What materials can the Eclipse Q cut?
Tile, brick, block, concrete, slate and natural stone including granite. It is best suited to medium-to-soft granite, but will also cut harder varieties.
Can I run the Eclipse Q wet?
Yes. Wet cutting generally extends blade life and keeps harmful silica dust out of the air.
Why must I use a Quad Drive or Flange Adapter?
The Eclipse Q is engineered to run on the Alpha Quad Drive / Flange Adapter system. It must always be paired with the proper adapter — never mount it directly to a grinder spindle.
What is the diamond layer height?
8mm, which gives the blade extended service life compared to standard turbo blades.
Can I use the Eclipse Q for groove cutting?
No. Use the Alpha® Groove Cutter for grooves. The Eclipse Q is built for flush cuts and 90° inside corners.
Can I mount it on a polisher?
No. Polisher RPM is too low; use a high-speed angle grinder rated at or above the blade's max RPM.
