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.

Tile Saws and Their Types


Tile saws are available in different sizes. Some tile saws can give quicker cuts and can hold larger tiles without problems as compared to others. The larger tile saws have a steel or plastic water tray. Of these the steel trays are more durable while the plastic water trays are lighter in weight and cheaper to replace. Sliding tray saws are by far the most common saws seen on the jobsite. Tile saws use adjustable fences for angled cuts and square cuts. Fence stops are used to get multiple cuts of exactly the same size.





For ceramic or porcelain tiles, you need a water tray in your tile saw. Regular saws cannot handle the heat required to cut these materials, but wet tile saws cool the diamond blade while cutting. Use of wet tile saws gives your tiles a smoother edge. Tile setters use wet tile saws to trim tiles into fashionable patterns apart from trimming to fit the edges of a room. A large capacity water pump is included as standard accessory in most wet cutting tile saws.




Tile saws for cutting large stone slabs have two basic varieties Overhead Rail Saws and Track Saws. A 4 horse power Track Saw is very common sight at job sites and comes with a granite blade, laser guide and roller tables. A robust reinforced steel structure ensuring maximum rigidity and durability







For people who work with small stones, bricks, tiles or blocks precision is crucial to the end result. The stone or tile you cut must fit perfectly, just as the machine and the blade you use must fit your work situation perfectly. For plunge cuts tile saws include a spring that makes press cuts smoother and more comfortable. When buying a tile saw ask if it can make plunge cuts.
