Broco Diamond rescue blade is a proven high performance blade for breaching and rescue operations. It offers industry-leading features including a thin double-layer diamond cutting edge that yields quick cut times, an aggressive texture to shred materials typically cut with carbide-tipped blades, and a nickel alloy matrix that secures the diamonds to resist erosion and provide superior wear resistance.

With Broco Diamond blades there is no need to:
- change blades between cutting metal and other materials
- choose between long blade life and fast cutting speed
- compromise high inertial force vs. blade flex and binding
- pay high prices to get top quality
Broco Diamond blades cut steel, concrete, poly-carbonate and more for forced entry. They combine the best elements of the quick wearing abrasive discs and expensive, heavy tungsten carbide edged blades. The double-layer brazed cutting edge assures aggressive cutting on tough materials, long blade life, and smooth performance to reduce fatigue. The blade's light weight means less gyroscopic effect and more control. The diamond electroplated facing protects the core, reduces heat, and prevents binding.
