What are diamond tools and what are they used for?
Diamond tools are used to cut, drill, mill, and polish construction materials, and they contain industrial diamonds. These diamonds stand out for their extreme hardness, wear resistance, and ability to withstand high temperatures, making them ideal for demanding jobs.
What is the difference between a segmented, turbo, and continuous blade?
- Segmented: It has slots or cuts along the edge that divide the surface into several segments.
- Turbo: It has a wavy rim that improves cooling and speeds up cutting.
- Continuous: It has a smooth rim without segments, allowing for smoother and more precise cuts. Ideal for delicate materials.
Can I use the tools for dry and wet cutting?
- Yes, it is possible. However, not all tools are suitable for both dry and wet cutting.
- Dry cutting allows for faster and more precise cuts, although it generates more dust and debris.
- On the other hand, wet cutting is better for deeper and longer-lasting cuts, as water helps cool the blade, improving cutting quality and safety.
What safety measures should I consider when using tools?
There are several important factors to keep in mind:
- Never work without proper protection.
- Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection, gloves, a dust mask, and safety footwear.
- Wear fitted clothing without loose parts that could get caught.
