These First-Cut BASIC Early Entry Blades are great for use with Soff Cut or Early Entry Saws. When using them, make sure to follow the optimal cutting time, which is 2 hours after finishing the concrete and before it sets completely. This is called the Control Zone™. The blades are available in different colors for different types of aggregate, so choose the right one for your job. They can be bought individually or with a skid plate. After use, clean the blades to keep them in good condition. If you notice any signs of wear, it might be time to replace the blade. Also, when installing the blade, make sure the 1' arbor with the drive - pin hole and triangle knock out fits properly on your saw.
