Evolution Power Tools Diamond Blade, 185 mm, Black

Needed to cut 40 foot of 1.5 inch thick paving slab. Did the job well with lots of life still left in the blade.

Good quality and does the job just a bit pricey

This is a pretty good diamond blade. I have used this dry for cutting ceramic tiles on an Evolution R255SMS-DB+ 255mm. It performs well although there is minor chipping around the cut evident. To be fair becuase this needs to be used dry that is no really surprise and to get a better cut you'd need to use a wet wheel cutter.

If you are after a multi material demolition blade to cut through most materials with little fuss this thebkade for you. It cuts through concrete like butter and even porcelain slabs (but due to the nature of the bkade it will chip these). Easy to install, lasted ages cutting dozens of concrete gravel boards. Expensive but worth the cost for the performance.

Hi people. Update Oops i made a Boo Boo as i thought i was doing a review for the blade that fits my circular saw as i bought the diamond blade for my Mitre saw also i dont suppose it makes a difference lol So please think of this as a review for the Evolution Circular Saw but im sure it would be same for the Compound Mitre saw also. I bought this diamond blade for my Evolution Circular S Evolution 041-0002A Rage-B Multipurpose Circular Saw, 185 mm, 230 V aw as i needed to cut some marble tile slabs for my new wetroom bathroom. There is not much you can say about a cutting disc really yet this one worked perfectly. I made fast cuts without much pressure and left smooth edges and the blade doesn't look worn after cutting so much marble so i would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs to cut any stone or marble products as it is definitely up for the task and will do as it is intended for without any problems. Hope this review helps. Cheers JJ

Did my job

Seems like a decent blade for the money. Used it with my Evolution circular saw to cut and shape some hard brick-weaving bricks for our garden and driveway. Obviously made a right mess, but that's to be expected. Cut through the bricks fairly easily and cleanly. The Evolution saws are geared down for lower RPMs and higher torque than other circular saws, with all metal drive gears, which probably makes them handle this kind of cutting a little better than other budget saws aimed mostly at wood cutting. The blade looks like it still has plenty of life left in it. The only issue I could see is that all the painted on markings on the blade were worn off almost instantly in first use, including the rotational direction marker, so make sure to note down or remember how the blade is supposed to be fitted before using.

Cuts easily garden interleaving bricks (on top on the picture) but dulled and started to throw sparks (bad sign) after only 3 hard refractory bricks (the bottom one the picture). I guess I'll have to rent a wet saw

Excellent produit... 50mcarre de terrasse et tjrs en état de marche.

Be careful to watch the bore size. Picture is of 22.2 mm arbor hole. Specs show 25.4 which is what was delivered to me (too big for the Evolution 12 inch disc cutter which only has friction plates for 20mm and 22.2mm). Interestingly even the disc supplied with my cutter has the larger bore and can't be used on the machine. Amazon/Evolution - any comments or, better yet, correction in the works? Appears to be made well, but I can't use it to tell for sure. Update: Evolution Tools came through and shipped the correct 25 mm flange to me overnight. Now that I've used the saw I'm very impressed. Great for small jobs (that's all I need) and the blade easily cut straight as an arrow. Now my 3 stars are 5. Thanks Mike at Evolution Power Tools for your help.

It works well, but get's dull quickly. During the sawing process the blade will start to wobble a bit, because of the temperature increasing. after cooling off it will be more or less straight again. And after a few bricks it is definitely not sawing as well as in the beginning.

Excellent it is a good one to have as it is cut concrete, stone and marble
