Description
Desert Diamond Industries is proud to present the safest, longest-lasting and most cost-effective diamond blades ever made - Ductile Iron Safety Blades.
The Ductile Iron Safety Blade cuts ductile iron, cast iron, gray iron, angle iron, black iron, concrete, asphalt, stone, brick, block and almost anything else you can put in front of it. That's because we poured years of research and development into its innovative solid steel design (up to 14" diameter) and vacuum-brazed diamond technology, so that it can cut almost anything while eliminating potentially fatal shattering and segment loss.
The Ductile Iron Safety Blade is covered by our signature Life Time Operator Error Warranty, so you can cut almost anything without worrying about your blade warping, wobbling or cracking from normal use.
How many handheld saw blades can cut through a 160-pound cast iron manhole cover? The Safety Blade can.
Most blades will lose segments if you hit them with a hammer. Not the solid steel Safety Blade. It bends, but doesn't break!
Ductile Iron Safety Blade Field Test
Desert Diamond Industries tested the Ductile Iron Safety Blade against our competitors' blades to document its longevity and performance under extreme conditions.
- Goal: Run each blade non-stop until it completely burned up
- Where: Our facility in Las Vegas, NV
- Test Material: 4-inch cast iron mains using a 3,900 RPM table/chop saw, cutting with a dry blade
- Expectations: 1,100 cuts with the Ductile Iron Safety Blade
