How long does diamond wire last? As we all know, diamond bead wires can be used to cut stones as well as reinforced concrete. Once the working layer on the surface of the beads on the diamond bead wire is completely consumed, the wire can no longer be used, marking the end of its service life. So, How long does diamond wire last? Is it one day, one week, or one month?

First, let's discuss the service life of the diamond bead wire when cutting stones.

The main factors determining the service life of the diamond bead wire are:

1. The wear resistance of the bead wire formula

2. The hardness of the cutting object

I. Wear Resistance of the Bead Wire Formula

The sharpness and wear resistance of the diamond bead wire are like the two ends of a balance. The higher the sharpness, the faster the cutting speed, but the lower the wear resistance and the shorter the service life. Conversely, if the sharpness is low, the cutting speed is slow, the wear resistance increases, and the service life is extended. My purchasing advice is that if the value of your stone is very high, you should pursue cutting efficiency and quality, and purchase sharp - type bead wires. If the value of your stone is average, you can consider buying bead wires with high wear resistance to reduce your consumable costs.

II. Hardness of the Cutting Object

Generally speaking, the higher the hardness of the stone, the shorter the service life of the bead wire. Different cutting objects have different hardness levels, resulting in different service lives of the bead wire. For example, the hardness of marble is generally lower than that of granite. Therefore, when cutting marble, the service life of the bead wire is generally longer than when cutting granite.

After talking about all this, exactly How long does diamond wire last? Usually, the service life of the bead wire is measured by the number of square meters cut, rather than by the time of use, considering that each customer uses the wire saw machine for a different amount of time each day. As a bead wire manufacturer, our commitment regarding the service life of the bead wire is as follows:

When cutting granite of medium hardness: The guaranteed service life of a 50 - meter - long roll of wire is 450 square meters.

When cutting marble of medium hardness: The guaranteed service life of a 50 - meter - long roll of wire is 750 square meters.

In most cases, the actual cutting result will be greater than this guaranteed value. If the guaranteed value is not reached, we will compensate with some additional wire and adjust the production formula of the wire according to your cutting conditions to ensure that the guaranteed value is reached and exceeded.

Secondly, now let's discuss the service life of the diamond bead wire when cutting reinforced concrete. There are three main factors affecting the service life of the bead wire when cutting reinforced concrete, namely: the thickness of the steel bars, the density of the steel bars, and the grade of the concrete. Here is a reference value. Please note that this is just a reference value, not a guaranteed value.

For cutting reinforced concrete with average steel bar density, medium - thickness steel bars, and a C30 cement grade, a 50 - meter - long roll of wire can cut 100 - 150 square meters.
