Casaverde 4.5 Inch Diamond Turbo Cutting Blade for Granite and Marble

Used this cutter blade to cut to width on some store-bought granite vanity tops. After measuring the desired cut lines and marking with blue painter tape, I used this blade to cut the excess off (from 1" up to 4" excess). First, score the desired cut line. The painters tape helps see the desired line since much fine dust is created during the cutting. After several passes, cutting into the granite about 1/16" or so each pass, the cut line was fairly well defined. Next, I carefully and slowly cut along and through the front edge profile (being thinner, it is susceptible to cracking/splitting) and the back edge that goes against the wall - any unexpected fracture during the remaining cutting should leave the finished top intact. Then I continued to cut through the material as before, taking off 1/16" to 1/8" each pass until the trim piece separates. This disc has enough grinding material on the side to use the blade's side to remove slight irregularities in the cut edge as well any other imperfections prior to final polishing (if required). If cutting a vanity top to size, I recommend keeping the vanity top in the original box as it will provide the best support during the cutting, and it works well as a support if you need to polish any edge after cutting. If, like me, the vanity top needs to fit between two walls, you can use this blade to back cut the rear corners, and bevel the hidden under edge of the top so it doesn't catch on the walls as much. Just be sure not to bevel cut the bottom of the front edge/profile. I also purchased a grinding cup wheel, which quickly removes a lot of material - this blade works better for removing less material at a time and prepping for polishing. Overall, it is a good cutting and fine grinding disk.

work like charm have face shield and respirator and open areas make a lot of dust

Super durable grinder blade for cutting granite/quartzite. Was buying a slightly thinner, more flimsy blade especially for granite and quartz at a specialty stone supply shop for more than double the cost. This blade easily last 3-4X times longer and gives a clean cut.

I installed about about 100 feet of stone edging around a pea gravel patio. Most of the edge was curved requiring a lot of cuts. I used a Dewalt Angle Grinder to dry cut the stone. One blade worked for the whole project. I was able to cut about 1" deep on all for sides then use a cold chisel to break the stone. The blade worked great. I was pleasantly surprised how easily it cut through the stone.

Used to install granite for a living had a few pieces leftover to remodel a house used this one blade for the entire install for the money was definitely impressed if had Todo over again I'd buy it no questions
