Edco Concrete Floor Grinder Polishing Machine Blocks
This listing is for a set of 3 diamond grinding blocks for use on Edco, General Tool and stow brand floor grinders. 3 blocks are needed for running a single head machine. These blocks are manufactured with five diamond segments per block for maximum performance and extended life. Our block utilize a floating grinding plate that rest on two heavy duty springs and allows the diamond segments to conform to inconsistencies in the grinding surface. All five premium diamond segments are welded the full length of the mounting plate to prevent the diamond segments from snapping off when they encounter a drain or other tough spots in the grinding surface. Diamond blocks are used to remove surface imperfections in concrete, grind or polish terrazzo, level high spots and removing rough surfaces or marks. These diamond blocks are perfect for removing resins and exposing fresh concrete before staining or reapplying coatings. Diamond blocks grind five times faster than abrasive stones and last up to 30,000 feet.
Edco designed the original Dyma -Serts with 4 segments, while adding segments seems like the best way to improve the life of this product you also need to consider the effect the additional segments have on the grinding performance. When needing to aggressively tear through overcoats and built up mastics, blocks utilizing to many segments decreases the overall pressure applied to each individual segment. This will cause the diamond segments clog and and work harder to penetrate overcoats. We have offset the additional segment applied to our product with a lower grit diamond (24 -30 grit) this has proven to be the best of both worlds, longer life and a very aggressive bite.
Although our product grinds evenly and wears evenly it is recommended rotating the diamond blocks a few times throughout their life to ensure even wear. Each set comes with our new plastic wedges. Neoprene outlasts wood wedges 100 to 1 and do not swell and shrink with water which can cause the blocks to become loose.
