Q: What’s the difference between an asphalt blade and a concrete blade?
A: An asphalt blade has a much higher diamond concentration to protect the matrix from prematurely wearing away due to extreme abrasion. In addition, an asphalt blades bond is much harder.
Q: Can I use an asphalt blade to cut concrete?
A: No, asphalt blades have a much harder bond and higher concentration of diamond.
Q: Can I use a concrete blade to cut asphalt?
A: Yes, but the abrasion will make your blade wear out extremely fast.
Q: What blade thickness do I need?
A: That depends on how much horsepower you’re running.
M: 42 hp and under use .135
M: 44 hp and up use .155-187
Q: What spec. good for my job?
A: Each job depends on what type of aggregate you’re cutting. See the aggregate map below.
