Effective But Short Lived

This product fit well on my grinder and had a convenient flat edged section for loosening with a wrench. It cut through mortar well. I used it to grind out the vertical brick joints. However, it took very little time for the bit to dull. Within at most a few minutes, I was already having to put my weight into the tool for it to perform well. I know that some mortars are harder than others, so it’s possible that the mortar in my home was hard. Regardless, I would have expected this to last…

Pros
  • Very sturdy
Cons
  • Works very well for soft mortar, but not for newer repairs.

Perfect For Tuck Pointing

So glad I didn't listen to the bad reviews. This thing was expensive, but it probably saved me 2 hours of work and cleaned my brick joints much better than I could do with a chisel. Makes quick work of removing old loose and cracked mortar. Chews through it like a hot knife through butter. The only way I could see breaking this if if you tried to put too much force on it. If your mortar is so hard that it is creating resistance, then it probably doesn't need to be re-tuck pointed.

Pros
  • It is the ideal diamond tool
Cons
  • While the diamond grit material of the Raizi Mortar Raking Diamond Bit is designed for long-lasting durability, this may come at a higher cost than other, non-diamond bit options. Contractors may need to consider whether the abrasiveness of the diamond bit is worth the investment, especially if they only need a tool for occasional use

Worked perfectly to clear cracked mortar

I recently bought a house that had a long crack in the mortar on one side of the house. This made quick work of clearing the cracked mortar so I could repoint it. Definitely recommend it. My only regret is I didn't buy the longer one too.

Pros
  • Nice & efficient.
Cons
  • The Raizi Mortar Raking Diamond Bit may not be appropriate for every job, as its 5/16 inch x 1 inch size may be too narrow for some projects requiring wider mortar removal. This may limit its versatility on job sites, forcing construction professionals to seek out additional tools to complete their work
