QEP 7-Inch Glass Tile Diamond Blade - Continuous Rim, 7mm Rim, 5-8 Inch Arbor, Wet Cutting, 8,730 RPM

Overview

The QEP 7-Inch Glass Tile Diamond Blade is engineered for precision on wet tile saws. Its continuous rim and diamond-coated edge are designed to produce clean, steady cuts in glass tile with minimal chipping, helping you achieve a polished edge as you work. While glass tile is the primary focus, the blade is compatible with other tile materials when cutting with water lubrication, including ceramic, porcelain, mosaic, and many natural stone products.

Built for reliable performance, this blade balances durability with controllable cutting action. The design emphasizes a consistent cut pace and reduced edge chipping, which can contribute to faster tile installation and a neater finish on tight projects such as backsplashes, shower surrounds, and decorative panels.

Key features

• 7 mm continuous rim supports smoother, cleaner cuts in glass tile
• Diamond-coated cutting edge delivers durability when slicing through tough tile surfaces
• Wet cutting capability up to 8,730 RPM for fast, controlled performance
• 5/8 inch arbor compatibility with most wet tile saws
• Steel blade construction adds stability for steady cutting action

What to expect during use

• Water cooling helps minimize heat buildup and prolong blade life
• Continuous rim promotes a smooth, linear cut with reduced vibration
• Diamond edge maintains a crisp edge on glass tile with minimal edge chips

Real-world scenarios include installing glass tile in kitchens and baths, updating countertops, or adding mosaic accents. The blade’s versatility means you may also tackle adjacent tile materials when cutting wet, though results will depend on material hardness and water management. Always follow safety guidelines and use appropriate PPE for best results.

Usage tips

• Keep the saw and water flow steady to maximize edge quality
• Let the blade work with the tile, avoiding excessive downward pressure
