Ripping

Ideal for general construction applications, including fast, efficient ripping and crosscutting

This blade cuts rough framing lumber, high quality finish lumber, plywood, OSB, and hardboard siding with the smoothest, fastest and most accurate cut. The thin kerf design requires less cutting power from the user and the saw for better control over the cut. Diablo′s unique design, extra-tough steel plate and proprietary carbide tips deliver longer life — and frames more houses — than other framing blades.

General Purpose

Ideal for cutting oak, pine, plywood, pressure treated lumber and beams.

An excellent choice for table & miter saws, this blade leaves a smooth cut in a variety of applications, reducing the need to change blades between tasks. Use it for rip cuts with a smoother finish than dedicated ripping blades, or make quality crosscuts in solid wood or plywood. Great for both sliding and “chop” style miter saws as well as table saws.

Combination

Ideal for ripping and crosscutting wood & wood composites with the goal of a smooth finish.

The best choice for a table saw when one blade is needed for ripping and crosscutting. Each set of 5 teeth is separated by a large gullet. This large gullet provides the chip removal space required while ripping and the close grouping of teeth within the set provide the smaller bite size required when crosscutting.

Fine Finish

Ideal for trim carpenters, Diablo Fine Finish Blades leave a smooth surface that requires little to no sanding.

Fine Finish blades let trim crews get the most out of sliding or “chop” style miter saws, as well as jobsite or workshop table saws. The special cutting geometry and high tooth count produce extremely smooth cuts while minimizing “grabbing” or blowout. (Blades ending in “S” are also ideal for radial arm saws).

Ultra Fine Finish

Flawless crosscuts in wood with minimal rework. Flawless finish in melamine & veneered plywood.

Ultimate Flawless Finish

Flawless crosscuts in wood with minimal rework. Flawless finish in melamine & veneered plywood.

Ultimate Flawless Finish blades with Axial Shear Face Grind (ASFG) tooth geometry let trim crews get precise splinter free cuts on fine molding requiring no rework. The new ultra thin kerf allows portable job site saws to perform to the level of workshop stationary saws. This new innovation allows these blades to deliver energy efficiency & effortless cutting that users can feel. Diablo's Ultimate Flawless Finish blades are easy to use with less material waste.
(Stock should always be clamped when using on a slide miter saw)

Non-Ferrous Metals/Plastics

Ideal for on-the-job cutting of nonferrous metal such as copper pipe, aluminum extrusions, brass plate, and Plastics.

These thin kerf blades have a Triple Chip Grind (TCG) Tooth Design for long life and a clean, burr-free finish. Diablo’s unique anti-vibration design and precision-tensioned steel plate provide critical protection against vibration, allowing these blades to cut smoother and quieter.

Melamine/Laminate/Laminate Flooring Blades

Ideal for Melamine/Laminate/Laminate Flooring.

The thin kerf, Triple Chip Grind (TCG) Tooth Design is specially designed to cut laminate flooring (Pergo®, Armstrong®, Swiftlock®) and double-sided laminates and melamines cleanly, leaving a smooth finish with no tear out. Laminated materials are highly abrasive, so these blades feature a TiCo™ carbide blend ideally suited to harsh service. Note: laminate flooring should only be cut with a sliding miter saw or table saw (never with a “chop” style saw).

Fiber Cement Blades™

Ideal for all fiber cement products.

Diablo HardieBlade™ is the only approved PCD (PolyCrystalline Diamond) tipped fiber cement blade recommended by James Hardie Building Products. Diablo Fiber Cement Blades generate up to 50% less respirable dust*, while delivering the longest life in all fiber cement materials. Diablo PCD Hardieblades feature a unique, spark-eroded Triple Chip grind for long life – up to 60 times the life in fiber cement of conventional carbide blades Diablo PCD Hardieblades are perfect for full time use in heavy duty applications like cutting multiple pieces of fiber cement board.

* Dust generation does not necessarily correlate directly to exposure risk.
