Will the diamond blade cut marble and/or granite?

I know that the diamond cut blade is good for cutting ceramic tile, stone tile, backerboard, and cement.

I personally cut marble window sills. Make sure you have the right blade but it works fine. Dont force the blade though it will cut just take your time.

I did work with porcelain tiles and had not problems in cutting it in to required lengths.I guess should be the same with marble. Granite I have not worked with it yet.

I used this saw for a kitchen backsplash which had ceramic and glass tiles . I used the diamond blade that came with the saw to cut the ceramic only . For all my glass cuts I ordered the 7" QEP Glass Tile Diamond blade which I felt gave me very precise cuts, as my pieces were all 5/8" and the QEP blade was higher quality.

It will cut clean holes thru granite. If your granite isn't a foot thick there are smaller easier tools to handle. If you need to cut less than three inches deep get a lighter cheaper set up.

The drill itself can be used to drive something that will cut the granite, but I do not know if the concrete core bit can be successfully used to cut the stone. I bet the manufacturer of the bit can answer that question.

Beth,The carbide and or diamond particle bits should be able to. Try them out on a piece of scrap material first. Be sure your material is held down so it won't move. Try a gentle touch first.You may want to "GOOGLE" DREMEL bits for cutting stone and hard wood...there maybe more robust bits for that purpose.What do you make?I hope this helps.Tom Lewis 602 214 4617

have never tried it but glass is harder than granite so I see no reason why it would not. diamonds are very hard. just remember--GO SLOW and use plenty of water.

It will but not easily. I purchasing for the same thing and because the tiles were very small I frequently cut my fingers. Wasn't long before I went out and bought a wet tile saw which is what I should have done in the first place. This cutter is best used for solid one-piece tiles.

Sorry, I don't know. I used mine to cut ceramic tiles, slate stone and glass tiles. The only ones it had trouble on were the glass tiles. Otherwise, it cut the ceramic and slate tiles very easily.

No. It will work fine for most things but marble can crack if too much heat is applied.

The diamond blade is used for metals, ceramic tiles and similar materials of similar hardness. I do not know of any more blades for thick steel.

I haven't tried a diamond blade but the grinding wheel it comes with is pretty good at grinding steel.

It would cut it but holding a small stone to cut it would be hazardous to your hands and very messy. You should by a cutter that has a holding fixture. My opinion. I like the saw for tile.

Yes, I use a diamond blade to cut stucco, tile and granite. Ok for little and thin stuff, otherwise use an angle grinder with a diamond blade, or a circular saw with a diamond blade.

I don't know. I used it to cut marble tile a quarter inch thick and it burned out in very little time. They offered to replace it, but I had to pay the shipping, which was over $20. Not happy.

I cannot say for certain as I only cut through cement and the stone aggregate, BUT diamond is harder than steel, so theoretically it should. The question is how long the diamond chips will stay attached to the metal. I have successfully cut through a hardened steel screw (Fastenmaster) with a Sawz-all, equipped with an ordinary metal cutting bit, but let me tell you the blade got so hot it nearly melted just from cutting throun a single, 1/8" diameter screw. I would NOT rely on this to cut through rebar, as you intend. You might be able to cut a hole to expose the rebar and then use an oxy-acetylene torch to cut out the bar so you can continue cutting.

This blade will cut aggressively bricks, concrete blocks, stones, paver tales, and so on, but not ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles, glass, etc. If you try to cut these kind of tiles with it the edges will chip and will make a very rough cut.

I used this polishing kit on granite and it worked perfectly. Every article I have seen on the internet regarding carrera marble does not appear to recommend machine polishing but the one youtube video showed hand polishing with similar diamond grit pads of increasing fineness. I think that since marble is so much softer than granite you have to be extremely careful and perhaps skilled to avoid damaging the surface with a tool like this.
