Anyone recommend a wheel
Hello everyone I'm on the verge buying another new wet cutter wheel for my rubi nd 180 I usually use the marcrist wheels but they do tend to chip the tiles which is obviously not good when going round windows. I bought 2 of these last year which isn't bad I suppose as they have seen a lot of act. Can anyone recommend a better one than these for how much and were from thanks for your help

Re: Anyone recommend a wheel
Sorry being a bit lazy there, just checked them out on trade tiler £130 inc vat how long do they last for around because as I said I bought 2 marcrist blades last year a around £60 ish so it could work out around the same?

Re: Anyone recommend a wheel
Depends eh on what tiles you get to cut over the course of the next year. I'd say they go pretty far though. I use one of the blade sharpening rubbing block thingamajiggy's though which helps. I think that's the technical name anyway.

Re: Anyone recommend a wheel
I suppose depending what your cutting, could'nt say but mine still has plenty of cutting blade on it.

Yer suppose it was a bit of a silly question but I only normally cut travertine, porcelain and granite or the odd marble job

Re: Anyone recommend a wheel
I had the marcrist and like you it was chipping the porcs, find better results with montolit dna.

I have had my DNA blade in for 2 years and it has seen megga use.
It still has around 8 mm of meat left on it, these DNA wheels are serious kit.
