Applications
Choose Vetro for glass-tile installation or glass fabrication where edge quality matters. The 4-3/8-inch WG0438 fits the Alpha AWS-110 wet stone cutter for portable work; the 7- and 10-inch versions are listed for tile saws.
Selection and Use
- Match blade diameter, arbor and maximum RPM to the machine using the model specifications.
- Use a slow, consistent feed rather than forcing the blade. Alpha’s linked instructions explain how this helps minimize edge chipping.
- Keep the cut wet and follow the power tool’s operating instructions.
