Diamond blade saws are more than capable of cutting a variety of materials, so begin by thinking about your needs. For instance, do you want a saw that will work with different things or one that works best with something specific, such as stone or granite.

Today, development and use of these specialized tools have expanded to various industries, as demand never ceases and new applications are being discovered. One of the most demanded tools is the “resin-bonded wheel”, which is manufactured through the curing process of bonding diamond or CBN abrasives, with inorganic fillers, and using resins as binders, such as phenol and polymer. Resin bonded wheels are now effectively applicable to ail sorts of grinding operations such as surface grinding, cylindrical and centerless grinding, grooving and internal grinding, etc. It is ideally used for grinding super alloys, cermet, ceramic, glass, ferrite, high-speed steel, tool alloys, and many other new ultra-hard materials.

Superabrasive grinding wheels have two equally important components. While the grit, (diamond or CBN) does the work, it couldn’t function without a partner holding it in place. In the case of resin bond grinding wheels, that partner is phenolic resin.

Diamond wheels provide the maximum performance and high-speed cutting on demanding materials. Proper care and maintenance will ensure that the wheel gives the superior results for the maximum time. The steps are not difficult and well worth the effort.

The diameter of a grinding wheel can range from just 1″ to 20″, they can go from just 0.035″ to up to 1/2″ thick. The smallest wheels are used for different operations like auto body work while the largest ones can cut through railway tracks and thick metal constructions.
