Sierras para hormigón y discos de diamante

Evolution’s Electric Disc Cutters are concrete saws powered by electricity. They operate without the need for oil or gas, emit no harmful exhaust fumes, and start instantly at the push of a button. They provide a cleaner cutting solution compared to more expensive gas-powered saws, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor masonry cutting tasks.

Electric disc cutters are typically lighter, more compact, and easier to handle than their gasoline counterparts, making them a better choice for general work and projects requiring precision. They also generate less noise and emissions, making them more environmentally friendly. Electric disc cutters offer instant torque at all times and don’t require a rev-up to start a cut.

On the other hand, gasoline-powered disc cutters use a fuel and oil mixture that needs to be prepared before use. They produce more noise, exhaust emissions, and are generally heavier and larger than electric disc cutters. However, they offer the advantage of being used in areas without power and larger gas models can deliver more power compared to electric ones.

The choice between electric or gasoline power depends on factors such as power needs, cost, weight, ease of use, and the type and size of the job.

Evolution’s new Disc Cutters are entirely redesigned from the ground up. They feature new motors, drivetrains, casings, and blades. While they maintain the ease of use, environmentally friendly electric power, and good value for money of the older models, they incorporate lessons learned from a decade of experience in designing and supporting the older models in the market.

With the blade guard in the optimum position angled to cover as much of the exposed upper side of the blade as possible, the dust extraction port can be very effective with a good quality vacuum. The deeper the cut the more effective it is.  

Water dust suppression is the use of water to manage high levels of dust. It dampens the air to reduce dust particles in the environment and to prevent you from breathing in large quantities. Water suppression is also an advantage when using a disc cutter, as it cools the blade and extends the lifespan of both the blade and the saw.

Dust suppression is a legal requirement on construction sites for health and safety compliance due to harmful dust particles in masonry materials such as silica dust.

The R260DCT-Li, R300DCT+ and the R350DCT models all feature water suppression.

Absolutely yes, you can use dust extraction and water suppression simultaneously, with our R15VAC Wet N Dry vacuum and other similar systems you’ll get the best of both worlds.

Both the R350DCT and the cordless battery-powered R260DCT-Li feature our new automatic water feed valve for the most efficient dust suppression. The automatic valve lets the water flow as soon as the blade starts spinning and cuts the water off when you release the power. There's also an independent flow rate control valve, so you can 'set and forget', meaning you can concentrate on your cuts.

The Evolution R300DCT+ includes dual-sided water-fed dust suppression, but not our automatic on/off feature.

All Evolution Disc Cutters that provide water dust suppression connect to a hose or pressurised bottle and use brass fittings for durability.

The premium and General-purpose diamond blades differ in the quantity of diamond that is used in their cutting surfaces. Both blades are designed for cutting a wide range of masonry materials, the Premium Blades contain 30% more diamond, this allows them to cut faster, last longer and be more suitable for harder materials, engineering bricks, higher quartz content stone etc.

The R230DCT and R255DCT models both use a 7/8-inch Arbor. The R300DCT & R300DCT+ models use a 1-Inch Arbor.

All our disc cutters are perfect for cutting through bricks and blocks.

The R230DCT is our entry level disc cutter, perfect for DIY or light trade use. With a 2000W motor and 90mm cutting depth the R230DCT will easily cut a brick when laid flat.
All our other disc cutters will cut through a brick and block in one pass on the longest side. This speeds up your workflow and means no turning of brick or blocks.

All our other disc cutters with a 102mm depth of cut will easily cut through a typical UK cavity wall, making it ideal for opening up walls for fitting new windows and doors.

The General Purpose and Premium Diamond blades are both ideal for cutting bricks. The Premium Diamond blade with its higher diamond content will be better for cutting harder materials such as engineering brick?

The Heavy-Duty multi-material Demolition blade is specifically designed to cut masonry, woodwork, rebar reinforced slab and metals. This blade features a unique multi-material cutting compound that works to quickly cut through the widest range of construction materials.

Unlike petrol disc cutters, electric and battery-powered saws require minimal servicing. The main consumable is the carbon brushes, which are easily replaceable by the user.
As with all power tools proper care and maintenance of your disc cutter is crucial for ensuring its longevity, efficiency, and safe operation:

1. Inspect before each use. Check the blade for damage like cracks or chips and replace it if necessary. Ensure the arbour is clean to prevent wobbling.
2. Clean after use: Remove dust and debris to prevent overheating. Use a brush or air to clean ventilation slots. Clean the cutter body with a suitable cleaner to remove residue and prevent rust.
3. Store correctly in a dry, frost-free location. Avoid storing in extreme temperatures.

Evolution disc cutters are built tough and all have a 3 year manufacturers warranty, Should you ever need to replace a part on your saw due to damage or misuse Evolution offers a wide selection of spares via the website as well as complete product servicing at competitive rates.

At Evolution we have a wide range of saws with varying cutting depths for all requirements

• R230DCT: 90mm - ideal for DIY and light trade use
• R255DCT: 102mm - larger blade cuts a brick or block in one pass - ideal for DIY and light trade
• R260DCT-Li: 102mm - cordless battery power, ideal for trade and serious DIY
• R300DCT / R300DCT+: 115mm - built for heavy duty trade use
• R350DCT: 130mm - our deepest cuts, perfect for heavy duty trade use in the toughest conditions

These depths generally exceed typical performance for saws with similar blade sizes.

All our disc cutters are built for handling these types of projects. The choice of cutter depends on the size of your project, how regularly you will use the saw and whether you are a tradesperson or DIYer.

The R230DCT is ideal for a home DIY project, cutting paving slabs and patio stone. Its our smallest and lightest disc cutter, but has a powerful 2000W and gives a 90mm max cutting depth.
For regular trade use, the R300DCT+ offers deeper cuts, a more powerful motor, and water suppression making it faster and more efficient for larger jobs.

It is common for inexperienced users to try to use their weight to push the blade through the material they are cutting. This will lead to overheating the blade, damaging the cutting surface and potentially damage to the saw. When cutting the correct procedure is to gently feed the blade of the saw into the material and let its abrasive action do the work with only gentle pressure applied.

Evolution's Electric Disc Cutters can slice through a wide range of masonry materials, including bricks, blocks, paving slabs, concrete, roof tiles, decorative stone, sandstone, and even harder quartz-based stone. However, they are not suitable for cutting high-fired porcelain tiles and other glazed ceramics due to their segmented blade design.

Gasoline-powered Disc Cutters burn fuel, which can have a negative impact on the environment. In contrast, Evolution's Electric Disc Cutters offer a more environmentally friendly solution, making them an excellent choice for tradespeople who are conscious of emissions. Additionally, they are more cost-effective to operate.

Unlike most traditional Disc Cutters that rely on gasoline, Evolution's Disc Cutters are powered by electricity. This sets them apart as a quieter yet still highly powerful alternative to conventional Disc Cutters.

Using a Disc Cutter is relatively easy when you have the right knowledge, experience, and control. Both DIY enthusiasts and professionals can effectively use a Disc Cutter with the proper guidance. However, it's essential to be aware of safety concerns due to the exposed blade. Always consult the manufacturer's instructions and seek guidance from someone more experienced if you have any doubts. Evolution is always available to provide assistance.

A Disc Cutter is a specialized saw designed for cutting hard materials such as concrete, tile, and metal. Typically handheld, these tools have been a favorite among tradespeople for decades because of their ability to cut through tough materials with relative ease.
