Makita Diamond Blade B-69711 5 Inch Turbo Rim (0.51 Segment Height 7/8 Arbor Wet Dry Concrete Brick Block Paver Masonry Cutting Disc Tool Unit)

Makita B-69711 5" Turbo Rim General Purpose Diamond Blade

The Makita B-69711 5-inch turbo rim diamond blade cuts cured concrete, structural cinder blocks, clay facing bricks, interlocking patio pavers, and terracotta roof tiles with exceptional speed and minimal chipping. Engineered with 50% taller 0.51-inch (13 mm) diamond-impregnated rim segments that provide up to 4X longer operational life and 30% smoother cutting finishes compared to standard segmented blades, this blade maintains constant material contact across tough masonry surfaces. Outfitted with an expertly tensioned steel core to minimize tool vibration up to 12,250 maximum RPM, multi-arbor compatibility, and full wet or dry cutting capability, it equips professional masons, hardscape contractors, and remodelers with precise, clean-edged masonry slicing across 5-inch angle grinders and handheld cut-off tools.

Best Used For:

• Interlocking Patio Paver Sizing: Slicing dense concrete pavers, landscape retaining wall blocks, and stone edging cleanly without edge blowout.
• Brick Masonry and Mortar Trimming: Executing smooth, chip-free crosscuts and decorative reveals in solid clay facing bricks and architectural CMU blocks.
• Cured Concrete and Roof Tile Sectioning: Trimming cured concrete expansion slabs, cement backer boards, and clay roofing tiles during structural installations.

Key Performance & Safety Features

• Continuous Turbo Rim Profile: Serrated turbo geometry maintains constant surface contact to deliver up to 30% smoother cutting passes and reduce material edge chipping.
• Taller 0.51-Inch (13 mm) Segments: Extended diamond matrix depth provides 50% more wearable volume for up to 4X longer service life in abrasive materials.

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: When cutting hard concrete pavers or dense masonry brick, let the 12,250 RPM rotational speed do the work with moderate feed pressure; oscillating the blade gently back and forth clears aggregate dust from the kerf and keeps the 13mm diamond segments running cool.
