Hi-Tech Diamond Thin Sintered Diamond Saw Blade
Achieve cleaner cuts, reduce material waste, and enjoy exceptional blade life with the Hi-Tech Diamond Thin Sintered Saw Blade. Manufactured with premium 325/400 diamond grit permanently secured throughout a metal bond rim, these professional-grade blades continuously expose fresh diamonds as they wear. The result is faster cutting, longer service life, and consistently smooth performance compared to traditional notched-rim blades.
The thin kerf design minimizes material loss while producing precise cuts in valuable lapidary materials. These blades are ideal for trimming and cutting quartz, agates, topaz, glass, petrified wood, and other hard gemstone materials. Whether you're shaping rough material for cabbing or preparing slabs for further processing, Hi-Tech Diamond's sintered technology delivers reliable performance cut after cut.
Why Choose a Sintered Diamond Blade?
Unlike plated or notched blades that gradually lose their cutting surface, sintered blades contain diamond grit throughout the depth of the cutting rim. As the blade wears, new diamond particles are continually exposed, extending blade life and maintaining cutting efficiency over time.
Blade Specifications
| Diameter | Core Thickness | Kerf Width |
|---|---|---|
| 4" | .016" | .023" |
| 5" | .012" | .015" |
| 6" | .012" | .020" |
| 8" | .038" | .044" |
| 10" | .031" | .038" |
All blades feature a 5/8" arbor and include a 1/2" bushing for compatibility with a wide variety of lapidary saws.

Important Usage Information
Always operate your blade with a suitable lubricant such as water or cutting oil. Never run the blade dry. Proper lubrication helps maximize blade life, improve cutting performance, and reduce heat buildup. After use, spin-drying the blade can help prevent corrosion and extend service life.
