If you want dry bits and want to take advantage of the free offer we're running for the adapter (see this thread for details):-

http://www.tilersforums.com/tiling-tools/64717-dry-diamond-holesaws-vacuum-brazed-m14-2.html

Then send me a message with a list of what you need rather than buy straight off our shop - the free adapter offer is only on this forum so won't appear automatically.

hi all,good write ups for ats on the hole corers has anyone used the grinder blades?
cheers jamie

Resurrecting this thread, we have been busy over the last few months working on a variety of new blades, not just for tiling.

We have three products in pipeline which a couple of members on here are helping us test, rather than a quick "does it cut ok" we're also gauging lifespan of the products.

So over the next few months we'll have the following becoming available at our usual reasonable prices.

Continuous Rim Porcelain blades from 115mm to 250mm diameter.

Turbo Porcelain blade with flange 115mm to 250mm diameter.

Vacuum Brazed grinder blade at 115mm and 125mm diameter only to test. Most of you won't have ever used one of these. It's the same technology used to manufacture our Dry holesaws. They are currently being referred to in house as the "Comedy Blade" as most people laugh at them when they first see them.

They generally stop laughing when they realise these cut anything, and I mean absolutely anything. They are the fundamental basis for blades used by rescue services to cut people out of vehicles/buildings etc. It will even cut bullet proof glass, not that tilers get much call for that - but it's an option!

I'll post on line with details as these roll out over summer.

Sounds good Alan, will they give a clean cut on porcelain too?

Actually the testers are probably in a better position to answer that than me, from their feedback so far - it's actually quite a clean cut, not as clean as a dedicated porcelain blade - but certainly passable. As a multi purpose grinder blade it ticks a lot of boxes.

As Alan says , clean but not as good as a dedicated porcelain blade. Due to the kerf size it also kicks up more dust than a thinner wheel too.

 

[Jeff the tiler]

Alan i have had a couple of the grinder hole cutters which I can certainly recommend.
When are the grinder blades due out would like to give them a go.

It did take us a while (about 4 months judging by the first post on this topic) but we got our act together with regard to tile and porcelain blades.

The following two threads provide more detail:-
