A: A diamond profiling wheel designed to create a rough finish 45° bevel on tile edges using Raimondi Bulldog Advanced machines.
Q: What is it used for in tile finishing?
A: It’s the second step (rough finish) after milling, preparing beveled edges for polishing and improving edge quality.
Q: What tiles and machines is it compatible with?
A: Fits Raimondi Bulldog Advanced (BD1WD/BD2WD) profiling machines and some back‑finishers.
Q: Why is the grit level important?
A: The 160‑grit rough finish removes milling marks and preps the bevel for smoother, high‑quality polishing.
Q: Who should use this wheel?
A: Professional tile installers and fabricators needing consistent, durable bevel preparation on porcelain, marble, granite, and other stone tiles.
Maintenance Tips
-
Clean after use: Wipe diamond surface and arbor to remove stone dust/slurry and prevent clogging that can reduce cutting efficiency.
-
Check fit before mounting: Ensure the wheel seats securely on the arbor and spins true to avoid wobble or vibration during beveling.
-
Inspect diamond grit: Replace when grit wears smooth or loses cutting action to maintain consistent rough finish prep for polishing.
-
Avoid side pressure: Apply even feed pressure within machine specs to prevent premature wear or wheel cracking.
-
Use correct sequence: Pair with the Step 1 milling wheel for best 45° bevel preparation before rough finishing.
-
Store dry: Keep in a clean, dry environment to protect resin bond and prevent contamination of diamond surface.
