Diamond Blades

Diamond Blade is used especially for cutting abrasive materials. Just like other blades, diamond blade is used in the construction industry, for building repairs, remodeling and shape cutting.

The main purpose for a diamond blade is cutting concrete, brick, block, stone and other materials. It is made with steel and has powder metal which is mixed with diamond crystals and heated and carved into diamond segments, which are also known as the cutting teeth of the blade. The cutting teeth are then attached to the steel core through welding. The other techniques include electroplating the diamond crystal directly to the steel core, or brazing is also used to create a single layered diamond blade.

Diamond Blades don’t cut, they grind. Their cutting teeth or diamond segments are rectangular in shape, which contain diamond crystals for grinding through extremely hard materials, and a diamond blade can be used with or a without water for work as well, which makes it very easy for the technicians to work with them.

For instance, you may choose ceramic tiles due to their hypoallergenic quality or quarry tiles for a non-slip floor. In order to cut tiles of various materials to size, a host of choices are available to suit cutting requirement.




Diamond Blades are best used with a wet tile saw. A regular saw cannot handle the heat required to cut hard materials, but modern tile saws have a constant water supply to cool the blade. These blades actually do not cut instead grind through a channel in the tile. A circular saw blade has no segments; it has a high diamond concentration and comes in sizes as small as 3.5” to cut small ceramic tiles. The ones with segments have a steel core to which the segments are welded.

The diamond concentration at the segments is kept high for better grinding results. These diamond blades are long lasting if kept cool while cutting. Wet tile saws are best for wet cutting and give the diamond blades a long life while for dry cutting you will need to cut at intervals to allow the blade to cool down. Dry cutting is considered dangerous for health due to the flying dust that can be inhaled to the lungs. So the best saw to mount your diamond blade on is a wet cutting saw.
