| Article | iQ Power Tools, manufacturer of premium power tools with integrated dust collection systems, has introduced another innovative product to their growing tile line. The firm now brings to market a new 10” blade for its iQTS244 saw; specifically engineered to cut softer materials. Incorporating the latest in diamond technology, the Q-Drive blade is designed specifically for "soft materials" such as marble, limestone, travertine, cultured marble and onyx. The blade's diamond pattern, combined with an added flange, allows for thinner cuts than standard blades. This flange reinforces the blade’s tension with increased stability, while maintaining a thin, precise cut. Made possible by strong jobsite experience and subsequent testing, iQ’s “Cool Cut Technology” is a proprietary composition of diamond concentration, metal type and flange thickness that cuts cool while reducing vibration and movement. This technology, combined with the built-in vacuum (found on all iQ saws) keeps the blade cool during cutting, reducing warping and wandering. Most noticeably, the blade actually stays cool to the touch. Because the saw's vacuum system removes any cutting debris, the blade is not regrinding the same material, thus reducing friction and heat. “iQ Power Tools listens to the market and the provides problem-solving tools,” commented Sarah Williams, iQ’s Marketing Director. “Our customers work with a variety of different materials, both hard and soft. This new blade provides them with more choices when dry cutting. They can easily DRY cut materials; indoors or out… saving time and money!” About iQ Power Tools iQ Power Tools manufactures a comprehensive range of premium power tools with integrated dust collection systems for the concrete, masonry, hardscape and tile sectors. The company was founded by third-generation mason contractors, Joel and Paul Guth, who have logged over 30 years each in the masonry industry. Decades of experience taught them about dust problems; their company started out creating tools to solve their own problems only to realize these same issues affected all contractors… mess, money and a threat to the health and safety of the industry. iQ Power Tools envisions a future where their innovation helps create a 100% dust-free environment: jobsites are safer, work practices are healthier... and, the construction industry becomes even more sustainable. |
