Question :
What materials can be cut using the Alpha® Libero blades?

The Alpha® Libero blades are designed to cut softer materials such as marble, travertine, soapstone and alabaster. The electroplated diamond design assures smooth clean cuts without chipping or cracking the material.
Question :
Can a dry blade be used wet?
Answer :
Yes. Cutting wet will generally increase the blades life and help keep harmful dust (Silica) out of the air.
Question :
Why should I use the Alpha® Stone Cutters (AWS-110/AWS-125) rather than an angle grinder?
Answer :
The Alpha® AWS-110 and AWS-125 Wet Stone Cutters give you better cutting stability since the power tools base glides across the surface of material being cut and provides for increased accuracy rather than by freehand application. Also, the Alpha® Stone Cutters have a water feed supply to for wet cutting to keep dust out of the air.
Question :
Can I use the Alpha® Libero blade to cut granite?

No. The Alpha® Libero blade utilizes electroplated diamonds which are designed to cut only soft materials. If you use this blade to cut hard materials such has granite, the electroplated diamonds will round-over/dull and the blades cutting ability will be lost almost immediately.
