OX Tools’ PU10 Diamond Blade Offers Best of Both Worlds

CRANFORD, NJ (July 20, 2016) – The new OX PU10 cuts the most common materials found on a construction site. It cuts quickly due to its continuous rim design that features an edge that is serrated, giving the blade faster cutting speeds while maintaining a smooth cut.

“Diamond blades are very expensive when compared to abrasive wheels. While the initial cost is enough to scare off some purchasers, what is important is the cost per cut. Abrasive wheels have a very short lifespan, and the diameter decreases with wear, reducing depth of cut and are not effective when cutting harder materials. So, users can consume up to 50 abrasive wheels to one diamond blade,” said John Diplock, managing director of OX Tools.
Additionally, the reinforced center plate offers increased safety while the vibration dampening means quieter cuts. Available from 4-14 inches, these blades can cut granite, natural stone, clay products, engineering bricks, concrete products and metal.

Each segment is laser welded to the steel core. This is a premium connection method that offers the blade high mechanical strength and rigidity, ensuring greater stability during the cut.

Bosch 12″ and 14″ Premium Segmented Rim Diamond Blade reduction rings are 1″ to 20mm, which allows the blade to be used on application-specific concrete-cutting saws. The drive pin ensures the blade can be used on a walk-behind saw. These blades provide long life and smooth, fast cuts in concrete and masonry.

“Bosch 12″ and 14″ Premium Segmented Rim Diamond Blades are the right tool for the job when cutting concrete and hard masonry materials,” said Matt Van, product manager, concrete accessories, Robert Bosch Tool Corporation. “Vibration and wobble are the enemies of any quality cut in hard materials. These premium segmented blades reduce that concern and deliver a smooth cut.”
