Description
PCD stands for Polycrystalline Diamond. We offer PCDs with or without sacrificial bars and metal button with different level of aggressiveness.
- PCD WITHOUT Sacrificial Bars or Metal Bond Button are very aggressive and will leave a very coarse profile on the concrete underneath. They are suitable for removal of thick mastics and glues, elastomeric membranes, thick parking deck membranes, 30 mils and up epoxy coatings, and any coating with silica sand broadcast mixed in.
- PCD WITH Sacrificial Bars or Metal Bond Button are less aggressive so they do not damage the concrete. The sacrificial bars or the metal button act as a stabilizer and depth guide, and reduce the gauging of the floor caused by the aggressive pcd segments. These tools are suitable for removal of medium to thin mastics or glues, and failing epoxy coatings (30 mils or less).
PCDs are direction specific tools – use the BLACK PCD tools for Electric grinders with the exception of 32″ Elite models, and the BLUE PCD tools for Propane grinders and 32″ electric Elite models.
Use PCD tools with LOW RPMs.
