The MK Diamond MK-500 14-inch (356mm) blade is a standard grade, laser-welded blade for cutting cured concrete. Part number 153256 has a .375-inch width and a 1-inch arbor, and it is matched to saws in the 5 to 12 horsepower range.
Laser welding bonds the segments to the steel core, and the 10mm segment height gives you working depth between blade changes. It is a practical choice for contractors who want a dependable concrete blade without stepping up to a high-horsepower professional series.

- Cured concrete cutting. Make control cuts and sawn openings in hardened concrete.
- Mid-power saws. Run on saws in the 5 to 12 horsepower range.

Fit and compatibility
Confirm the arbor size, blade guard clearance and horsepower of your saw before ordering (this blade has a 1-inch arbor). MK Diamond can supply additional diameters, widths and special arbors on request.
Getting the most from the blade
Match the blade diameter and arbor to your saw, keep the blade guard in place, and let the blade do the cutting rather than forcing it through the material. Steady feed pressure and, where the blade is designed for wet cutting, a steady water supply keep the cut cleaner and help the blade last. Wear eye, hearing and respiratory protection and follow the saw maker and MK Diamond safety guidance.
