Frequently Asked Questions
Does it need water?
No. Alpha builds the Katana as a dry cutting blade, which is why it is used on site and on handheld tools where a water feed is impractical.
Which materials does Alpha list?
Porcelain, granite, marble, engineered stone and glazed ceramic tile.
What size is this one?
The Katana blade is 5 in. in diameter.
Will it chip a glazed tile face?
Alpha lists glazed ceramic tile among the materials for this blade. As with any dry blade, score from the glazed face and let the blade do the work rather than forcing the cut.
