Dremel EZ545 1-1/2-Inch EZ Lock Diamond Wheel

by Dremel

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Dremel EZ lock is the fastest and easiest way to change mandrel-mounted accessories. The patented one-piece mandrel design means that no screw is needed to hold the cut-off wheels in place which means no more screw to lose and no more wrench to tighten. The new EZ lock cut-off wheels last two times longer than current cut-off wheels. The new system even makes it easy to change wheels while you're wearing work gloves. Dremel EZ lock cut-off wheels are labeled for easy identification and can be used for cutting metal conduit and PVC piping, reslotting screw heads and removing rusty nail heads.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cuts tile with no problem, September 14, 2009

I had some tile already laid, and I needed to make a precision cut so I could breakup and remove a section of it. I ordered this diamond blade, along with the EZ402 EZ Lock Mandrel, because of its wider diameter. I thought the larger size would make it easier, and I was right. The blade worked fine. I've also used it to cut through two metal brackets.

The EZ Lock mandrel system is okay. It provides easier switching of blades and attachments. But it does allow some play in the position of the blade during cutting. The spring-loaded mandrel locks the blade from coming off the end of the post, but it does allow the blade to push down the post toward the motor. So when you're cutting, you just need to be careful not to twist the orientation of the dremel tool out of alignment with your cut. It was nothing that prevented me from doing the job.

The EZ Lock system is fantastic. No more screwing and unscrewing that tiny screw - no more wasted time! The diamond grit cuts through material in nothing flat and gives confidence with a sturdy feel. No fear that the wheel will shatter. I recommend it to anyone who is cutting ceramic or other material requiring a diamond blade.

The only word that comes to mind is...PHENOMENAL! Out of the box will cut through a 1/2 inch of porcelain floor tile with ease. I wish I could have found this beauty earlier. This is going to make cutting circles and odd shapes a breeze. I ended up buying three. What a great wheel!
