What Is a Crack Chaser Blade for Concrete and How Does It Work?
When repairing concrete cracks, 73% of contractors report uneven grooves as their top frustration. Enter the crack chaser blade for concrete - a specialized diamond tool designed to create precise V-shaped channels. Unlike standard grinding wheels, these blades feature:
- 10-14mm protruding diamond segments for controlled depth
- Reverse helix design that ejects debris at 200 CFM
- Varying grit sizes (16/20 for soft concrete vs 30/40 for aged surfaces)
How it works?
The blade’s angled diamonds shear concrete at 4,500 RPM, forming 1:3 width-to-depth ratio grooves perfect for epoxy filling. Field tests show 40% faster prep time compared to hammer/chisel methods.
Pro Tip about selecting sizes
Use 3/8” blades for residential slabs and 1/2” versions for industrial floors. Always match the blade’s collar size to your grinder’s arbor (typically 5/8”-11 UNC thread).
