The Marcrist Mi850 is a universal diamond cutting blade designed to cut faster through a wider range of materials than most blades of this type. Whether you are cutting concrete, granite, natural stone, iron, or steel on site, the Mi850 handles all of it from one blade. For anyone who regularly changes blades to suit different materials, that alone saves meaningful time across a working day.
The Mi850 combines real diamond for cutting speed with synthetic diamond for longevity. The result is a blade that does not force you to choose between a fast cut and a long service life. Titanium-coated diamonds help the blade stay cool during cutting and maintain a self-sharpening edge, which means performance holds up through extended use rather than degrading quickly after the first hour.
Mi850 M-Segment Technology: What It Actually Does
Marcrist’s patented M-segment design improves airflow through the blade during cutting. Better airflow means more efficient debris removal from the cut line, which in turn produces better cooling and reduces heat buildup at the segment. The practical effect is a cleaner cut, less drag, and a blade that keeps performing when others have started to struggle. Combined with the noise suppression built into the armoured core, the Mi850 also runs noticeably quieter than a standard diamond blade of comparable size.
The armoured centre is a patented feature that adds strength well beyond what you would expect from a standard hardened core. The core is precision engineered, hardened, ground, balanced, and tensioned before leaving the factory. On site, this translates to less vibration, a smoother cut, and more confidence when pushing the blade through dense or abrasive material.
Double Laser Welded Segments
The 10mm segments are double laser welded to the core, which is the most reliable bonding method available for diamond blades. Single-weld blades can shed segments under load; double welding significantly reduces that risk. Marcrist diamond products comply with all known safety standards worldwide, so the Mi850 is approved for use wherever these safety requirements apply.
Available in a full range of sizes from 115mm through to 400mm, the Mi850 suits angle grinders, cut-off saws, and larger disc cutters depending on the diameter selected. This makes it practical across most trades: groundworkers, concreters, bricklayers, roofers, and steel fixers can all run the same blade on their existing machines.
The cost-per-cut argument for the Mi850 is straightforward. A faster diamond cutting blade means fewer cuts abandoned halfway, less time per job, and fewer blade changes across a shift. The Mi850 is not the cheapest blade upfront, but it consistently returns its cost in labour savings before it needs replacing.
Pro Tip: When cutting steel with the Mi850, let the blade find its speed before contacting the material and keep forward pressure steady rather than forcing it, as consistent light pressure extends segment life significantly on ferrous materials.
The Marcrist Mi850 is used across groundworks, civils, construction, and general building trades wherever multiple materials need to be cut on the same job. It handles concrete products, reinforced concrete, granite, natural stone, iron, and steel without needing a blade change between materials. Groundworkers use it for cutting kerbs, slabs, and reinforced sections. Builders use it for block, brick, and concrete lintel cuts. Steel fixers and fabricators use it for cutting bar and section on site.
The range of available sizes makes the Mi850 suitable for handheld angle grinders at the smaller diameters and for floor saws or large disc cutters at 300mm and above. It is equally at home on a quick freehand cut or mounted in a guide for precise scored work.

Not suitable for: The Mi850 is not designed for wet cutting applications or use on a wall chaser. Always check the blade diameter and bore size match your machine before fitting.
Fit the correct diameter Mi850 to your angle grinder, disc cutter, or floor saw, ensuring the bore size matches the machine spindle and all guard and flange fittings are secure. Allow the blade to reach full running speed before contacting the material.
Apply steady, consistent forward pressure rather than forcing the cut. The M-segment design and self-sharpening diamond edge do the work; excessive pressure increases heat and reduces segment life. For straight cuts, a guide or fence will improve accuracy and reduce blade wear from side loading.
Allow the blade to cool between extended cuts, particularly on steel. The titanium coating aids cooling, but even so, pausing briefly between long passes on ferrous materials will extend blade life noticeably.
Select the correct blade diameter and bore size for your machine before fitting
Fit the Mi850 securely with all flanges and guards in place, following the machine manufacturer's instructions
Start the machine and allow the blade to reach full running speed before approaching the material
Begin the cut with light, controlled contact and increase forward pressure steadily once the blade has scored the surface
Maintain consistent forward pressure throughout the cut rather than forcing or rocking the blade
Allow the blade to cool between extended cuts, especially when cutting steel or reinforced concrete
Inspect the blade periodically for segment condition, particularly after cutting abrasive materials such as granite
Can the Marcrist Mi850 cut both steel and concrete on the same job without swapping blades?
Yes. The Mi850 is a genuine universal blade designed to cut building materials, concrete, natural stone, iron, and steel without a blade change. The combination of real and synthetic diamond, along with the M-segment design, makes it perform across all of these materials from one blade.
What sizes are available and which machines do they fit?
The Mi850 is available from 115mm up to 400mm in diameter, with bore options including 20mm, 22.2mm, 25.4mm, 25mm, and 30mm depending on the size. Smaller diameters suit angle grinders; larger sizes from 300mm upward are for disc cutters and floor saws. Always confirm the bore size matches your machine spindle before ordering.
What does double laser welding mean and why does it matter?
Double laser welding bonds the diamond segments to the steel core using two passes of the laser rather than one. This produces a stronger, more secure joint between the segment and the core. On site, this reduces the risk of segment loss under load, which is both a performance issue and a safety concern with inferior blades.
The Marcrist Mi850 uses a combination of natural and synthetic diamond in its segments, with titanium coating applied to the diamonds to promote self-cooling and maintain a self-sharpening cutting profile. The 10mm segments are double laser welded to a precision-engineered core that is hardened, ground, balanced, and tensioned. The patented armoured centre adds structural strength, while the patented M-segment geometry improves airflow and debris clearance during cutting. The blade complies with all known international safety standards for diamond cutting tools.
