Abracs Pro Diamond Blade Turbo Segment

The Abracs Pro Diamond Blade Turbo Segment is a high‑performance
professional diamond cutting disc designed for fast, clean cutting in
concrete, brick, block, pavers and general masonry. Featuring a turbo‑segmented rim
for aggressive cutting with improved edge quality, this blade is ideal for use on
angle grinders and disc cutters by builders, groundworkers, landscapers and civil contractors.

The Abracs Pro Diamond Blade Turbo Segment features a robust, laser‑welded or sintered steel core
(depending on variant) with turbo‑style diamond segments. The fluted / serrated segment edges help:

• Increase cutting aggression for faster progress,
• Improve cooling and debris removal, and
• Deliver a cleaner cut edge versus many standard segmented blades.

Suitable for use on a wide range of construction masonry materials, including:

• Concrete (cured, non‑reinforced or lightly reinforced),
• Bricks – clay and concrete,
• Concrete blocks and aerated blocks (depending on density),
• Paving slabs and flags,
• Roof tiles and general masonry products.

Commonly fitted to angle grinders, petrol cut‑off saws and electric disc cutters, Abracs Pro
Turbo Segment blades are designed to meet the expectations of trade users who need a balance of
speed, life and cut quality for day‑to‑day site work.

Typical Use Cases

• Construction & groundworks – cutting concrete slabs, blocks, lintels and padstones.
• Bricklaying & masonry – trimming bricks, blocks and masonry units to size on site.
• Landscaping & paving – cutting paving slabs, flags, edging stones and decorative blocks.
• Roofing work – sizing and shaping concrete / clay roof tiles and masonry trims.
• General refurbishment – openings and chases in masonry walls, steps and hard landscaping.

Compatibility & Application Tips

• Tool compatibility:
  • Match the blade diameter and bore size (e.g. 22.23 mm for most angle grinders, 20 mm/25.4 mm for some disc cutters)
    to your machine’s specifications.
  • Ensure the maximum RPM rating printed on the blade is equal to or greater than your tool’s no‑load speed.
  • Suitable for angle grinders, petrol cut‑off saws and masonry saws within the rated speed / diameter range.
• Direction & mounting:
  • Fit the blade with the direction arrow (on the label or steel core) matching the
    direction of rotation of your machine.
  • Use the correct flanges and clamping nuts; ensure the blade is seated flat and centred
    on the spindle before tightening.
• Cutting technique:
  • Allow the tool to reach full speed before engaging the material.
  • Use a steady, controlled feed; do not force the blade – let the diamond segments do the work.
  • For deep cuts, make multiple passes rather than trying to cut full depth in one go.
  • Occasionally lift the blade out of the cut on long cuts to aid cooling and debris removal.
• Wet vs. dry cutting:
  • Many Abracs Pro Turbo blades are rated for dry cutting, but light water cooling (where the machine allows)
    can extend blade life and reduce dust.
  • Never use water with electric angle grinders unless specifically designed for wet use.
• Safety:
  • Always wear appropriate PPE: safety goggles/face shield, ear protection, dust mask/respirator and gloves.
  • Use dust suppression (wet cutting or extraction) where practical and required by regulations.
  • Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped or supported to avoid movement during cutting.

Frequently Asked Questions – Abracs Pro Diamond Blade Turbo Segment

1. What materials can I cut with this blade?

Abracs Pro Diamond Blade Turbo Segment is primarily designed for:

• Concrete (cured),
• Clay and concrete bricks,
• Concrete blocks and pavers,
• Roof tiles,
• General masonry products.

For very hard or specialist materials (e.g. granite, engineering bricks, thick reinforced concrete),
refer to Abracs’ specific blade recommendations.

2. Can I use this blade to cut reinforced concrete?

It can cut lightly reinforced concrete, but frequent or heavy contact with rebar will:

• Accelerate segment wear, and
• Increase the risk of segment damage or loss if misused.

For frequent rebar cutting and heavy reinforced sections, use a specialist reinforced concrete or universal
construction diamond blade recommended by Abracs.

3. Is this blade suitable for both wet and dry cutting?

Most Abracs Pro Turbo Segment blades are dry‑cut capable and can also be used with
intermittent wetting on suitable machines to reduce dust and increase life. However:

• Never use water with tools not designed for wet cutting (e.g. many electric angle grinders).
• Always check the icons and instructions on the blade label for wet/dry suitability.

4. How do I know what size blade I need?

Match the blade size to:

• Your tool’s maximum blade diameter (e.g. 115mm, 125mm, 230mm), and
• The required cutting depth for your material.

Refer to your tool manual for maximum allowable diameter and ensure the bore size matches
your spindle or flanges.

5. How can I maximise the life of the Abracs Pro Turbo blade?

To get the best life:

• Use the blade only on recommended materials,
• Do not force the cut – steady pressure is best,
• Allow the blade to cool between long cuts,
• Use dust control or light water cooling where appropriate,
• Avoid twisting, side‑loading or jamming the blade in the cut.

6. Common Uses & How to Use Abracs Pro Diamond Blade Turbo Segment

Common Uses:

• Cutting concrete flags and patio slabs to size.
• Trimming brick and block for masonry work.
• Cutting door thresholds, steps and edges in concrete.
• Preparing openings and chases in masonry walls.

How to Use – Step‑by‑Step:

1. Select the correct blade diameter and bore for your machine and material.
2. Isolate the power and fit the blade, ensuring the direction arrow matches the tool’s rotation.
3. Tighten flanges securely and check the blade spins true (no wobble) when run up to speed.
4. Secure or support the workpiece; mark your cut line clearly.
5. Start the tool, allow it to reach full speed, then ease the blade into the cut along the line.
6. Maintain a steady feed rate, letting the diamond segments cut without forcing.
7. On long or deep cuts, withdraw the blade periodically to help with cooling and debris removal.
8. After cutting, allow the blade to stop completely before setting the tool down.
