[Andy Allen]

need to uprate me blade on my rubi nd 200 as the one it comes with is pants.....

any recommendations..

cheers.

Marcrist, Rubi CPC or Montolit, all good as far as i can personally say......Dewalt is a cracking wheel too.

I have a montolit dna blade on my ND200, only used for the first time today..cuts fine but can be pricey

 

[Andy Allen]

think i will go with the marcrist ck850......eats porcelain for breakfast, according to tile trader..

montolit dna for me andy, superb wheel!!

 

[Andy Allen]

you think its worth spending the extra doug? about £35 more than the marcrist i think.....only had a quick look at them.

 

[doug boardley]

I do andy, I've always used the rubi cpc's before,,, no going back to them now tho' after getting a monty dna blade

The DNA blade is awesome , truly out performs any other I have had in tile saws

i have used the marcrist ck850 for a couple of years now, in a grinder & my small plasplugs wet. got one in my big dewalt too, its a great blade. wouldnt mind trying the monti dna its some price though????

Porcelain is a vitrified material and Glass is fully vitrified.. i have cut glass with the DNA and no shelling...

The DNA is designed for hard materials and cuts them very efficiently IMO.. and just to add.. curs soft stones etc just as good.

thanks for that dave, I have some round glass mosiacs to cut to fit a square apeture, they have the coloured backing to a clear glass and wondered how well it cuts this type of glass.

I can get them water jet cut for less than the cost of a dna blade but want to try a new blade as not that impressed with the ck850 (have had 3 of differing sizes on the dewalt)

Sometimes though Rob it is the backing that chips...no matter what blade you use..

Get the montolit dna blade as dave says , i took his advice last year after needing a new blade for my Rodia bridge and its well worth the extra , it cuts much faster and leaves a superb finish ..
