Diamond Stone Blade for Cutting Granite, Marble and Hard Stone

Stone Diamond Blades are engineered to cut thick granite, marble, and hard stone. The turbo rim design is perfect for countertop fabrication and other fine detail work where a smooth clean cut is necessary. This blades strong steel core and unique cooling holes provide fast heat displacement. Use this blade on 7 in. angle grinders or circular saw with DM 7/8 in. arbor, 5/8 in. adapter is included.

Tiles Versus Slabs

You can cut granite that is in tile format with a normal circular saw using a dry-cut stone blade that is either carbide or diamond tipped. Because the tile is not thick, it will not bind the blade or heat it up. Slab material, on the other hand, requires a wet-cut circular saw which has specialty tubes running into the blade to keep water continually on it, cooling it as it cuts through thick slabs.

Protecting the Cut

All granite edges chip out when you use a saw to cut the edges, circular saws more so than tile wet saws or rail saws, because the blade of a circular saw vibrates more. This vibration leads to the blade jogging loose imperfections in the edge of the cut. Cover the cut edge with masking tape or duct tape before you cut to help hold the cut edge together and avoid large fragments chunking off.

Dust and Water

If at all possible, cut the granite material outdoors. Cutting granite tile creates stone dust, which is particularly heavy and thick. If you have to cut in an indoor setting, open any exterior windows and cover any doorways into lived-in sections with plastic sheeting to force any dust to remain in the area. This is especially true with the dry-cut method. Cutting the granite wet has the same issue, although it’s not with dry dust, but rather with wet dust that is a sludge-like substance.

Why use diamond tipped bladed over normal blades?

the uses for diamond tipped blades do go beyond masonary- you can get diamond impregnated blades for cutting metal, also. Most diamond blades are used for cutting concrete , brick, stone, block, tile, asphalt, fibercement siding, and terrazzo. There are many different styles of blades, and each has a semi-specific material to cut. Some blades require that they have a constant stream of water sprayed on them to cool the blades. Some are only for green, uncured concrete and asphalt. Some are for tile or porcelean only. The difference isn't the diamonds, but the material the blade is made out of. The medium that holds the diamonds in place in the blade is designed to wear at a different rate-depending on the material. Using a blade designed to cut block or cured concrete to cut asphalt will result in the blade galling up-basically you'll wear the exposed diamonds off, but the asphalt isn't abrasive enough to wear the medium down enough to get to the next layer of diamonds, ...
