SMART CUT® SERIES 301M
SMART CUT® SERIES 301M lapidary blades have undergone significant enhancements to elevate their performance and durability. Engineered with an increased diamond concentration and a reinforced steel core enriched with higher carbon content, these blades exhibit improved tension memory. This structural enhancement ensures that the blades maintain their integrity and alignment during rigorous cutting operations, thereby extending their lifespan and reliability.
The incorporation of a solid diamond sintered kerf in the design not only enhances the cutting capability but also optimizes coolant flow across the blade. This feature is pivotal in maintaining the blade’s temperature, reducing wear, and facilitating smoother cuts. The enhanced design ensures superior performance, particularly when cutting challenging materials such as agate, petrified wood, or jade, where precision and smoothness are critical.
