Diamond Sectioning / Wafering Blades Can be used on all popular precision sectioning and cutting saws from PELCO®, Buehler, LECO, Struers, Allied and many others. These competitively priced Smart Cut™ precision diamond wafering blades are designed to provide superior smooth surface quality, low-distortion sectioning and enhanced blade life. The man-made diamond crystals in the Smart Cut™ diamond sectioning blades / wafering blades are oriented in such a way that diamonds are only activated at the exposed layer. As the exposed layer begins to wear out, diamonds in a new layer are activated, keeping up the cutting rate. The advantages are: Faster cutting action – leaves smooth finish Less glazing – requires minimal dressing More universal – compatible with a greater variety of materials All Smart Cut™ diamond blades have a metal bonded diamond height of 4mm and are available in 3, 4, 5 & 6" diameter with the industry standard 1/2" or 5/8" holes. Three grades are offered to fit most applications: LC200MF medium/fine grit – low concentration for hard and tough materials, hard coating, hard ceramics and concrete ( equivalent to Buehler 15LC) HC150MC medium/coarse grit - high concentration for composite materials, PCB, soft metals and bone (equivalent to Buehler 15HC) HC320F fine grit – high concentration for glass fiber and carbon composites, soft ceramics and optical materials (equivalent to Buehler 5LC and 10LC) Cutting Fluids & Dressing Sticks The cutting fluids will assist in cooling the sample and disc during cutting operation. The cutting fluids will also remove cutting debris and reduce friction between cutting blade and sample. Smart Cut Synthetic Water Soluble Cutting Fluid 812-648 The Smart Cut synthetic water soluble cutting fluid can be diluted 1:20 with water for cutting applications. Formulation is non-irritable, bio-resistant, easy to mix with water, and includes corrosion inhibitors. SDS 120KB PDF SO Type Cutting Fluid, Soluble Oil 812-650 The SO type water soluble oil cutting fluid can be diluted 1:40 with water for cutting applications. Anti-corrosive, bio-resistant formulation. Available in 1 quart and 1 gallon container. MSDS 89KB PDF Dressing Stick 812-420, 812-421 The dressing stick is used to expose the cutting diamonds, to improve cutting rate and to reduce heating at the cutting edge. Especially useful when cutting softer material where the cut material tends to "clog up" the cutting edge of the blade. Size is 12.5 x 12.5 x 152mm (0.49" x 0.49" x 5.98").
