Zenesis Z-Max Turbo Blade – 6 in., 10 mm Segment, 7/8 in. Arbor, Wet/Dry
Zenesis Z-Max Turbo Blade – 6 in., 10 mm Segment, 7/8 in. Arbor, Wet/Dry
The Zenesis Z-Max Turbo Blade is a 6 in. turbo blade with a 10 mm segment and oversized cooling holes for fast, chip-free wet or dry cutting of granite, engineered stone and quartzite on an angle grinder or circular saw.
Zenesis positions the Z-Max as the top of its small-diameter stone range: the cooling holes are sized to keep the core from overheating even in 3 cm quartzite, and the 10 mm segment gives more life than the 8 mm Z-Turbo. Four flush-cut holes accept a quad adaptor. If the work is mostly granite and quartz and blade cost matters more than life, the Zenesis Z-Turbo Blade – 6 in. is the economy option.

Fabricators cutting dense quartzite and hard granite by hand who have been burning up standard turbo blades, and shops that want one premium 6 in. blade for every stone job.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Z-Max different from the Z-Turbo?
A taller 10 mm segment (versus 8 mm), oversized cooling holes and a bond built for quartzite as well as granite and engineered stone.
Can it cut 3 cm quartzite?
Zenesis states the cooling holes prevent overheating even when cutting through 3 cm quartzite. Depth of cut in one pass depends on your grinder; the 5.3 in. size in this line is the one Zenesis says cuts fully through 3 cm.
Wet or dry?
Both. Zenesis rates the Z-Max for wet or dry use.
Does it fit a flush-cut adaptor?
Yes. Every size has four quad adaptor holes; flanges are sold separately.
Is it suitable for porcelain or marble?
Zenesis's own line page lists granite, engineered stone and quartzite. For porcelain and ultra-compact use a porcelain-specific blade such as the APEXX Eiffel Diamond Blade; for marble use the APEXX V-Slot Electroplated Marble Blade – 6 in., for Marble & Limestone.
