Offers numerous advantages over abrasive style cutoff blades. Specially formulated diamond segments cut ductile pipe faster and cleaner. Electroplated silicone carbide grit on the face of the blade dresses the pipe as you cut, eliminating sharp edges and burrs. Lasts as long as up to 60 abrasive blades saving both time (less blade changes) and money. Designed to be used on gas or electric hand held cutoff saws, as well as stationary electric chop saws.
