Segmented Blade
Generally speaking, there are three types of blades: segmented blades, continuous rim blades and turbo blades. The type of segment on a blade not only determines how it produced by diamond saw blades manufacturer, but also how it cuts by end users. In this passage, we will introduce the segmented blade.
Segmented blades are good choice for cutting marble and granite slabs, concrete, asphalt, brick, block, and other building materials. They are available in a wide selection of diameters from small to large. Due to the production method diamond saw blades manufacturer mostly uses, the segments are always wider than the steel core. The clearance allows the cutting edge to penetrate through the material without the steel core coming into contact with the material being cut. The slurry has a wearing effect on the segments, so the quicker slurry is removed from a cut, the longer the blade will last. The gaps between the segments are referred to as gullets, which serve to improve air flow, dissipate heat, and remove slurry from the cut, helping to maintain the blade’s cutting performance. The size and shape of the gullets vary from blade to blade and will depend on the type of material the blade designed to cut. The more abrasive the material, the wider the slot should be to allow for better heat dissipation. It may not be obvious for angle grinder diamond blade but still makes sense. For example, an angle grinder concrete blade tends to have narrower gullets than blades for abrasive material cutting. Gullets also improve the blade's flexibility to prevent cracks in the core when used for demanding applications. Gullets commonly chosen by diamond saw blades manufacturer include U-shaped gullet, keyhole gullet, teardrop gullet, angled gullet and so on.
Segmented diamond blades feature individual segments along the cutting edge. At BSP TOOLS, we produce various kinds of segments for our diamond tools. Segmented turbo blade, as a primary branch of segmented blade, can offer faster and more aggressive cutting, which makes is increasingly popular.
