The MK Diamond MK-225 14-inch tile blade is a premium grade, thin-rim blade for porcelain and vitreous tile. Stiffening and cooling slots in the rim are designed to keep the cut straight in dense porcelain, which makes it a good choice for tile setters, countertop installers and stone fabricators who cut hard flooring material all day.

Fit and compatibility
This 14-inch MK-225 has a 1-inch arbor. MK Diamond publishes the MK-225 in smaller sizes with different arbors and rim widths under separate part numbers, so confirm the diameter and arbor of your saw before ordering. Check the MK-225 sell sheet or manual for RPM and wet or dry guidance for your saw.
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 tile. Steady feed pressure and a steady water supply where your saw uses one 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.
