Floorsaw Blades
Floorsaw blades are large-diameter diamond blades designed for deep, heavy-duty cutting of concrete, asphalt, and road surfaces. Used with floor saw machines on infrastructure, highways, and large-scale construction projects, they deliver the cutting depth, stability, and service life that handheld blades cannot provide. At CMT Group, our floorsaw blade range includes the OTEC D18P Professional Plus, our best-selling floor saw blade available in diameters from 350mm to 600mm.

What Are Floorsaw Blades?
Floorsaw blades are large-diameter diamond cutting blades designed specifically for use with floor saw machines. Floor saws are ride-on or walk-behind cutting machines used for cutting horizontal surfaces including roads, concrete slabs, industrial flooring, and paved surfaces. Unlike handheld angle grinder blades or petrol saw blades, floorsaw blades are engineered for deep cuts, sustained cutting loads, and long continuous operation in heavy-duty site conditions.
The large diameter of floorsaw blades, typically ranging from 350mm to 600mm or beyond, allows significantly deeper cuts than smaller blades, making them essential for infrastructure work such as cutting expansion joints in road surfaces, trenching through reinforced concrete slabs, and removing sections of damaged road or flooring. Material-specific blade design is critical at this scale: concrete floorsaw blades use harder bond matrices for dense aggregate materials, while asphalt floorsaw blades use softer bonds with undercut protection to manage the highly abrasive nature of bituminous road surfaces.
Floorsaw Blades by Application
Each floorsaw blade type is engineered for a specific material to maximise cutting performance and service life.
Choosing the Right Floorsaw Blade
The two most important factors in floorsaw blade selection are material type and blade diameter. Getting the material match right is essential: concrete blades are built for the hardness and aggregate content of structural concrete, while asphalt blades are built for the abrasiveness and softness of road surfaces. Using a concrete blade on asphalt will result in rapid wear; using an asphalt blade on concrete will produce poor cutting speed and reduced service life.
Blade diameter determines maximum cutting depth. Larger diameters allow deeper cuts and are required for thick road construction or deep slab work. All blades in our range are available in multiple diameters, so it is important to match both the diameter and bore size to your specific floor saw machine. For mixed-material sites or where blade changes need to be minimised, the OTEC D18P Professional Plus multi-purpose blade is the most widely chosen option across our customer base.
| Application | Recommended blade type | Key selection note |
|---|---|---|
| Reinforced and structural concrete | Concrete floorsaw blade | Hard bond for density and aggregate load |
| Asphalt road surfaces | Asphalt floorsaw blade | Soft bond with undercut protection |
| Mixed materials, varied site conditions | Multi-purpose (OTEC D18P) | Best seller, 350mm to 600mm available |
| In-situ concrete with limestone aggregate | Concrete or multi-purpose blade | Confirm aggregate hardness before specifying |
| Flint aggregate concrete | Hard material or specialist concrete blade | Flint is highly abrasive, requires harder bond |
Contractor-Grade Floorsaw Blades for UK Infrastructure and Construction
Floorsaw blades are essential for construction, civil engineering, and roadworks where deep, accurate cutting is required across tough materials. From cutting expansion joints and service trenches to removing damaged road sections and preparing surfaces for reinstatement, floor saw blades carry out some of the most demanding cutting work on UK construction and highways projects.
CMT Group supplies contractor-grade floorsaw blades built for performance and durability in real site conditions. Our range includes OTEC blades developed through continuous investment in diamond blade technology, supporting contractors, civil engineers, and procurement teams with the product selection, stock availability, and delivery speed required to keep cutting operations running on schedule.
Frequently asked questions
What are floorsaw blades used for?
Floorsaw blades are used for deep cutting of concrete, asphalt, and road surfaces in construction, civil engineering, and roadworks. Common applications include cutting expansion joints in concrete and asphalt roads, trenching through reinforced concrete slabs, removing sections of damaged road surface, and cutting service routes through industrial flooring.
What materials can floorsaw blades cut?
Floorsaw blades can cut in-situ concrete, reinforced concrete, asphalt, limestone aggregate, flint aggregate concrete, and other hard construction materials found in road and slab construction. The correct blade type must be selected for each material to achieve optimum performance and service life.
What size floorsaw blade do I need?
Blade size depends on your required cutting depth and the specifications of your floor saw machine. Our floorsaw blades are available in diameters from 350mm to 600mm. Larger diameters allow deeper cuts and are used on thicker road construction and deep slab work. Always confirm both diameter and bore size are compatible with your machine before ordering.
What is the difference between concrete and asphalt floorsaw blades?
Concrete floorsaw blades use a harder bond matrix designed for the density and aggregate content of structural concrete. Asphalt floorsaw blades use a softer bond with undercut protection to handle the highly abrasive, bituminous nature of road surfaces. Using a concrete blade on asphalt causes rapid segment wear. Using an asphalt blade on concrete produces slow cutting and short blade life. Matching the blade to the material is essential for both performance and cost efficiency.
What is the best-selling floorsaw blade at CMT Group?
The OTEC D18P Professional Plus is our best-selling floorsaw blade. It is a multi-purpose blade available in a range of diameters from 350mm to 600mm, making it suitable for mixed-material site environments where cutting across concrete, asphalt, and aggregate is required. Its combination of performance, versatility, and availability in multiple diameters makes it the most widely chosen floorsaw blade across our customer base.
Why buy floorsaw blades from CMT Group?
CMT Group supplies contractor-grade floorsaw blades including our own OTEC range, with strong UK stockholding and same-day and next-day delivery available for urgent site requirements. Our team can advise on the correct blade specification for your machine and material, and we offer bulk supply pricing for contractors and procurement teams managing multiple cutting operations.
Floorsaw Blades vs Petrol Saw Blades: What is the Difference?
Floorsaw blades and petrol saw blades are both diamond cutting blades for cutting concrete and asphalt, but they are engineered for very different machines and cutting requirements. Floorsaw blades are large-diameter blades designed for ride-on or walk-behind floor saw machines that cut horizontally into flat surfaces. Their large size, typically 350mm to 600mm diameter, allows deep cuts of 150mm or more, making them the tool of choice for road cutting, slab work, and expansion joint cutting on major infrastructure projects.
Petrol saw blades, by contrast, are smaller-diameter blades used with handheld cut-off saws for general construction cutting. They are more portable and versatile for site use but are limited in cutting depth, typically to around 100mm to 130mm depending on blade size and machine. The core and segment design of floorsaw blades is also built for the sustained load and vibration of floor saw operation, which is significantly more demanding than handheld cutting. For deep road cutting or structural concrete slab work, a floor saw with the correct floorsaw blade is the correct tool. For general-purpose cutting where portability matters, a petrol saw blade is more appropriate.
