Best Diamond Blades For Cutting Asphalt

Cutting hard surfaces requires having the right tools. When talking about cutting stone, concrete, brick and asphalt, it is important to consider the types of diamond blades needed to properly manage these materials. So, what are the best diamond blades for cutting asphalt? Cutting asphalt can be tricky because of the nature of the product. Asphalt contains gravel, oil, sand etc. So when a blade is being used to cut asphalt, it had to be formulated the right way or it will burn out quickly, and you will waste a lot of money. Asphalt, which is considered a softer material on the cutting scale, needs a hard bonded blade to cut. Let’s go through the top 3 options we have to cut asphalt with a gas cut off saw.
