Different blades are designed for use with different surfaces. You should consider the characteristics of the blade itself, the size, and quality and the intensity of the materials you want to cut.
When producing high quality diamond saw blades, the diamond content is given great consideration by the manufacturer. The higher the diamond content, the higher the cost and typically the longer the life of the saw blade.
It can be used dry and wet in operation but it's favorable to use the blade with water. Most concrete saws will have a special nozzle used to attach a garden hose to supply the saw blade with a constant stream of water. The constant water flow helps to cool and prolong the life of your diamond blade. It also suppresses dust produced while concrete cutting.
User should use earplugs, gloves and a mask which can cover and protect the face and eyes. The dust may be harmful if inhaled so it's a good idea to also use a dust mask while cutting with a diamond blade (especially dry cutting process). First aid kit must also be present in the workplace and especially on every cutting session in case of any accident. It is also important to keep in mind that the workplace should be clean, comfortable and highly ventilated. It is advisable to give the blade periods of rest when dry cutting to allow the blade to cool as they can overheat and this can affect the life of your blade.
What about the concrete saw?
Your diamond saw blade must also be compatible with the concrete saw that you are planning to use. You can reduce the performance and cutting life of your saw blade by operating it at speeds above or below those that are recommended by the manufacturer.
Working with diamond blades and concrete saws must have safety measures. This is very important to avoid any accident and to have a longer life saw and blades. Following the user manual and guidelines are very important in order to use the tool properly and to prevent it from any damage.
