First-Cut, Early Entry Diamond Blade w/ Triangle Knockout - BASIC5000

Early entry saw operators cutting control joints in fresh concrete will find this diamond blade handles the job without the hassle of pin knockouts. The BASIC5000 features a triangle knockout design that simplifies arbor mounting and reduces setup time between cuts. This First-Cut blade is engineered for green concrete applications, typically used 1-4 hours after finishing when the slab has set enough to prevent raveling but before random cracking occurs. The diamond segment configuration delivers clean cuts while minimizing spalling at joint edges. Works with standard early entry saws for residential, commercial, and industrial flatwork. Built for concrete contractors and saw operators who need reliable performance on fresh pours without complicated blade changes.
