Norton Clipper Ceramic Turbo Diamond Blade - 115mm

This blade is specifically designed for cutting hard ceramic and porcelain tiles. It is also suitable for general wall and floor tiles.

Yes, wet cutting is recommended, especially for extended use on very hard materials. Water helps to cool the blade and reduce dust, prolonging its life and improving cutting quality.

The 1.4mm thickness allows for faster cutting speeds and significantly reduces material wastage, making your work more efficient and economical.

The reinforced flange on the steel center provides extra rigidity, helping to keep the blade running straight and preventing it from flexing, which can protect the tile from damage.

While it's optimized for hard ceramics and porcelain, its premium diamond grade may allow it to cut softer natural stones. However, for dedicated stone cutting, a blade specifically designed for stone might offer better performance and longevity.

This is a standard 115mm (4.5 inch) blade, typically designed to fit tools with a 22.23mm (7/8 inch) arbor, which is common for angle grinders and tile saws. Always check your tool's specifications.

Blade lifespan depends heavily on the material being cut, cutting technique, and whether water cooling is used. For hard materials, expect good performance but also normal wear over time.

The blade may be dull or clogged. Clean the diamond segments of any debris. If dull, continue use on a suitable material to potentially re-expose cutting edges, or consider replacement if significantly worn.

Ensure the blade is mounted correctly and securely. Check that the tool's flanges are clean and the blade is not damaged or warped. Verify the tool's spindle is true.

Ensure the blade is suitable for the specific tile hardness. Reduce cutting speed and ensure the tile is well-supported. Use a support jig if necessary.
