Description
Features
- Turbo blades typically have soft to medium bonds for a variety of general purpose to specific cutting applications.
- Turbo blades feature a continuous rim with an edge that is serrated.
- This serrated edge is designed to give the blade faster cutting speeds while maintaining a smooth cut, combining the best qualities from both segmented and continuous rim blades.
- Diamond blades do not cut, they actually grind through the material by exposing new diamond at the right moment just before the old diamond wears away.
- The newly exposed diamonds again will wear, chip, or break out of the metal bond in the segment, while the metal bond gradually wears away to expose new diamond. This process is repeated over and over until there is no diamond remaining and the blade is worn out.
- Ideally and to get the maximum life out of a diamond blade, the metal should wear away at just the right time to expose new diamond for optimum cutting performance.
- If the metal wears away too quickly, the diamonds are exposed to soon and get torn out of the metal bond before they are fully worn. The result is a very short blade life.
- If the metal wears away too slowly, the diamonds wear away before new diamond is exposed. This is often referred to as a 'glazed blade'. Without exposed diamond the blade will not cut.
- Abrasive materials like green concrete and asphalt will wear the metal bond very fast, so blades for these materials have a much harder metal bond to resist this abrasion.
- The opposite occurs on a hard clay paver the clay paver is not abrasive enough to wear the metal bond fast enough to expose fresh diamond, therefore a different and much softer alloy is needed for cutting these types.
- The single most important factor for the life of the blade is to match it to the job application and the type of equipment it is being used on.
Ideal for
- Porcelain, stone and granite.

Brilliant
The range on offer is complete, the prices are god, and the items were well packed and delivered promptly. All good.
Abbot & Ashby every time if you want quality that works and lasts.
Exactly what I was looking for. A company in the states use an almost identical knife under a different brand name, minor differences, nothing impactful. This has been the knife I have used for work for 10+ years. I keep 2 on hand in case something happens to my daily use one. I will gladly pay the exchange and shipping cost to keep using what works so well for me.
Excellent product Excellent price just needed to wait a little longer for them to arrive, but that's no problem really.
The ordering and delivery process was very straightforward, very happy with the products I ordered. Great service from Beyond Tools, I will use them again.
I have been chasing additional bobbins for years. The original seller did not offer additional spindles.
Beyond tools is able to supply additional spindles. Great
We purchased from beyond tools as we were struggling to locate some brass items in the UK and Europe, we got a great prompt service.
Great service and range of products
The mini hinges are good quality and the service was prompt considering we are in the United Kingdom.
