Dekton and the other ultra-compact sintered surfaces are dense, hard and abrasive at the same time, which is the hardest combination for a diamond blade: hard enough to blunt the grit, abrasive enough to wear the bond. The blade for it is therefore thin, with a shallow 10 mm segment and a bore fixed at 50 mm for the bridge saw spindles these slabs are cut on.
Why the plate is thin
A slab of this material is expensive and the cut is usually a finished edge, so the segment runs 2.2 to 2.6 mm thick on a 3.0 mm shoulder. A narrow kerf saves material on every cut and keeps the load on the spindle down, which matters because the material resists the cut rather than giving way to it.
Available sizes
250 mm (10 in) — 250 x 40 x 2.2 (3.0) x 10 — bore 50 mm — segment height 10 mm
300 mm (12 in) — 300 x 40 x 2.4 (3.0) x 10 — bore 50 mm — segment height 10 mm
350 mm (14 in) — 350 x 40 x 2.4 (3.0) x 10 — bore 50 mm — segment height 10 mm
400 mm (16 in) — 400 x 40 x 2.6 (3.0) x 10 — bore 50 mm — segment height 10 mm
Rows are transcribed from the manufacturer catalogue and keep its printed order: diameter, segment size, thickness, segment height, then bore. Other sizes are produced to order.
Cutting practice
Run wet and keep the feed steady. Stopping mid-cut lets the segment polish against the material, and that is where glazing starts. If the cut stops producing a clean edge, dress the segment before the next slab rather than pushing harder.
Ordering
Send the bridge saw make and model, the slab thickness and the diameter you need. Bore is 50 mm on the sizes listed; other bores are produced to order with the diameter and segment height.
Frequently asked questions
What do I check before ordering?
Three things decide whether the blade fits: the outer diameter against the saw capacity, the bore against the spindle, and the segment height against the material. The bore is printed on the old blade and easy to measure; the pin-hole or drive pattern is where machines of the same brand often differ, so check it before the blade is made.
What does segment height change?
Segment height is the working life of the blade: a taller segment cuts for longer between changes, a shorter one costs less per blade. On hard material a taller segment also keeps the plate further from the cut, which matters once the segment starts to wear.
Wet or dry cutting?
Stone and engineered surfaces are normally cut wet on a bridge saw or a wet hand saw: water keeps the segment cool and controls dust. Concrete is often cut dry where water is impractical, and that needs a segment built for the higher temperature. Tell us which you run and the blade is specified for it.
Can the bore or diameter be changed?
Yes. Diameter, segment height, thickness, segment width and bore are produced to the machine. Send the machine make and model plus the marking on the old blade, and the specification is confirmed against that rather than against the nearest stock size.
