Some concrete doesn’t play fair, especially the kind that’s been hardened with curing agents. It’s slick. It’s smooth. And it’s tough as nails. That’s where the Syntec Rapida segment comes in.
After concrete is poured, during curing, a membrane forms on the surface of the slab, locking in moisture and creating a high-strength concrete cap. While this is great for durability, its not so great for your diamonds. Regular bonds just glaze over, leaving you with a whole lot of spinning and not much grinding.
But Syntec’s Rapida segment doesn’t back down. It’s been engineered with a revolutionary bond that cuts through even the hardest, densest surfaces. No glazing. No slipping. Just powerful, controlled grinding exactly where you need it.
The Rapida segment is found on cup wheels, and concrete grinder tooling for the most popular grinders in the market. The shape of the segment is also an important factor in it’s cutting strength. The grooves increase contact points on the hardened concrete surface.

Workshop – How To
Are round segments aggressive
Round segments are not aggressive tools. They are used for general preparation and work best on hard concrete. The rounded shape means the segment grinds smoothly instead of digging in. This helps create a more even surface without deep scratches or gouging.
When to use round segments
Choose round segments when the surface is hard and you want steady, controlled grinding without deep scratches.
They are best used on fairly even surfaces with no major chips or high spots, making them ideal for general surface preparation when aggressive cutting is not required.
Can round segments fit my machine
Yes. Round segments are available in multiple mounting options, including Slim Fit, Trapezoid bolt-on, Fast Change, and 2″ grind plugs, making them compatible with most concrete grinding machines.
