The MK Diamond MK-225 is a Premium Grade thin-rim tile blade, and this 7-inch (178mm) size is built for tile setters and stone fabricators who need clean, straight cuts through dense porcelain and vitreous tile. MK Diamond designs the MK-225 with stiffening and cooling slots that help the blade track straight through hard material instead of wandering.
Built for
- Porcelain tile installation: cut large-format and dense porcelain tile on the job or at the saw.
- Vitreous tile work: trim vitreous tile for floors, walls and showers with a thin kerf.
- Tile shops and remodelers: a 7-inch blade for tile saws and grinders that accept a 5/8-inch arbor.
- Detail cuts: notches, corners and trims where a thin .050-inch blade removes less material.
Thin rim, slotted for straight cuts
MK lists the MK-225 as a thin-rim blade with a 7mm rim height. The thin .050-inch width keeps the cut narrow, and the stiffening and cooling slots are there to help the blade cut straight through dense porcelain. The MK-225 family runs from 4 inches to 14 inches, so you can standardize on one blade design across a shop with different tile saws and grinders.
This listing is the 7-inch blade with a 5/8-inch arbor. Confirm that your saw accepts a 5/8-inch arbor and a 7-inch blade, and follow the saw maker and blade maker instructions for water use, speed and safety equipment.
