Diamond is the hardest mineral ever discovered by humans, according to the grade of Mohs mineral hardness. This makes diamonds valuable when crafted into fine jewelry and collectibles.
As technology advances, the construction industry has discovered other uses for diamonds. They mix the diamonds into the diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide, which cuts almost everything, including metal, stone, concrete, asphalt, bricks, ceramics and gems. This new material, called a diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide, is now used in a variety of architectural projects that require cutting surfaces and materials.
Diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide have different rim configurations for a variety of purposes and needs. These configurations can affect how the diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide cuts a particular surface or material.
Diamond segmentation
The diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide has deeper sections or slits around the edges of its blade core. These sections allow the airflow to cool the diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide and help remove cutting debris.
Segmented blades are available in a variety of diameter sizes. However, they are particularly leading the market for diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide of 12 inches in diameter and larger. These blades have a medium to hard bond for wet and dry cutting. In addition, these diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide have a longer life than other types of diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide.
The cutting of the diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide may be smooth and fast, but cracking still occurs. This makes the diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide more suitable for dry cutting. These diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide are more effective when cutting concrete, asphalt, bricks, blocks, limestone and other hard materials.
Continuous rim
Unlike a diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide, a continuous rim blade does not have any segments or cuts. Instead, they have a sturdy, uninterrupted rim that cuts easily broken materials. Since the water cools the diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide and removes the cut debris, there is no segmentation, making the continuous rim more suitable for wet cutting.
The continuous rim blade can be between 4 inches and 14 inches in diameter. Hand-held grinders use continuous rims with smaller diameters, while circular saws and tile saws use larger diameters. Despite the slower cutting speed of these inserts, they produce the highest quality cuts in all diamond insert options.
Continuous rim blades are suitable for cutting ceramic tiles, porcelain, granite, stone, glass and other related materials.
Turbine blade
The edges of the turbine blades are uninterrupted with serrated edges. This allows the diamond grinding wheel for tungsten carbide to cut faster, while cutting smoothly, and the perfect combination between the segmented blade and the continuous rim blade.
Turbine blades range in diameter from 4 inches to 12 inches. All sizes of turbine blades can be used in grinding machines, circular saws and tile saws to cut materials. These blades have a soft to medium bond that is suitable for a variety of applications – whether general or specific. In addition, the blades work well in both dry and wet cutting applications.
The turbine blades can cut the material cut by the continuous rim blades. These materials include tiles, stone, marble, granite, masonry and other building materials.
