Diamond blades for Petrol saw / Electric saw 350

The most commonly used tool on any construction site is the angle grinder. However, not all construction tasks can be performed with this equipment, since the maximum cutting depth of the largest angle grinder (230 mm) is only 70 mm. And if we need a deeper cut, an electric or gas-powered cut-off saw, as well as a floor saw, is used. On such equipment, 350 mm diamond blades or larger are installed as consumables.

Operations performed with a 350 mm diamond blade

With a diamond blade for concrete a wide range of tasks can be carried out:

• Widening and cutting out openings. 
• Working foundation blocks and floor slabs.
• Removing road surfacing.
• Cutting expansion joints in pavement.
• Cutting openings for utilities.
• Other types of demolition work.

When performing these operations, we may encounter materials of varying hardness and abrasiveness, which is why it's important to choose the right blade for the material being worked.

Choosing a 350 mm diamond blade for concrete

Thinking that almost any 350 mm blade is suitable for cutting concrete is a mistake many professionals make. Concrete can differ radically in its degree of cuttability depending on its strength and abrasiveness. And an improperly selected blade may not be able to handle the material. Abrasiveness is the ability of the material being worked to wear down the concrete cutting blade. Concrete can conditionally be divided into 3 types:

• Light (high abrasiveness). This category includes concrete up to class M200 without metal inclusion, fresh concrete, and foundation blocks. This material is easy to work with but quickly wears down a 350 mm diamond blade. The 350 mm concrete cutting blades Beton Pro, Uni Plus, and Bestseller Abrasive are ideal for working this material.
• Medium (moderate abrasiveness). These materials include more durable concrete up to class M400, as well as concrete reinforced with a small amount of metal. It can be cut using the 350 mm concrete blades Technic Advanced, Classic, XXL, and RS-L.
• Hard (low abrasiveness). This category includes durable Concrete M400 and higher, hydraulic engineering concrete, and concrete with a high degree of reinforcement. The Meteor and RS-Z blades are suitable for cutting this material.

All these blades will fit any type of cut-off saw, but it's better to choose a blade taking into account the power and type of your equipment.
