Need a new disc for my rubi dw 250n

[bubblebobble]

Nightmare!!

Ok, my labourer has decided to labour my rubi disc by standing smoking and just waching the disc do its thing with no hands and little water in the tray.
I ask you!
Anyway I need a replacement urgently for tomorrow in stoke on trent; urgently I mean in the morning.
I have looked at the usual DIY stores with no luck; also machinemart.

Anyone able to point me in the correct direction?.....size is 250mm with a 25.4mm bore, for porcelain.

thanks guys

Has the blade knacked..as in diamond rim has collapsed or is it just blunt , by this i mean it won't cut and just burns the tile..?

If so then get a honing block or run a piece of sandstone through the blade to expose more diamonds....sometimes the blade just needs honing..

Toolstation sell them but no store in S O T.

well seems to be plenty of rim left, what I mean the brass like coloured carrier for the diamonds.

It began taking age to do a 600mm tile, so I went to check it out after I had received a tile with a runout of 5 mm.

I used the saw and got the same, thought the blade may have gotten hot, perhaps warped a little.

It didnt look warped though.

suggestions?...the blade is the rubi one BTW

I think it needs honing...deffo try that before spending on a new one...

I don't suppose you're trying to cut porcelain, with a standard ceramic blade are you bb?

I have the standard rubi blade in my dw250n and it cuts porcelain no probs...( with water in)...
