FAQs

When do I need a cermaic tile saw?

A ceramic-tile saw is necessary to make certain cuts in tile, granite, marble and other stone products. Most ceramic tile saws have diamond blades. These saws cut ceramic-tile very easily because the saw blade is cooled by water. The cuts are dust-free, and very smooth.

What type of bits do I use to drill in ceramic tile?

Drilling ceramic tile requires a special drill bit and a steady hand. A carbide drill bit or a diamond drill bit are best for drilling holes in ceramic tile. The proper drill speed will prevent a disaster. 

Why is the RPM of a tile saw important?

The operating speed of a diamond blade affects cutting speed (productivity) and blade life (costs). The optimum speed, which delivers the most cost-efficient combination of cutting speed and blade life, is approximately 9,500 surface feet per minute (SFPM). Each blade diameter has a corresponding RPM that delivers optimum SFPM.

What do I need to know about diamond blades?

Soft blades cut hard materials, and hard blades cut soft materials. As a general rule, you need a blade with a softer matrix to cut hard, less abrasive materials such as cured concrete, brick, tile or stone. Conversely, you need a blade with a harder matrix to resist the excessive abrasion of softer materials such as green concrete, asphalt or block.
