1/4 Double PCD Segments for Concrete Coating Removal
R689.31
The 1/4 Double PCD Segment is a professional diamond grinding and coating-removal tool designed for aggressive removal of surface coatings from concrete floors. Featuring two 1/4 PCD segments, this tooling is designed to scrape and tear coatings from the surface rather than conventional grinding.
These PCD segments are particularly effective for removing urethane, epoxy, mastics, glue, rubber, fibreglass linings, pool coatings, waterproofing membranes, carpet adhesives and vinyl adhesives.
Our 1/4 Double PCD Segment is intended for compatible floor-grinding machines and is designed for coating-removal applications from approximately 200 microns up to 2 mm thick.
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| 95/1/004 | DBL ¼ PCD DIAMOND SCRAPER (LEFT ROTATION) |
| 95/1/004R | DBL ¼ PCD DIAMOND SCRAPER (RIGHT ROTATION) |
A PCD segment is a cutting and scraping element made using polycrystalline diamond. Unlike conventional diamond grinding segments that primarily grind the surface, PCD tooling is designed to aggressively scrape and tear coatings away from the substrate.
This makes PCD segments particularly useful for removing difficult floor coatings and residues that can clog or load conventional diamond tooling.
The 1/4 Double PCD Segment combines two PCD cutting elements in one tooling configuration, providing an aggressive solution for coating-removal applications on compatible floor-grinding equipment.

What is a 1/4 Double PCD segment?
A 1/4 Double PCD segment is a floor-grinding and coating-removal tool featuring two 1/4 PCD cutting elements. It is designed for aggressive removal of compatible floor coatings and other difficult surface materials.
What is a PCD segment used for?
PCD segments are primarily used for aggressive removal of floor coatings, adhesives, mastics and other materials that can clog or load conventional diamond grinding tools.
What can a Double 1/4 PCD segment remove?
The Double 1/4 PCD segment is specified for removing a range of coatings and bonded materials, including urethanes, epoxy, mastics, glue and rubber. It can also be used for fibreglass linings, pool coatings, waterproofing membranes, carpet adhesives and vinyl adhesives.
What coating thickness can the 1/4 Double PCD remove?
The 1/4 Double PCD segment is specified for coating-removal applications involving coatings approximately 200 microns to 2 mm thick.
Does the Double 1/4 PCD fit left-rotation machines?
Yes. The Double 1/4 PCD configuration is specified for use with machines operating in a left-rotation direction. Always check the machine and segment specifications before installation.
What is the difference between PCD and diamond grinding segments?
PCD segments are designed to aggressively scrape and tear coatings away from the surface, whereas conventional diamond segments primarily grind the substrate. PCD tooling is therefore particularly useful for aggressive coating, adhesive and residue removal.
Is PCD suitable for epoxy removal?
Yes. PCD tooling is well suited to many epoxy coating-removal applications. The appropriate PCD configuration should be selected according to the coating thickness, substrate and machine being used.
Can PCD segments remove adhesive?
Yes. PCD tooling is particularly effective for removing difficult adhesive residues, including carpet adhesives and vinyl adhesives.
Are PCD segments used for concrete polishing?
PCD tooling is primarily designed for aggressive coating and adhesive removal rather than fine concrete polishing. Conventional diamond tooling is generally used for progressive concrete grinding, honing and polishing.
How do I choose the correct PCD segment?
Before ordering, check the machine's mounting system, rotation direction, PCD configuration, coating thickness and the type of material being removed. Selecting the correct segment configuration helps ensure compatibility and effective coating removal.
| Feature | PCD Segments | Conventional Diamond Segments |
|---|---|---|
| Primary action | Scraping / tearing | Grinding |
| Coating removal | Excellent | Application dependent |
| Adhesive removal | Excellent | Can load / clog |
| Epoxy removal | Excellent for suitable coatings | Suitable for grinding applications |
| Clogging resistance | High | Depends on coating and tooling |
| Heat build-up | Lower in suitable coating-removal applications | Can increase when tooling loads |
| Best suited to | Coating and adhesive removal | Concrete grinding and surface preparation |
| Concrete polishing | Not the primary purpose | Better suited to progressive grinding / polishing |
