The PCD saw blade for fiberboard and fiber cement carries polycrystalline diamond tips on a steel plate, with outside diameters from 127 to 380 mm on 15.88, 25.4 and 30 mm bores. Tooth count and kerf follow the specifications table.

Design and Construction

The PCD saw blade for fiberboard and fiber cement carries polycrystalline diamond tips on a steel plate. Outside diameters run 127 to 380 mm with bores of 15.88, 25.4, 30 and 60 mm, kerf thicknesses of 1.9 to 4 mm over plate thicknesses of 1.2 to 3.5 mm, and tooth counts from 4 to 60 in P-grind (flat) configuration matched to each diameter.

How It Works

Fiber cement is among the most abrasive materials a saw tooth can meet — cement particles destroy carbide edges in minutes of continuous cutting. The PCD tip is the standard solution: its hardness (7,000–9,000 HV) and thermal conductivity keep the edge geometry stable, and the flat P-grind teeth clear the dense, dusty chip.

Applications

Fiber cement board cutting
Fiberboard and dense composite panel cutting
Cement-bonded particleboard sizing
Cladding and facade panel production

Suitable Materials

Fiber cement board
Fiberboard (dense grades)
Cement-bonded particleboard
Calcium silicate board

PCD is the standard tip material for fiber cement: on this abrasive composite the blade life difference against carbide reaches 10–15×.

Material Comparison: PCD vs. Tungsten Carbide

The figures below are typical industry data for production woodworking. PCD does not replace carbide in every job — carbide remains the right choice for low-volume general work — but on abrasive sheet goods the difference in blade life is decisive.

Property	PCD Diamond (This Blade)	Tungsten Carbide
Hardness	7,000–9,000 HV	1,500–2,000 HV
Tool life on MDF / particleboard / melamine	15–20× longer (500–1,200 h)	30–60 h (baseline)
Tool life on solid hardwood	10–13× longer (800–2,000 h)	80–150 h (baseline)
Tool life on abrasive boards (fibre cement / composites)	10–15× longer	baseline
Edge renewal	Limited regrinds — the economics come from 15–20× longer intervals between changes, not regrind count	4–6 regrinds at shorter intervals
Cut finish	Ra ≤ 0.2 μm achievable, stable over the blade life	Ra ~0.8 μm typical, degrades as teeth wear
Thermal conductivity	540–560 W/m·K — heat leaves the tooth tip fast	~80 W/m·K
Friction coefficient	≈ 0.05 — lower cutting forces and heat	≈ 0.3
Suited for	Abrasive engineered wood, laminates, composites, fibre cement, non-ferrous metals	General-purpose solid-wood work; the economic choice at lower volumes

Figures are typical published values; actual blade life depends on the workpiece material, feed rate, depth of cut, machine condition and maintenance schedule.

Delivery Scope

Single blade. Order by part number with the diameter, kerf, bore and tooth count stated in the specifications table below.

Why Choose VPOINT

One-year warranty on every blade — defects in material or workmanship are covered for 12 months from delivery.
Custom tooling — diameters, kerfs, bores and tooth counts built to your drawing or sample.
Non-standard fabrication — sizes outside the standard catalogue, including bore re-sizing and tooth-count changes.
Resharpening service — blades return to service after regrinding at a fraction of new-blade cost.
Factory-direct since 2008 — ISO 9001 manufacturing in Sichuan and Dongguan, China; 40Cr chrome-molybdenum steel bodies; no trading intermediaries.

Send a drawing, a sample or a worn blade, and our engineering team will quote the exact specification you need.

Precision & Quality Control

Every blade is inspected before shipment. Outside diameter, kerf thickness, plate thickness, bore diameter and tooth count are measured against the values listed in the specifications table, and tooth geometry (hook angle, bevel angle) is verified against the design drawing. Blades are stress-checked for runout and tension before packing.

Blades measuring outside tolerance do not ship. Inspection is performed under our ISO 9001 quality system, with batch records retained for traceability.
