Shoxx has now broadened its range of diamond tools designed for professionals in the building and public works sectors. This technological revolution has more than proved itself since the launch of the Shoxx X20 blade. The range now has additional new products, including the Shoxx G13 blade and a series of surfacing cup wheels: the Z U5, the Z A5 and the C E5.

Designed for cutting hard materials, including granite, the Shoxx G13 blade cuts quickly and accurately without spalling. Like all the tools in the range, it uses the unique Shoxx technology. This process consists of manufacturing segments using extremely strong bonding materials developed in the automotive industry. The Shoxx G13 also has the special feature of guaranteeing a 20% reduction in vibration compared with a standard blade. This technological feat is achieved through the trapezoid shape of the segments and the quantity used (16 segments compared with 15 in a standard blade).

When applied to surfacing cup wheels, the Shoxx technique provides a 30% higher yield compared with standard cup wheels. A range of three Shoxx cup wheels has been developed: the Z U5, the Z A5 and the C E5. Made using segments welded by electro-induction, these cup wheels ensure minimum vibration and exceptional stability during sanding. They are thus particularly effective with concrete, building materials, abrasive cements, epoxy resins, etc. This process means that users can make considerable savings, thanks to the tools’ exceptionally long life. “Two in one” segments have been developed to provide a surfacing cup wheel that is efficient on all types of surfaces. These segments have the special feature of combining cutting edges with layers of polycrystalline diamond. In addition, the research scientists in the Shoxx technology center have devised tear-shaped evacuation systems which guarantee better ventilation and efficient cooling of the metal.

These innovative tools are now added to a range that also includes a blade well-known for its unique characteristics: the Shoxx X20. Launched in 2007, this diamond tool stands out for its unrivalled performances, which have made the diamond blade the fastest in the market. Backed up by its technological expertise, the Shoxx range will soon include further high-tech diamond tools designed to meet the needs of professionals in every way.
