Case Details

FUJI Raicho 105mm diamond saw blades provide a compact option for on-site cutting of suitable stone, tile and masonry materials with a compatible handheld saw. Three designs—Segment, Wave and Thin Wave—help contractors choose for material removal, stone cutting or tile-edge quality.

The practical advantage is portability: installers can make permitted local cuts and fitting adjustments near the work area. Useful blade life and a satisfactory edge still depend on matching the blade to the material, supporting the work and using the correct machine and cutting method.

Quick selection
  • Concrete, block and brick: evaluate the Segment design.
  • Granite, marble and suitable natural stone: evaluate the Wave design.
  • Ceramic and porcelain tile: evaluate the Thin Wave design and make a sample cut to assess edge quality.

This is an application guide. It does not report a measured result from a named construction project or guarantee a chip-free cut on every material.

Handheld cutting application with a FUJI Raicho diamond blade

1. Choose Between Segment, Wave and Thin Wave

The FUJI Raicho diamond blade product page lists three 105mm designs. Use the following as a selection starting point, then confirm the particular material, supplied blade label and tool instructions.

FUJI 105mm diamond saw blades in Segment, Wave and Thin Wave designs
Design Application focus What to evaluate
Segment Concrete, block and brick Removal rate, debris clearance and acceptable edge condition
Wave Granite, marble and suitable stone Stable cutting, material suitability and finish on the selected stone
Thin Wave Ceramic and porcelain tile Narrow kerf, visible-edge chipping and controlled feed

Blade shape is one selection factor, not a universal material approval. Dense porcelain, glazed tile and different natural stones can behave differently. Send FUJI the material description and thickness if suitability is uncertain.

2. Practical Construction-Site Applications

Tile Installation and Local Fitting Adjustments

For tile edges that will remain visible, evaluate the Thin Wave option on an offcut from the same batch. Check both the glazed face and the exit edge, together with the fit required at the joint. Support the tile securely and use the saw's intended cutting method. A handheld setup is useful for local work; a guided tile saw may be more suitable for repeated long cuts or tightly controlled exposed edges.

Stone Trimming and Installation Work

For suitable marble, granite or stone pieces, evaluate the Wave design against the material and required finish. Decide whether the cut edge will be concealed, exposed or polished afterward. A successful separation cut is not automatically a finished decorative edge: include any required edge finishing when planning the job.

Small Masonry and Concrete Cuts

The Segment design is an option for appropriate brick, block and concrete cutting tasks. Confirm that the tool's available cutting depth is sufficient. A 105mm blade is not a general solution for deep sections, large precast beams or reinforced structural members. Structural alterations and cuts near concealed services require the relevant site authorization and an appropriate cutting system.

Application example: a tile fitting trial

Identify the tile material and thickness, select a compatible Thin Wave blade and handheld saw, and make a supported trial cut using the approved dust controls. Inspect the visible edge and dimensions before repeating the setup on finished pieces. Record rejected cuts as well as cutting time. This is an evaluation workflow, not a claim of a particular customer's measured improvement.

3. Match a 105mm Diamond Blade to the Handheld Saw

A compact blade can make the setup convenient to position, but it must fit the complete tool system. Check the saw manual and blade label before installation:

  • Permitted diameter: verify that the machine accepts 105mm. Do not assume a machine limited to 100mm permits a 105mm blade because both are described as 4-inch.
  • Bore and mounting: match the spindle, flanges and approved bore arrangement. Use a reduction ring only when expressly permitted for the supplied blade and machine; never improvise an adapter.
  • Speed: the blade's marked maximum RPM must be at least the machine's rated maximum spindle speed.
  • Guard and rotation: keep the required guard and fit the blade in the indicated rotation direction.
  • Cutting mode: confirm dry or wet use for both blade and machine. Never add water to an electrical tool that is not approved for that use.
  • Reach and support: check usable cutting depth, access and workpiece stability before starting.

Use an angle grinder with a cutting blade only if the tool manufacturer permits the application and the required guard and accessories are fitted. A general-purpose wood saw is not automatically a suitable stone-cutting machine.

4. Control Chipping, Heat and Construction Dust

Cut quality depends on the whole setup. Select for the material, support the work, maintain the intended straight cut and avoid forcing or twisting the blade. Do not use the blade's side for grinding unless the specific product is approved for that operation. Stop and inspect if cutting resistance, vibration or blade condition changes unexpectedly.

For dry cutting, follow the blade and machine instructions on feed, cut depth and cooling intervals. A dry-cutting rating is not a promise of unlimited continuous cutting without overheating. Check the blade for visible damage before use and replace it when the manufacturer's wear or damage criteria are reached.

Dry cutting is not dust-free cutting. Stone, tile and masonry may release respirable crystalline silica. Use the engineering controls, work practices and respiratory protection required by the task and local rules. A dry-rated blade does not remove these requirements. Where water is the selected control, the complete tool and blade system must support it.

For a reference on the hazard and water-control approach, see OSHA's handheld power saw silica fact sheet. It explains why the cutting method and dust-control system must be planned together; requirements vary with the job and jurisdiction.

5. Evaluate Durability by Accepted Work, Not Blade Price Alone

Assess a candidate blade on representative material before committing to a larger job. Keep the material, thickness, saw and acceptance criteria consistent across the comparison.

  • Record blade model, material batch and tool setup.
  • Measure cutting time over repeated cuts rather than one best attempt.
  • Inspect chipping, straightness, dimensional fit and required edge finishing.
  • Record useful cutting length or accepted pieces, following the blade's wear limits.
  • Include blade changes, rejected pieces and rework in the cost comparison.

These checks connect durability to practical installation results. This guide does not assign a universal blade-life multiplier, chipping percentage or fatigue reduction.

6. Keep Masonry Diamond Blades Separate from Metal Cutting Discs

The Raicho diamond blades discussed here are for the specified construction materials. Do not assume they are approved for steel, rebar or embedded reinforcement. If the task is metal cutting, evaluate a separate material-rated option such as FUJI Super Tsurugi resin cutting discs with a compatible tool.

7. Frequently Asked Questions

Which FUJI 105mm blade should I consider for tile?

The Thin Wave design is the tile-focused starting point. Confirm suitability for the particular ceramic or porcelain tile and inspect a trial cut before working on visible finished edges.

Which design is intended for stone?

Evaluate the Wave design for suitable stone such as granite or marble. Confirm the material and thickness, and allow for any required finishing of exposed edges.

Can I cut without water?

Only when the supplied blade and machine permit dry cutting and the selected method meets applicable dust-control requirements. Dry capability does not mean no dust control is needed.

Does the 105mm blade fit every 4-inch handheld tool?

No. Check permitted diameter, bore, mounting, guard, speed and cutting mode. The inch description alone does not establish compatibility.

Will it leave a completely chip-free tile edge?

No universal result can be promised. Tile composition, glaze, support, blade condition and feed affect the edge. Use a representative offcut to confirm the result.

Select a Diamond Blade for Your Material and Saw

FUJI has supplied abrasive products since 1953. For this application, the useful starting point is the material and desired edge quality—not simply a request for a generic cut-off wheel.

Send the material type, thickness, saw model, permitted blade diameter and bore, maximum spindle speed and dry/wet setup. Include whether the edge will remain visible. FUJI can help identify a suitable Segment, Wave or Thin Wave specification for evaluation.
