Description
Technical Parameters
PCD Diamond Grinding Shoes – Polycrystalline Diamond "scrapes" off coatings. No clogging, no slowdown. The ultimate solution for epoxy, adhesive, and thick coating removal.
This is the most critical question in PCD grinding shoe procurement. Wrong tool = either won't cut or clogs and stops.
Direct comparison:
| Feature | Standard Diamond Shoes | PCD Grinding Shoes (ours) |
|---|---|---|
| Working principle | Grinding | Scraping |
| Best for | Concrete leveling, medium grinding | Coating removal, surface prep |
| Removal efficiency | Medium | Extremely high |
| Clogging risk | High (coatings melt and stick) | None (doesn't clog) |
| Heat generation | High | Low |
| Life | Medium | Longer |
| Price | Lower | Higher |
| Position in process | Middle / later stages | First step |
Quick guide:
Stripping epoxy, adhesives, paint, VCT mastic, elastic coatings → PCD grinding shoes
Removing thin coatings (<1mm) or concrete leveling → standard diamond shoes
Removing thick coatings (1-6mm) → PCD grinding shoes are the only choice
What PCD grinding shoes remove:
Epoxy floor coatings (1-6mm thick)
Polyurethane coatings, MMA
Paint, varnish
Adhesives, VCT mastic, asphalt adhesive
Elastic coatings, thick rubber materials
Glue, resin, acrylic
Can PCD grinding shoes grind concrete?
Yes, but it's not their primary purpose. PCD shoes are designed for coating removal and surface preparation, not fine concrete grinding. During coating removal, PCD shoes will also take off a thin layer of concrete surface – this is to open up a clean surface for subsequent work, not for leveling.
Quick guide:
Removing coatings → PCD grinding shoes
Removing coatings and coarse grinding concrete surface → PCD grinding shoes (remove coatings first, then switch to diamond shoes for leveling)
Grinding concrete only, no coatings → standard diamond grinding shoes.
When standard diamond grinding shoes remove coatings, friction generates high heat – coatings (especially epoxy and adhesives) melt and stick to the shoe surface. The shoe slows down and eventually stops cutting entirely – must stop and clean.
Why doesn't PCD clog?
① Different working principle: PCD scrapes rather than grinds. It "peels" coatings off like a blade, rather than melting them through friction heat.
② Self‑sharpening: PCD is made of tiny diamond crystals – during use, crystals constantly fracture to expose fresh sharp edges, maintaining cutting ability.
③ Doesn't stick: PCD's scraping action doesn't generate the high heat that melts coatings – coating fragments fall off directly, not sticking to the shoe surface.
Bottom line: PCD grinding shoes don't clog, don't require frequent cleaning – continuous operation.
Applications & Advantages
PCD Grinding Shoes for grinding concrete floors, there are lots of different brands of floor grinders like HTC, Lavina, Klindex, Husqvarna,PHX etc. Diaflex offers different kinds of PCD Grinding Shoes to suit different types of floor grinders.
PCD Grinding Shoes mainly used for removing different floor coatings, such as epoxy, glue, resin, etc. and its capable for thick coatings. If the shoes with extra segments except the PCD, then it also can do the coarse grinding and make the floor prepared for next grinding step.
Some Knowledge About PCD
Sometimes you will need to get rid of epoxy/glue flooring from the room, basement, or garage, to exchange the color or replace because of the abrasion . PCD tool is the suitable choice to fulfill the task. PCD tools are designed for aggressive coating removals of epoxy, glue, resin, etc. The main material of PCD (Polycrystalline Diamond) comes with a PCD top and tungsten carbide substrate. The high abrasive resistance makes it extremely useful for floor coating removals.
Notes: Just make sure the rotary direction of your floor grinders when choose the PCD grinding shoes because it has two direction for work(Clockwise and Counterclockwise).
