PEARL ABRASIVE CO. P4 Thin Mesh Turbo Porcelain Blade 7" 5/8"-DKO-7/8

Great Blade. I cut all the tiles with this when I put 1 ft by 2 ft porcelain tiles on the bathroom floor. It was even easy to cut the curve around the base of the bathtub. I was able to do all the tile cutting with a grinder and this blade.

I purchased a fancy tile saw from one of the big-name hardware stores when I was remodeling one of our bathrooms. The saw itself was great, but the blade that came with it left a lot of small chips in the tiles during cutting. Someone in the review section recommended upgrading to the Pearl P4 blade. What an incredible upgrade it was! The cuts with this blade are so smooth that I occasionally had to inspect the tile during the installation because I couldn't tell the difference between the cut edge and the factory edges. I used it to cut about forty 12" x 24" porcelain tiles, and it worked as well on the last one as it did on the first. I can't recommend this blade enough!

Great general purpose blade that cuts decently fast with minimumal chipping. I would say the perfect balanced blade. The blade has one of the least amounts of run-out I've seen too which is great. I've used it to cut a couple thousand square feet of tile. Like 8 bathrooms and a few floors and it's still going strong. I've bought all the fancy well known names and I think this is the best so far. 25 years of construction. I forgot my buffing pad in the picture and got away with raw cuts. (Not recommended)

This is a great cutting blade that must be close to 98% chip free cutting. That's why I love it. Now for the but, the longevity. I have used several store brand blades that may not cut as well, but will last as long as this one. This is my second blade of this type cutting porcelain. I cuts great for 80% of it's life, then depreciates quickly. If it were available around $50 I might buy it again, but at $70 or more, it lacks value.

I’ve had this a year or so now and still cutting tile like butter

Well, the quality of Pearl has gone down hill. Over used these blades for years but recently purchased 2 and the first one broke after a few cuts (chunk flew out if it which is extremely dangerous) I sent it back and got a replacement. First job in and it broke too. Mind you, I'm making only straight cuts and I have over 20 years experience. The other blade is poorly cutting through (cheap) porcelain tile. I put an old, very worn out blade (same brand/type) and it cuts no problem. It's not a dressing the blade issue... it's a quality issue. Unfortunately, I will no longer be purchasing these blades... they were my favorite blades but due to the quality issues, I can't risk being impaled by flying shards from broken blades.

It is the best blade you can get for porcelain tile, get your saw squared perfect with blade and this thing will rip a 30” tile within .030 and no chips, I can’t tell the difference from cut side or factory! It is awesome!

This is one of my favorite tile saw blades. It cuts porcelain tile like butter. It also cuts schluter trim and metal rails. It makes clean cuts.

Did the job well!!! Awesome pro cuts and smooth progression through material. Installed all of my tiles and sold the whole kit saw and blade. Cheaper than renting the machine!

Cuts porcelain tile very well. Wetting the blade occasionally helps with the process. Did about 30 cuts, and it’s still going strong. Highly recommended.

I am doing a tile job for my son in law and bought this because I knew I would need something to cut some tricky things eventually. Well this blade goes through ceramic subway tile like butter. Always wear glasses just incase! Highly recommend this cutting wheel

The best

The blade is great, however I don’t appreciate getting a new item in an open package. If it’s not sealed, it’s not new imo.
