Why you need yo use different diamond cup wheels for different grinding purpose?

Nowadays, To grind granite, marble, brick blocks, concrete, etc, diamond cup wheels is best tool for this purpose and it is widely used.

The segments of cup wheels can be arranged in two ways, such as, single row cup wheel and double row cup wheel. The purpose of beveling, smoothing and shaping can be fulfilled by using diamond cup wheels. To cover large surface area and for faster grinding, Segments of some cup wheels are designed into swirl


patterns, such as our segmented turbo cup wheel. There are several types of arrangement patterns for segments, such as, floor grinding disc head, dotted star cup wheel, bow segment cup wheel, etc. They are for their respective grinding uses.

The working efficiency of a diamond cup wheel is greatly influenced by the segment number and its price. More surface area can be covered by more number of segments but it will lead to a higher price for the cup wheel. For larger jobs, to be a more economical approach, you can choose fewer segments or to increase working efficiency, you can reduce the labour expenses and can adopt more number of segments. This choice is based on your tradeoff.

The another important consideration is diamond grit of a segment . Before you do the final polishing with diamond polishing pads, for a progressive scratch removal, you should use Coarse, medium and fine grits. According to your choice we do have vast range of diamond cup wheel products. At very low prices you can have high quality silver brazed grits. you are most welcome to contact us if you have any query related to prices and/or any other questions.

Important tips for Buying Diamond Blade

Before purchasing any type of diamond blade, you must decide which factor is more important for you: the initial cost or the cost per cut. If you are using it for low scale jobs, an inexpensive blade is what you may need. But for medium or large scale jobs, a higher priced blade is what you desired because it gives you more value as its cost per cut is lower in comparison to others. Also, two things you have to keep in mind are the horse power and type of saw you are using because these things can enhance the blade’s performance.


Most important thing in choosing a diamond blade or diamond saw blade is exactly identifying the material or surface to be cut, because there is an inter-relation between the life and cutting speed of the blade and the material which needs to be cut. Also one thing you must remember is that dry blades can be used either dry or wet, but wet blades must be used with water.

Above discussed factors can be summarized as follows:
  • Price of Blade.
  • Type of material that needs to be cut.
  • Type of cutting: wet or dry.
  • Matching saw and horsepower of blade being used.
  • Type of blade used: segmented, serrated or continuous.

Basics and Working of Diamond Blade

Nowadays you may have heard about man-made diamonds or diamonds that are getting made in laboratories. But have you ever thought for what they are being used for? DO not even thing that they are used in jewelry. They are now used to manufacture diamond blades.

It is a continuous or segmented rim of a blade. The “Core” of a blade is the steel disc the segments are attached to. The space between the segments that cause a water flow to cool the blade are known as “slots” or “gullets”. In segments, a metal powder + diamond grit mixture is pressed to form a solid metal. Soft blades cut hard materials, and hard blades cut soft materials. As a general rule, you need a blade with a softer matrix to cut hard, less abrasive materials such as cured concrete, brick, tile or stone. Conversely, you need a blade with a harder matrix to resist the excessive abrasion of softer materials such as green concrete, asphalt or block.

Diamond Blades provide cutting through mutual erosion of the material (concrete, etc.) and the segment or rim of the diamond blade. Diamond crystals are embedded throughout the rim present in blades which is suspended in a metal matrix. As the crystals either fall out of the rim or getting crushed, the matrix wears down at an optimal rate to expose new diamonds to continue efficient cutting. If the matrix fails to wear down fast enough, the rim will glaze over and cutting will become much more difficult and slow. If the matrix wears down too quickly, crystals will be lost before their usefulness has expired. The blade may appear to cut very fast, but the life of the blade will be greatly shortened.

Tips for buying jewelry making tools



Jewelry making is a good way to express your creative thinking and also you can make beautiful pieces to enrich your style. In order to create your masterpieces, you will need some useful tools that help in giving shape to the wire and transform it in an earring, a bracelet, a pendant or anything else you have in your mind. But one thing you must remember that jewelry making can be a costly affair as its equipments are very costly. So I strongly recommend buying equipment only as you need it because in the process of jewelry making you may need a large variety of equipments, so if you are interested in making earring then it’s obvious you don’t want to buy instrument which is used for making pendants or bracelet.

Before you go to the shops and buy a bundle of jewelry making tools, you have to know about the basic tools that are needed and how to use them. Each tool reserves a different use and it is used with different materials. This question will prevent you from excess money spending.

Frustration is the number one product of faulty low quality tools. I found this out when I tried to learn watercolor painting using cheap brushes, paper and paint. Now I love watercolor painting. The same is true for jewelry making. If you can afford good quality tools, then do so. Having a few good quality tools is better than having a bench full of low quality tools that are hard to work with.

Along with jewelry making tool another essential element is a good work surface.
