It probably depends on how often you use it...:smilewinkgrin:
What size? And carbide only or titanium coating?
By the way: does anyone know why Sigma don't make titanium coating wheels for Max series?
O c'mon mate, wait a while, this is just their second generation of that kind.

Because they last long enough as they are. We do them for the 12/14mm wheels.
Doesn't have any of our features on the cutter. There is only one Sigma.
Yes they do last a long time. titanium ones are meant to last even longer. The 19mm max wheel is different though as it's set around bearings. What's the average life span of your wheel Pit-R.
Ok, my last chance.
I know the difference in construction of the wheels, and know what titanium coating is used for. Just don't know why Sigma offer such a choice between non-coated (long lasting) and coated (even longer lasting) wheels to people using 12 and 16 mm wheels, and don't do it to those using 19 mm top Max series ones.
It depends of course, but seems to me that it's longer than half a year. But I don't use sigmas. So asked about it wanting to have some comparison.
I've now got 3 Sigmas & to be honest I couldn't care less if the wheels are coated in space dust as they are the best cutters I have used.. [emoji6]
Thanks Dave, in that case it's even better.

I think Rubi eventually realised they loose clients for Sigma and started with Ti series some time ago to stop that.Mmmmmm close

Ok, so I'll change my question: why do you make 12/14 mmm wheels with titanium coating as well? Don't the carbide ones last long enough as they are?

Yes, for sure, Sigma is one and only. But as everyone can notice these new Rubi cutters look quite similar to Sigma or Montolit ones. So maybe Rubi think it's enough for long time Rubi users to keep them sticking with their brand.

But it's realy simple: you should choose before buying, shouldn't you? So if they say that Max series is the best and coated wheels are better than non-coated, why can't I get them?
