The Cat 1000 Expert diamond blade with a 15mm segment height is engineered for cutting tough materials like hard concrete, reinforced concrete, slabs, pavers, and hard stone. Cat® Hard Material blades come in three performance grades: Good (10mm - 600 Pro), Better (12mm - 800 Pro), and Best (15mm - 1000 Pro). Each product has a specifically designed segment shape and geometry that enhances cutting performance in terms of fluidity, smoothness, speed, and blade life. These blades can cut through a wide range of hard materials and easily handle the toughest aggregates. Higher performance ratings mean better speed and longer blade life, thanks to higher diamond quality, concentration, bond formulation, and segment height. Attributes include ultimate diamond quality and bond formulation, excellent cutting speed and life, a fully hardened and heat - treated steel core, vented cooling holes for rapid heat dispersion, 2X laser - welded segments for safety and stability, a unique turbo segment design for aggressive cutting, a unique V Turbo design to clear abrasive fines and reduce friction, and a keyhole gullet design for dust extraction. Applications cover a vast range of materials from heavily steel - reinforced concrete to soft sandstone. Available in the USA, non - oSa accredited.
Using your Cat® 1000 Expert Diamond Blade is straightforward. First, make sure the blade is the right size for your machine and the material you're cutting. Install it securely following your machine's instructions. When cutting, start at a slow speed and gradually increase as the blade bites into the material. This will help prevent the blade from overheating and ensure a smooth cut. Remember to wear safety goggles, gloves, and a dust mask as cutting hard materials can create dust and debris. After each use, clean the blade with a soft brush to remove any debris. Store the blade in a dry place to prevent rust. If you notice the blade is not cutting as effectively as before, it might be time to replace it. Don't force the blade through the material as this can damage both the blade and your machine.
