Gemini Standard Diamond Blade Kit for Taurus 3 and Apollo

The standard blade is the perfect choice for cutting stained glass pattern and an all around multi-purpose cutting blade.


Features

  • Original replacement blade fits the Gemini Tile Shaper, Taurus 2, and Taurus 3 and Apollo saws
  • Omni-directional blade has the ability to cut at the same speed and kerf in any direction
  • 360 degree diamond coating allows the blade to cut quickly while grinding the edge, leaving it smooth
  • Comes with 2 orange grommets (part no.0485)
  • Note: Do not use for ceramic tile, 3/8" fused glass pieces or thick material in general

How To Use

  • All blades cut the same materials: glass, tile, stone, shell, nonferrous metals, hard plastics such as acrylic and lexan, and anything that has a similar density to these materials
  • All blades use the same belt and grommets. Blades are interchangeable with the same belt and grommets and do not need to be changed unless they are excessively worn
  • Always let the blade do the cutting. Forcing the blade through the material in a hurry will not only cause a slower cut but can also shorten the blade life
  • There is an optimum speed for each blade in each material; you can feel it while you are cutting. Sensitivity to this causes extremely long blade life at which you get maximum cutting speed for minimal pressure

Taurus 3 standard blade

by Brian L -

Ordered three of these and they showed up 3 days later (even with standard shipping). Conractors Direct really came through on this. So much so that I've ordered the separator blade (x2) from them as well.

Excellent

by Kathy -

These are the original blades for the Taurus 3 Ring Saw. Everywhere I purchased in the past broke within three days. I am so happy I found this place to purchase the original blades. Plus they were delivered quickly and in great shape. Thank you for being online and a reputable source.

Great product at a good price

Purchased this blade along with a few others and the Taurus 3 Ring Saw. The blade arrived in excellent shape and installed easily into the ring saw.
