Dry cutting


What kind of blade do you need for dry cutting? In this case, it will need to be very durable. However, even the highest quality blades cannot be used continuously without cooling, so it is recommended that you take a break from cutting porcelain tiles every 2 minutes. You should then only start cutting again once the blade has cooled completely to avoid damaging the equipment.


Angled cutting


In addition to the two methods mentioned earlier, you may also encounter the challenge of chamfering porcelain tiles, i.e. cutting their edges at an angle of 45 degrees. This is very important when laying tiles in corners. Chamfering allows you to match the tiles in the corners perfectly and can be done with an angle grinder.


Now the question is - which blade is best for cutting the angle of the porcelain tile? Please note that in this case you will need a continuous blade, which should also have extra reinforcement. This can greatly reduce the risk of damaging the tiles. If in doubt, it is best to ask the seller if it is suitable for this situation, as chamfering tiles with a hand-held angle grinder requires a high degree of precision and care. Specialist contractors offering renovation services use special machines for this purpose, with replaceable blades to ensure precise cutting at 45 degree angles.

Which diamond blade is best for cutting porcelain?


In addition to the previously mentioned criteria for choosing the best diamond blade for cutting porcelain, you should also look at the technical specifications of the equipment that the blade will be used on. There are many blades on the market with different specifications and this is something that you should always check before you buy.


One aspect to check is the cutting speed. Blades used for porcelain and other hard materials should not exceed a cutting speed in the range of 30-39 m/s. This is very important to avoid damage to the blade during use. Blades with cutting speeds in excess of 40 m/s are suitable for soft materials such as wood or limestone.


The second very important aspect of this diamond blade is its size, i.e. its diameter. This value is crucial for the equipment you use to cut tiles. There are various sizes on the market. The smallest blades are 40 mm in diameter, while the largest can even be as large as 900 mm. In general, the larger the blade, the larger the material you will be able to handle. Larger diameter blades can also be used for more powerful tools.


Another parameter to bear in mind is the diameter of the mounting flange. The most common is a disc with a mounting hole diameter of 22.2 mm, although some models have larger holes. So, if you want to know which blade is right for your situation, check the size of the mounting flange of the equipment you will be using.
