Review on πŸ”ͺ Makita E-02624 5-Inch Diamond Blade: Turbo Cut for Hard Materials by Paul Zimmer

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Broken after five minutes of cutting

The blade itself is not broken, there was a small collet in the middle. If you zoom in on the product image you will see a serrated gold collet in the center of the blade around the hole. This came to light when I was cutting a granite slab after about 5 minutes of use. So it was that I got a good return on the saw, although fortunately I wasn't injured. The Makita saw I used came with a blade and I used it to finish the job. I tried putting the collet back in place but it wouldn't stay and after that I couldn't fully tighten the blade. Extremely disappointing.

Pros
  • power tools and hand tools
Cons
  • old
