Concrete Blade Codes from CSDA

Step 8

If you follow all of the steps, you will be armed with the information necessary to find exactly the type of diamond blade you'll need for your next sawing project. Now it will be easier than ever to identify whether a certain blade meets your requirements thanks to a new blade application code (PDF) developed by CSDA and endorsed by the Masonry and Concrete Saw Manufacturers Institute (SMI).

The code, which is in a three-letter format separated by dashes, will be permanently imprinted on the blade. And it will tell you at a glance whether the blade is for wet or dry use, what type of material it can cut, and the saw type it's designed to work with.
