High-speed diamond blades

The new Contractor Pro high-speed diamond blades from Hilti are designed for up to 50-percent longer life and faster cutting speeds. Available in three versions — general purpose segmented, general purpose turbo and asphalt segmented — the Contractor Pro blades are designed for cutting applications in reinforced concrete, concrete block, clay, brick and other masonry materials. For precise cutting and straighter tracking, the Contractor Pro segmented blades feature a .125-inch thickness with a stronger core, so they can also be used on low-hp walk-behind saws. For added quality and durability when cutting concrete or asphalt, the segments are laser welded for a stronger bond. Standard with a 20-mm arbor and 1-inch knockout, the blades can adapt to larger saws and, though formulated for dry use, they can also be used wet to reduce dust and noise.
