ROC Abrasives: Tuck Pointing Blades – Precision Mortar Removal Made Easy

Whether you're restoring a historic façade, prepping a fireplace, or fixing erosion-prone mortar joints, the right tuck pointing blades can make all the difference. From unwavering precision to dust-free efficiency, ROC Abrasives' tuck pointing blades deliver exceptional performance on masonry, concrete, and brick surfaces. In this guide, we’ll deep dive into what sets ROC’s blades apart, where they excel, and how to put them to work on your next project.

What Are Tuck Pointing Blades and Why ROC Leads the Market?

Tuck pointing blades are specialized diamond-tipped discs designed to clean and carve mortar joints and cracks without damaging adjacent masonry. Unlike general-purpose blades, tuck pointing variants typically feature narrow, precision segments to achieve clean grooves with minimal collateral impact—essential for fine restoration work.

ROC Abrasives, based in Florida, offers both standard and premium “Sandwich” Turbo Double-Tuck blades tailored specifically for tuck pointing and crack-chasing applications. These blades are available in a wide variety of sizes (4″, 4.5″, 5″, and 7″) and arbor configurations—making them compatible with most angle grinders. What sets ROC’s blades apart is their unique double-sandwich design: two diamond-wrapped segments bridged by steel material, delivering efficient joint cleaning in a single pass .
