Dry cutting

Application tips: 

• Before mounting the saw blade ensure that the machine cannot start (pull out main plug) 

• Rotational direction arrow of the saw blade has to match the spindle rotational direction 

• Not suitable for grinding – grinding can lead to serious injury through segment break outs 

• Saw specification has to be appropriate for the material to be cut 

• Do not tilt the saw blade in the cut 

• Do not carry out any curved cuts 

• Allow cooling down breaks, if saw blade is sparking heavily (use reciprocating cut) 

• Use protective clothing 

• Do not use too high pressure on the saw blade, weight of machine is sufficient 

Pressure to great saw cutting layer overheats 

Pressure to low saw cutting layer blunts, diamond grain polishes 

HDS-Technology “High Density Sintered” 

Patented production process 

Without HDS 

With HDS 

• Dense bond structure – high adhesion to steel core 

• Hardened steel core – no wobbeling with heating up – straight cuts 

• Large application spectrum – for all current construction materials

Secur Extra Top cuts 

the fastest! 

Quartz containing concrete 

with grit size up to 16 mm (B35) 

With double the lifetime! 

Performance comparison: 

Secur Extra Top – the best result compared to 

other manufactures 

(from approx. 200 tested dry cutting saws) 

Test conditions: 

Machine: angle grinder 2600 Watts, Ø 230 mm 

Secur Extra Top 

is the “coolest”! 

Flat steel ST37 

(8 cm x 0,8 cm) 

A high heat arises especially with the cutting of metal. 

The new steel blade shape in connection with new raw 

materials brings a clear reduction of the temperature. 

Conical segments reduce the friction. 

(lower heat development) 

• No more overheated 

cutting layer 

• No more saws which 

do not cut 

• No more complaints

Super thin saws – the noticeable difference: 

TYROLIT sets standards 

The ultimate of the dry cutting saws, the ONLY super thin diamond saw for concrete and building 

materials. 

Standard Super thin 

Maximum easy cutting ability with higher lifetime have made 

customers enthusiastic all over the world. 

Compromises are not tolerated: 

Stability, safety, universal application are absolutely necessary. 

Especially with thin saws, these characteristics are of decisive 

importance. The reduction of the layer width as well as the steel 

blade causes higher loading of the saw. 

The development of these saws was only possible through the 

special HDS-process. 

The result of the development work are saws with 1,2 mm width 

for Ø 115 and 125 mm, and 1,9 mm for Ø 180 and 230 mm. 

2,2 mm 

2,6 mm 

1,2 mm

Product advantages: 

• Conical segments 

• Very short cutting-off times 

• Reduced machine load 

• Cutting-off without exertion 

• Cleaner cutting edges 

• Less material loss 

• Absolutely quiet running 

• Reduced dust development

Noise reduced saws – The audible difference 

Noise is a subjective term for sound which is experienced as disturbing. Consequently 

noise is not a measurable, defined dimension, but as the noise of perceived sounds. The ear sense has no 

natural protection mechanism which prevents the noise having an effect on the ear. While for example eye 

pupils become narrower with strong incidence of light, the ear is permanently “switched on to receive”. 

As a result, noise is sound which disturbs, irritates, damages health, and can increase the accident danger. 

Noise reduced saws from TYROLIT reduce this noise pollution by up to 55 % and as a result make 

a considerable more pleasant working possible without loss of performance. 

This noise reduction is only possible through the sandwich steel blade developed by TYROLIT. 

A core with laser slots (Detenso) achieves a noise reduction of approx. 30%.

EA+C – 2 in 1 

Up until now, it was impossible to machine two so different materials such as asphalt 

and concrete with only one tool, without noticeable loss of cutting characteristics. 

TYROLIT has the solution … 

SECUR EXTRA for asphalt and concrete (EA+C) allows the machining of these completely different 

materials with only one tool, while at the same convincing with easy cutting ability and lifetime.

LONG LIFE – The lifelong difference 

Long life demands the highest quality of raw materials. 

The use of perfectly shaped diamonds and new bond materials enables highest lifetime values. 

New steel qualities of the steel blade guarantee maximum safety and stability up to the using up of the 

segments. 


• Reduction of set-up times 

• Lowering of tool costs 

• New bond system prevent premature diamond grain break out (“pull out”) 

• Laser welded segments

Remedying problems: 

Dry cutting blade loses cutting ability: 

Causes: 

• Specification not suitable for the cutting-off of the material involved 

• Saw blade running counter to the prescribed rotational direction 

• Cutting depth too great or application in deep cutting without reciprocal movement 

• No cooling down phases allowed by excessive sparking of the saw 

• Cutting pressure too high or too low 

• Machine drive power too low 

• Cutting-off materials such as steel, wood, aluminium 

Characteristics: 

• Cutting layer (segment) or steel blade shows blue discolouration 

• Diamond grain protrusion very low (finger nail test) 

• Bond thermally deformed (mushroom formation) or broken out 

Solution: 

• Select suitable application conditions and suitable saw type for application 

• Sharpen cutting layer before further use through cuts in a sharpening plate or in abrasive material such 

as for example sandstone 

Dry cutting saw blade gets cracks: 

Causes: 

• Saw blade used for lateral grinding (not allowed!!) 

• Application in curve cutting 

• Saw blade jamming in the cut 

• Extremely high cutting pressure 

• Saw blade not designed for the application in hand 


• (Hairline) cracks going out from the slot base 

Solution: 

• Select suitable application conditions and suitable saw type for application 

• On no account can a saw blade with cracks be used further 

33

Dry cutting saw blade – breaking off of layer parts: 

“Undercutting” 

Segment 

Causes: 

• Application in curve cut 

• Saw blade jamming in the cut 

• Cutting in “loose” or very abrasive material 

Wear 

Steel core 


• Layer parts missing and hairline cracks in the segment 

• Undercutting effect in transition area, segment / steel blade 

Solution: 

• On no account use the saw blade further! 

• Use of protective segments with abrasive materials to 

avoid the undercutting effect
