The MK Diamond MK-62GSL-P is a 16-inch (406mm) x .125-inch Professional Grade Silent Core segmented blade for wet cutting granite. It belongs to MK Diamond's Silent Core stone blade family, which MK describes as a sandwich-core design built to cut down the ringing and noise of a standard steel core, so fabricators and installers can cut granite all day with less blade noise.
Built for
- Countertop fabrication: straight cuts and sink or cooktop cut-outs in granite slabs on a wet-cutting stone saw.
- Tile and stone installers: sizing granite tile and thick pieces on site or in the shop.
- Monument and stone shops: rough sizing and squaring of granite stock before polishing and finishing.
- Shops that care about noise: a quieter blade for enclosed fabrication spaces and shared work areas.
What Silent Core means
Standard steel-core stone blades can ring loudly while they cut. MK Diamond's Silent Core blades use a laminated sandwich core, described on MK's MK-62MSL page as two steel cores laminated with a copper center, to reduce that noise. This listing is the Professional Grade MK-62GSL-P version in the 16-inch size. Because MK publishes its detailed specification tables for the related Premium Grade blades, confirm arbor size and segment height with our team before you order if your saw is particular about them.
Run the blade wet, with a steady water supply, on a saw rated for a 16-inch blade. Follow the saw maker and blade maker safety instructions and wear eye and hearing protection.
