Norton Clipper diamond blades and bits are designed for extended tough cutting of building materials, stone, tile, brick, asphalt, limestone, pipe, rebar and just about any other harddense material you can find. In the early 80s, we revolutionized the diamond blade with the process of laser welding diamond segments to the steel core vs. sintering segments. Laser-welded products deliver exceptional speed of cut and long life. And, we didn't stop there. Our technologies extend to shaped gullets, noise-dampening cores, split segments and depth-of-cut indicators to name a few. The Norton line will stand up to the toughest job.
