TAHOE Turbo Blade – 5 in., Turbo Rim
TAHOE Turbo Blade – 5 in., Turbo Rim
The TAHOE Turbo Blade is a 5 in. turbo-rim diamond blade for general-purpose stone cutting on a hand grinder.
A turbo rim is a continuous rim with a serrated profile: it clears swarf faster than a plain continuous rim and chips less than a segmented blade, which is why it is the default choice for cutting and trimming on a grinder. The house listing describes this line as a granite and quartz blade; treat that as the published application rather than a hard limit, since a turbo rim is a general stone rim. Arbor size, maximum RPM and whether it is intended for wet or dry cutting are not published for this blade – check the arbor and the speed rating on the blade against your grinder before mounting it.

Who Is This For?
Fabricators and installers making cutouts, trims and rough cuts in granite and quartz with a hand grinder. It is not the blade for Dekton, porcelain or other sintered slabs – a general stone bond does not survive ultra-compact material, and the cut chips – so use the Diamax Cyclone Porcelain Turbo Blade – 5 in., for Ultra-Compact or the Diamax Cyclone Ultra Mesh Turbo Blade – 5 in. for those. For detail and shaping work on soft stone, an electroplated rim such as the MANTIS Electroplated Blade – 5 in. is the better tool.
