Sounds about right, Abacras are a good quality. Dont buy from Aldi or B&Q go to a tool supplier or a tool hire company.
Have you tried the diamond discs? 130's have feeling's as well you know ![]() |

The last one I had was a diamond disc, from a local tool store...but cheap. How long should I expect quality blade to last with continuous use ( and Skip, my mortar isn't that hard otherwise I wouldn't be raking it out.. ![]() Cheers Simon |

trial and error in technique also...tip...washing up liquid on blade every so often can help, brush out 'slots' if clogged
I re-pointed our whole house...bought 20 of the diamond discs (£500) used all but 5, I got 1/2 a days use before changing SKIP https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic83242.html |

Get a Mortar Rake they come in various Ø you can get an adapter to go onto a grinder.
Get the one with 3 or 4 blades. Also get a decent face mask glasses and gloves http://www.transtools.co.uk/construction-t...raker-10mm 130's have feeling's as well you know ![]() |

If you stick to disc definitely recommend Bosch diamond, mine on a small cordless will go through concrete like butter.
Smaller or larger they are great, go for notched too like to link above not a solid disc as they are for finer cutting like tiles etc. ![]() 🇬🇧ðŸ´ó §ó ¢ó ¥ó ®ó §ó ¿ðŸ´ó §ó ¢ó ·ó ¬ó ³ó ¿ðŸ´ó §ó ¢ó ³ó £ó ´ó ¿ðŸ‡®ðŸ‡ªðŸ‡ºðŸ‡¸â›½ï¸ðŸ›¢ï¸âš™ï¸ðŸ§°ðŸ’ª |
