How do you cut reinforced concrete?

If you work in the construction industry, you already know how to cut reinforced concrete. However, demolishing this material is often an unpleasant task. Chisels and hammers are the most commonly used tools for demolishing reinforced concrete, but are they also the fastest and safest? Diamond blades have made this process much easier.

Which tool should I use for cutting reinforced concrete?

The best tool for cutting and demolishing reinforced concrete structures is undoubtedly the diamond blade. Compared to any other technology, diamond blades allow you to achieve a precise and clean cut. Their tool life is also unparalleled.

Remember, however, that not all diamond blades are the same: it is essential to choose the most suitable type to achieve a clean and fast cut.

Choosing the diamond blade

Because to cut reinforced concrete a simple knife is not enough abrasive disc For iron or stainless steel? You'll be surprised to learn that abrasive discs (the very thin black ones, to be precise) aren't suitable for cutting concrete. Diamond discs, on the other hand, thanks to the diamond embedded in the metal matrix, allow you to abrade concrete with great ease. The synthetic diamond layering is precisely what allows the tool to last longer than any other cutting technology.

Diamond blades for cutting reinforced concrete

Diamond blades are the answer to the question: How do you choose a tool for demolishing reinforced concrete?

  • Always check that the diamond blade you find at the dealer is marked for use on reinforced concrete.
  • Buy a soft diamond blade: either one with a low diamond concentration or one with very soft bonds.
  • Make sure the disc is of high quality

We've been manufacturing diamond blades and core bits for reinforced concrete since 1960. From standard tools for angle grinders and power cutters to large diameters for Hilti, Tyrolit, Husqvarna, Pentruder wall saws, etc.

Our diamond blades have been developed and tested to achieve maximum performance on both concrete and rebar.

The quality of the cut also depends on the peripheral speed of the diamond blade , often confused with RPM.
