BRUIN Bridge Saw Blade – 16 in. Diameter, 25 mm Segment
BRUIN Bridge Saw Blade – 16 in. Diameter, 25 mm Segment
The BRUIN Bridge Saw Blade is a 16 in. bridge saw blade with 25 mm segments for cutting engineered stone and natural stone slabs on a bridge saw.
It is the middle diameter of a three-blade range that also runs 14 in. and 18 in. Maximum RPM is not published for the 16 in., and it has not been estimated here: the 14 in. is rated at 2,000 RPM and the 18 in. at 1,600 RPM, so the correct figure for this blade sits somewhere between them and must be read off the blade or the manufacturer's page, not assumed. Arbor size is likewise not published. The 14 in. and 18 in. blades in this line are specified wet use only; the 16 in. page could not be read, so confirm the regime for this diameter before running it dry.
Key Features
- 25 mm segment, matching the 14 in. and 18 in. blades in the same line
- 16 in. diameter – the middle of the three sizes offered
- The 14 in. and 18 in. blades in this line are specified wet use only; the wet or dry regime for the 16 in. is not published
- Maximum RPM not published for this diameter; no figure is stated here because interpolating between the 14 in. and 18 in. ratings would be a guess
- Arbor / bore size not published
What's Included
- 1 x 16 in. bridge saw blade
Who Is This For?
Shops running a 16 in. bridge saw on quartz and granite slabs who want a general-purpose blade for engineered and natural stone. For sintered and ultra-compact slabs it is the wrong tool – the published material list covers engineered and natural stone – so use the Italdiamant EvoGres Plus Bridge Saw Blade – 16 in. for Dekton and porcelain, and the Zenesis Quartzite II Bridge Saw Blade – 16 in. where quartzite is the daily material.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this blade be run dry?
The 14 in. and 18 in. blades in this line are specified for wet use only and need water through the cut. The 16 in. product page could not be read, so its wet or dry regime is not confirmed – check it before running this diameter dry.
What speed should I run a 16 in. BRUIN bridge saw blade at?
The maximum RPM for the 16 in. is not published. The 14 in. blade in the same line is rated 2,000 RPM and the 18 in. 1,600 RPM, so run to the figure printed on the blade rather than to a sibling's rating.
What segment size does it use?
25 mm, the same segment size used across the 14 in., 16 in. and 18 in. blades in this line.
Is it the same blade as the 14 in. and 18 in.?
It is the same line and the same 25 mm segment in a different diameter; the speed ratings differ by diameter.
