Description
Whitby Abrasives 4 1/2" wave diamond cutting blade is designed for cutting ceramic tile, porcelain, granite, marble, and other hard stone surfaces with angle grinders. The wave rim design provides a smooth, clean cut on brittle surfaces. Rated to MAX 12,000 RPM.
Diamond abrasive provides far longer service life than conventional abrasive wheels when cutting hard, brittle materials such as tile, stone, and porcelain. These blades are well-suited for tile setters, countertop fabricators, and contractors working with hard surface materials.
Each blade is made with a high-concentration diamond segment bonded to a steel core for long-lasting performance and smooth, chip-free cuts on hard surfaces.
