Tips for working with diamond cutting blades:

Only cut, never grind!

As the name suggests, diamond cutting blades are used to cut the material. However, the disc must never be misused for grinding. This is because the material is not designedfor angled use, i.e. for grinding surfaces. This would result in the core bending. Diamond segments would also be removed on one side. If the cut-off wheel is then reused for its actual task, there is a high level of wear and an increased risk of injury.

Observe cooling breaks!

For diamond cutting blades in the lower and medium quality segment, a cooling break must be observed if you want to work with the blade for longer. This required cooling time is specified by the manufacturer of these products.

Sharpen diamond cutting blades quickly and effectively:

Is the diamond coating on the blade still visible, but sparks are already flying when cutting and the cutting performance has noticeably diminished? Then the diamond cutting blade can be made ready to cut again with a simple trick. To do this, it is necessary to immerse the blade in sand-lime brick up to segment height and make 10-20 cuts. The blade is then sharp again and can continue to be used for cutting.
