Description

Ductile Iron Safety Blades

Desert Diamond Industries is proud to present the Safety Blade - the safest, most earth-friendly and longest-lasting diamond cutting/grinding blade ever made.

The 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've 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 chances of potentially fatal shattering and segment loss.

Hands down the most cost-effective and safest diamond blade ever manufactured!

How many handheld saw blades do you know of 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, but not the solid steel Safety Blade. It bends, but doesn't break!

With over 20 years of experience in the diamond blade industry, we want to provide only the best products and services available. This is why we offer the only Life Time Operator Error Warranty in the industry... because if your blade breaks, you should not be left holding the bag.
