Product Information

Full details

The Dart AS-10 Asphalt Diamond Blade is designed for professionals and contractors who require a high-performance solution for cutting through abrasive asphalt surfaces. Its primary benefit is the combination of a 10mm segment height and U-shaped gullets, which allow for exceptionally rapid cutting and efficient material removal; however, users should note that this blade is purpose-built for asphalt and may experience accelerated wear if used on harder materials like concrete or reinforced stone.

FAQs

Can I use this blade on concrete?

This blade is specifically engineered for asphalt. While it may cut concrete, it will wear out very quickly and provide suboptimal performance.

What is the bore size of this blade?

The Dart AS-10 has a 20mm bore size.

Does this blade require water for cutting?

The AS-10 is designed for dry cutting, but can also be used wet depending on the capabilities of your equipment.

What does the U-shaped gullet do?

The U-shaped gullet helps improve airflow to cool the blade and creates space for debris (swarf) to escape the cut.

Is the blade laser-welded?

Yes, the segments are laser-welded for improved safety and durability.

Troubleshooting

Blade is cutting slowly or glazing over

The blade may be 'glazed'. Make several shallow cuts into a very abrasive material like sandstone or a sharpening stone to expose new diamond edges.

Excessive vibration during use

Check the machine arbor for debris or wear, and ensure the blade is tightened securely to the spindle. Verify that the blade is not bent.

Segments wearing out prematurely

Reduce feed pressure and check that you are using the blade only on asphalt surfaces rather than harder materials.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-speed cutting performance on asphalt surfaces
  • Excellent heat dissipation due to advanced gullet geometry
  • Laser-welded segments offer enhanced operator safety
  • Durable construction reduces the frequency of blade changes

Cons

  • Not intended for hard concrete or reinforced masonry
  • Requires specific 20mm arbor compatibility
  • Performance decreases significantly when used on non-asphalt materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper operation, verify that your power cutter or floor saw supports a 300mm diameter blade with a 20mm bore size. Before installation, inspect the blade for any signs of hairline cracks or damaged segments. Ensure the blade is mounted in the correct rotational direction as indicated by the arrows printed on the steel core. When not in use, store the blade in a dry, temperate area to prevent rust. Periodic inspection of the segments is recommended; if the segments become glazed or lose their cutting ability, it is usually a sign that they need to be 'opened' by cutting into a highly abrasive material like sandstone.
