First-Cut, Early Entry Diamond Blade w/ Triangle Knockout - BASIC3000

Early entry saw operators cutting control joints in fresh concrete will find this diamond blade delivers clean cuts during the critical 1-4 hour window after placement. The BASIC3000 features a triangle knockout arbor design that adapts to multiple early entry saw models without requiring additional hardware. Diamond segments are engineered to handle the abrasive conditions of green concrete while minimizing surface spalling and edge chipping. The blade cuts through aggregate and paste efficiently during the narrow timeframe when concrete is hard enough to support the saw but soft enough to prevent random cracking. Built for concrete contractors running early entry saws on flatwork, slabs, and industrial floors where joint placement timing makes the difference between a clean installation and costly callbacks.
