That i don't know.. it is grinder bore.. and 100mm.. but it cuts super super fast it is unbelievable..
 
Oh! and Trade tiler has my feedback and is ordering a load in... so keep an eye out for them ..
 
I just got the nd300 and got rubi's porcelain blade! It eats through high grade porcs like its soft ceramic! so quick! 2 hp motor.....BEAST
 
If I'm cutting a right angle from a tile I'll cut into the corner, then snap..

Did have some chipping of the porcelain at first, don't notice it now but it does cut really well,
 
They cut really well but mine drifts on the cut on my Rubi rail cutter!

Not necessarily the bearing runners.
If it is a 10 inch blade then it is due to the blade edge getting worn round.
I have this problem crop up regular.
When a blade is new it cuts straight as can be with no drift, but after it wears round it will track over 1/16 to 1/8.
I have taken to having a little plastic wisk brush I have cut into short lengths which I clear chips off of the table with and I use it to keep the blade straight as I run it through a tile and that works well.
I just push the plastic against the blade to keep it running true.
Don't like to but also don't like replacing blades too often.
 
That dna blade sounds like a good one from what I have read on it.
Alpha makes some good blades as well.
 
Sorry for digging up an old thread. I have a Raimondi T3 Razor. Best blade I have ever used for porcelain. It is a j slot blade, very thin but the core is thicker. Prevents wandering. Works best if you dress it regularly with their blue dressing stone.
But maybe you guys are a few years ahead of us in blade technology.
