Size: 4\". Recommended For: 1\/8\" Rod. Thickness: 4.2mm. Max RPM: 14,500. Arbor(s): 7\/8\", 20mm. Alpha® developed a revolutionary way to improve the efficiency of fabricators. For years, slab fabricators have employed labor-intensive procedures for creating channels in the underside of countertops to accommodate stainless steel reinforcing rods at sink and cooktop cutouts. Alpha® recognized the opportunity for improvement and developed the Alpha® Hot-Rod. With this blade attached to the Alpha® AWS-110 or AWS-125 Wet Stone Cutter, a fabricator can accomplish the task in one easy pass.The Hot-Rod for Granite blades were created with diamond grits and matrix best suited for all categories of granite, including hard red granites, to assure a long cutting life. With a 3” diameter, the blade allows for easy use and better leverage when cutting 1\/4” deep channels, by allowing for better positioning of the stone cutter’s handle. This blade is now available in three thicknesses: 1\/4” for standard rods, 1\/8” for thinner rods and 3\/8” for threaded rods. The Hot-Rod for Marble applies the same technology but is designed for softer stones such as marble. This blade is available in 1\/4” for standard and 1\/8” for thinner rods.For efficient creation of channels for reinforcing rods, attach this unique blade to our AWS-110 or AWS-125 for a smooth, dust-free operation. Used in this manner, productivity will increase significantly. Although Alpha® recommends wet cutting, these blades may be used wet or dry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52170139500764,"sku":"ALP HT04A-PLUS","price":102.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0841\/5713\/7116\/files\/30d91bcd-be93-47c7-8b6d-c825c6fb9232.jpg?v=1786056399","url":"https:\/\/obsidian-industrial.com\/products\/blade-rodding-hot-rod-4x1-8-granite","provider":"Obsidian Industrial","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
