The MK-485D is MK Diamond's Supreme Grade dry-cutting blade for asphalt overlay and green concrete. Part number 152996 is the 20-inch (508mm) size with a .125-inch core and a 1-inch arbor, so it mounts on 20-inch saws with a standard 1-inch shaft. It is a laser-welded segmented blade with 12mm segments, built for contractors who cut fresh pavement and early-age slabs without water on the saw.
Use cases
- Asphalt overlay and patching. Straight cuts through asphalt for utility trenches, patches and edge trimming.
- Green concrete saw cutting. Joint cutting in new slabs soon after the pour.
- Dry-cut job sites. Work where running water is impractical.
- Replacing a worn blade. A swap for a 20-inch, .125-inch core, 1-inch arbor MK-485D.
