Helpful Hints for the proper selection of Asphalt Diamond Blades

When you are cutting only asphalt, a dedicated blade is best. The cost for these diamond blades is higher. However, the lower cost per cut makes them a great choice. The first thing to consider when choosing an asphalt diamond blade, is your saw. Some blades are designed for 13 HP walk behind saws, like our Premium Series. Others, like our Supreme Series U-Slot, are made for higher torque created by more powerful saws. For pavement saws in the 65 HP range, use our professional series.

Selecting the correct diamond blades for cutting Asphalt

Next consider segment design. Most asphalt blades feature undercut protection. There are many different protection styles. Some blades like our Segmented Heavy Duty Series feature a slanted type undercut protection. Another popular style is the wide gullet U-Slot featured in our U-Slot Heavy Duty Series. This series features alternating deep segments. The U-Slot gullet design clears the larger pieces of debris expelled when cutting asphalt.
