Diamond Cutting Disc 230 x 22.23 mm Turbo for Dry Cutting — Makita A-88967, for Soft Materials

Makita A-88967 is a 230 x 22.23 mm turbo diamond cutting disc engineered for dry cutting of soft construction materials. The turbo segment profile balances cutting speed and surface finish, making it suitable for tile, brick and lightweight block applications. Designed for angle grinders with a 22.23 mm bore, the blade’s construction focuses on efficient material removal while maintaining blade stability during straight cuts and shallow profiles.

Advantages

The turbo diamond segment provides faster cutting than standard continuous rims while delivering a cleaner edge on softer substances. The 230 mm diameter gives a wider cutting depth range compared with smaller discs, and the reinforced core reduces vibration for improved user control. Dry-cut compatibility eliminates the need for wet setups in many on-site tasks, simplifying workflow and reducing preparation time.

Suitable for

• Cutting ceramic and porcelain tiles
• Trimming clay and concrete bricks
• Working with aerated or lightweight concrete blocks
• On-site dry cutting where water use is impractical

Key specifications

• Diameter: 230 mm
• Bore size: 22.23 mm
• Segment type: turbo diamond profile
• Intended use: dry cutting of soft construction materials
• Compatible tool: angle grinders with matching bore

How to use

Install the disc on an angle grinder with a 22.23 mm arbor according to the grinder manufacturer’s instructions and ensure the disc rotation direction matches the arrow on the blade. Secure the wheel guard and use recommended personal protective equipment including eye, ear and respiratory protection. Operate the grinder at the specified maximum speed for the disc, make steady straight cuts without applying excessive force, and allow the blade to do the work to avoid overheating. Periodically inspect the disc for wear or damage and replace it when diamond exposure or loss of cutting efficiency is evident.

Usage recommendations

For best results on tiles and lightweight masonry, use steady feed rates and avoid sudden lateral pressure. When cutting long pieces, make several shallower passes rather than forcing one deep cut. Store the disc in a dry place and avoid impacts to the segments to preserve integrity and cutting performance.
