Anyone recommend a wheel

[tobins tiling]

Hello everyone I'm on the verge buying another new wet cutter wheel for my rubi nd 180 I usually use the marcrist wheels but they do tend to chip the tiles which is obviously not good when going round windows. I bought 2 of these last year which isn't bad I suppose as they have seen a lot of act. Can anyone recommend a better one than these for how much and were from thanks for your help

Montolit DNA. The dogs mate. Think trade tiler do them, they aren't cheap but they wouldn't be because they are fine blades

As above, Tradetiler Montolit diamond wheels

How much do they go for mate?

For yours would be £130 from Tradetiler..

Sorry being a bit lazy there, just checked them out on trade tiler £130 inc vat how long do they last for around because as I said I bought 2 marcrist blades last year a around £60 ish so it could work out around the same?

Depends eh on what tiles you get to cut over the course of the next year. I'd say they go pretty far though. I use one of the blade sharpening rubbing block thingamajiggy's though which helps. I think that's the technical name anyway.

I suppose depending what your cutting, could'nt say but mine still has plenty of cutting blade on it.

Yer suppose it was a bit of a silly question but I only normally cut travertine, porcelain and granite or the odd marble job

I had the marcrist and like you it was chipping the porcs, find better results with montolit dna.

I have had my DNA blade in for 2 years and it has seen megga use.

It still has around 8 mm of meat left on it, these DNA wheels are serious kit.
