s tooth geometry was designed to minimize edge chipping and crooked cuts.
• Wide kerf limits pinching in larger beams. The HRX™ bi-metal band saw blade utilizes alternating set teeth, which widen the cutting channel to limit blade pinching.
