Time is money in construction and, at Diatech, we understand that the longer you can cut without interruption can make all the difference between profit and loss on a job.
When Diatech was founded, we had a vision to create a diamond blade company with a difference and the endurance qualities of our diamond blades were, as far as we were concerned, a game changer.
Every job will be slightly different, just due to the varying mature of the materials you will be cutting, so measuring endurance in terms of metres and miles seemed illogical. Instead we chose the humble 7N Standard Concrete Block as our primary unit of measurement and Diatech’s Cut Rating System was born.
Every blade Diatech manufactures is now tested thoroughly against this system to measure how many standard concrete blocks the blade will cut before needing changed. The higher the cut rating, the longer it will last, and the less blade changes you will need to make.
It’s why our professional blades, although more expensive, ultimately deliver better value for money as a result of the reduction in time taken to halt the job in order to swap over blades.
Take, for instance, the CVR10 which has a cut rating of 500 vs the SG15 with a cut rating of 3000.
To do the same job as the SG15, you will need to use 6 CVR10 blades compared to a single SG15, and you’ll save the time of doing 5 blade swap outs over the course of the job. Even for the fastest blade swappers out there, that’s a lot of time where you’re not cutting, and it’s costing you money.
Or our popular F1 Plus multi-material diamond blades, with a cut rating of 3000, works out at approximately 3p per cut based on the price of a 300/20mm blade, compared to the F2 multi-material diamond blade with a cut rating of 500 that works out a more expensive 12p per cut.
So, if you’re looking to improve your bottom line, consider taking your next blade purchase up to a higher cut rated blade and watch your time efficiency and profitability improve exponentially.
