Description
Product Overview
The DISTAR Termit 3" Diamond Blade proves that small tools can deliver powerful results. Designed with a turbo rim for enhanced cutting performance, this compact blade handles ultra-strong porcelain gres up to 0.4 in. (10 mm) thick with ease.
Its small 3" diameter allows access to tight spaces and hard-to-reach areas where standard 4.5"–5" blades simply cannot fit. With a thin 1.0 mm diamond layer and an ultra-slim 0.8 mm steel core, the Termit delivers clean, chip-free edges with minimal need for post-processing.
Optimized for dry cutting, the Termit offers precise control, maneuverability, and professional-quality results for detailed tile installations.
