Taurus 3 Dichroic Blade Kit #1049

DESCRIPTION

Perfect for cutting thin Dichroic Glass. This blade has the popular slim blade design with a fine diamond grit that will not chip the delicate dichroic finish! Also works well with iridescent coated glass allowing you to form intricate shapes with perfect edges.

Clean edges mean lower temperatures and faster firing times for kiln fired jewellery creating a clean professional look.

Key Features

• Slim oval profile (approximately 0.058″ × 0.072″ including grommets) for intricate cutting with minimal material loss 

• Extra-fine diamond grit targets fragile coatings, leaving smooth edges ideal for glass fusing or kiln work

• Omni-directional cutting—the ring-shaped blade allows cutting in any direction without flipping the piece 

• Blade kit includes two orange groove grommets for secure and stable blade alignment

Usage Tips

• Best for: dichroic, or mirrored glass up to ~¼″ thickness.

• Not suitable for: ceramic tile or thick fused glass (>¼″), which can overload the blade 

• Maintain a gentle cutting speed, allowing the blade to do the work to preserve both blade life (~40–60 hours) and glass finish

The Taurus 3 Dichroic Blade (#1049) is the go-to option for artists working with specialty glass—its fine grit and slim design ensure clean, chip-free cuts that preserve glass coatings and reduce firing time.
