Alpha® developed the Hot-Rod™ blade as a revolutionary way to improve channel-cutting efficiency for countertop fabricators. This 10" diameter variant (Part No. HR10A+) is engineered for use on larger bridge saws where extra reach and leverage are required to score and cut 1/4"-deep channels for standard rodding on granite countertops and sink/cooktop cutouts.

Hot-Rod is offered in granite, marble, and porcelain versions. Each must be used only on its designated material. HR10A+ is the granite variant.
Yes. The diamond grit and matrix are formulated for all categories of granite, including hard red granites.
Three thicknesses across the line: 1/4" for standard rods, 1/8" for thinner rods, and 3/8" for threaded rods. HR10A+ is the 1/4" standard-rod thickness.
Yes. Wet cutting generally increases blade life and helps keep harmful silica dust out of the air.
No. Hot-Rod blades are designed for compatible Alpha® saws/cutters and, in the 10" size, for bridge saws — never an angle grinder.
Rounding is normal. Adjust cut depth slightly to compensate; near end-of-life a light second pass may be needed to restore full channel depth.
Yes — any application that calls for scoring the surface of granite, for example creating non-skid grooves in granite steps.
