Description
Samedia universal blades, also called general-purpose blades, are designed to cut a wide range of building materials with one blade, from marble to SML pipes. They suit work where the material changes from cut to cut and a blade change for each one is not practical.
The range includes several types of blade:
- Universal blades for general cutting of concrete products, brickwork and other building materials.
- Tuck-point blades for cutting out hard and abrasive mortar joints.
- Blades for angle grinders and wall chasers, made for cutting chases in walls.
They are available in the SHOXX, MASTER and TECHNIC ranges. Versatility is relative: no single blade is suited to every material, and each blade has its own list of suitable materials.
Key Features and Benefits
One blade for mixed materials
Universal blades cover concrete products, brickwork, roof tiles and, in many cases, other construction materials. This reduces blade changes on sites where the work varies.
Blades for specific tasks
Tuck-point blades are made for cutting out joints, and blades for wall chasers are made to cut chases for services, so they are not interchangeable with a general-purpose blade.
A choice of ranges
SHOXX universal blades offer high-end versatility with forged segments, MASTER blades are premium quality, and TECHNIC blades give a professional entry point. Some blades are sold in packs of ten, which suits teams that use many blades.
Different segment designs
Segment heights and rim designs differ by blade, so the choice affects cutting speed and blade life as well as which materials the blade handles best.
Applications and Use Cases
General-purpose blades are used for:
- Building materials: concrete products, brickwork and bricks, and roof tiles.
- Wall chasing: cutting chases with angle grinders and wall chasers.
- Pointing and joint removal: cutting out mortar joints with tuck-point blades.
- Stone: natural stone, including marble, with selected blades.
Which of these a blade can do depends on the blade.
Technical Specifications
| Blade type | Intended for |
|---|---|
| Universal blade | Cutting several building materials with one blade |
| Tuck-point blade | Cutting out mortar joints; hard and abrasive cement joints in selected blades |
| Wall chaser blade | Cutting chases with angle grinders and wall chasers |
When selecting a general-purpose blade, consider:
- the materials you cut most often
- the machine type, blade diameter and bore
- for tuck-point blades, the joint width to be cut
- the quality range, and whether speed or blade life matters more

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a general-purpose blade cut anything?
No. Universal blades are designed for a wide range of building materials, but each blade has its own material list. Check the blade against your material.
What is a tuck-point blade?
A blade made for cutting out mortar joints, used before repointing. Some Samedia tuck-point blades are suited to hard and abrasive cement joints.
Are general-purpose blades the same as concrete blades?
No. Concrete blades are built for concrete and reinforced concrete. General-purpose blades prioritise versatility across several materials.
Can they be used for wall chasing?
Use blades made for wall chasers and angle grinders for chasing. They are a separate type within the range.
