Silverline 589673 Concrete and Stone Cutting Diamond Blade 230 x 22.23 mm Segmented Rim

I recently laid a patio in June 2013 using Blockleys clay bricks which left me with quite a lot of cutting to do around my bay window and edges . I found that the diamond blades were quite expensive and couldn't justify a profession quality disc as this was just a one off project . I came across this cheap and cheerful disc and tongue in cheek I thought I would give it a crack of the whip as it cost less than a tenner including the postage . To my amazement and delight , it cut the hard baked clay bricks like a hot knife through butter using my sliding compound mitre saw instead of the commonly used and inaccurate angle grinder , this enabled me to cut the 200mm bricks lengthways as well as cross cutting . I have so far cut around 60 bricks , and although its showing small signs of tiring it still has a long way to go before it needs replacing , this product is just fantastic value for money and I can't speak high enough of it . I'm about to order another just as a spare . My only criticism is that I could only get a 230mm diameter and not the 255mm which my saw requires , but you can easily overcome this by putting a thin piece of wood underneath the brick just to raise it up , or do as I did and cut the brick with a very acute angle on it and not a 90 degree angle , by doing this , when you snap the waste piece off , any residual bits that stop on the good side , don't interfere with whatever is next to it , This also makes it easier to skim a sliver of brick of the edge as you only take the top part off and not have to cut a 90 degree angle the whole thickness of the brick . Just buy it , you will be delighted !

great for the price

I bought 2 of these discs after reading the existing reviews which were helpful, I compared the reviews to other similar products and this Disc came out favourably. So far, I've made cuts totally 60 feet in 2 inch thick paving slabs which it cut with ease, the disc is starting to show signs of wear and I don't think it would cut another 60 feet, However, for the money, I really didn't expect it to do as well as it has done. I have some more cutting to do in old concrete, I think the disc will cope well enough and I probably won't need to change onto the second disc which will become a spare for the next big job. I can recommend this product as good value for money and an excellent product for the task I tackled. It obviously wouldn't do as well as a disc costing ten times the price, but I wouldn't expect it to. I would certainly buy this brand again. Certainly adequate for most DIY tasks and even professional small scale building tasks.The discs last longer, cut better and are less expensive overall than fibre discs.

Good quick service, thank you

I needed to cut about 25ft of sandstone paving. I had a fairly decent carborundum disc, and it was burnt out after about 8ft of cutting. Having looked at some very expensive diamond blades, I decided to take a chance on this much cheaper one. It paid off, and I managed to cut the remaining slabs (and a further 10ft of concrete slabs) easily with no obvious reduction in performance. For my requirements the disc was therefore ideal.

This disc is amazing. I was trying to cut concrete roof tiles with a normal disc and it was talking ages and the grinder was forever kicking and bucking so I gave up. Ordered this after reading the reviews and I'm glad I did. Until you use it you won't believe how fast it cuts. You have to adjust the cutting angle slightly but boy does it go through concrete and tiles like butter! Also, there was very little grinder kicking and bucking with this blade. It took me longer to fit the blade than it did to cut the tiles! Amazing blade and for £10, its an absolute bargain!

This cutting disc gets a mixed bag of reviews. I was half way through a job cutting flags for path, using the fibre type discs which came with the grinder I'd bought. Those discs got chewed up in minutes so I bought this one. Chalk and cheese - it went through the flags very quickly and still seems to have a lot of life in it. Can't give it 5 stars because I haven't used it that much.

Delivered early and great price

Weinig stof bij slijpen van betontegels, scherpe snede en schijfjes gaan erg lang mee.

Gratamente sorpendido con el disco, por el precio no esperaba gran cosa, aunque de momento le he dado un uso muy puntual (unos 4 metros de corte en hormigón) completó el corte rápidamente y sin resistencia, aún es poco uso pero no se sobrecalentó y no aprecio desgaste. No sé cómo rendira para un uso profesional, pero para uso puntual va perfecto. Lo volveria a comprar sin ninguna duda.

Lo uso da parecchi mesi , finora nessun difetto/problema 🙂

Lame performante pour couper de la pierre sans avoir besoin d'être précis. Pour les coupes de précision, je n'ai pas essayé car j'ai un disque diamant Stanley payé 5x plus cher et qui doit être bien plus efficace. Je me sers de ce disque pour couper de la pierre en extérieur, j'en suis content. Il ne s'use pas trop vite.

Buen producto, para el precio que tiene hace muy bien su función y corta bien el cemento y yo lo use en hormigon con fibra y lo corté bastante bien, eso si los hay mejores, pero por su precio a mí me a ido bien.
