The compact 4" rodding blade for tight spaces and smaller grinders. The Weha Matrix 4" x 1/4" Turbo Rodding Blade is a diamond blade engineered to cut the reinforcement channel for 1/8" fiberglass and metal rods in granite, marble, engineered stone, quartz, quartzite, and concrete countertops. Same dual-blade construction as the 5" Turbo Rodding Blade — in a 4" format for use with smaller angle grinders or in tighter working conditions. How It Works The Matrix Rodding Blade is constructed from two Weha EB blades separated by a 1/8" metal spacer, all welded together as a single unit. As the blade cuts, the stone between the two blades is expelled through cooling holes, leaving a clean, square 1/4" groove ready for rod installation — no secondary cleanup pass required.
