This 125mm metal cutting disc is for your 5-inch angle grinder. Its thin design lets you make quick, precise cuts through different metals. The disc is resin-bonded and has fiberglass reinforcement. This gives it stability and safety when cutting ferrous metals like steel and iron. Features and Benefits
- Thin 1mm Profile - The slim design of this 125mm x 1mm metal cutting disc for angle grinders reduces material loss. This means a cleaner, faster cut.
- Resin-Bonded Construction - This disc is built with abrasive grains and resin. It's specifically for cutting, not grinding, which makes it work well.
- Broad Material Compatibility - It cuts through many common workshop materials. These include stainless steel, iron, rebar, and mild steel.
- Standard Arbor Size - The 22.23mm (7/8") center hole fits most standard 125mm (5") angle grinders. This makes it a useful choice. Applications
- Cutting metal studs, rebar, or angle iron to size for construction projects.
- Slicing through rusted bolts or old exhaust pipes for car repair.
- Making custom brackets or mounts from stainless steel or iron stock.
Ray L. Carter (Stationary/Industrial Disc Sander)
Ray L. Carter is credited with inventing the disc sander in 1900. This 125mm resin bond cut-off wheel is designed for metal and stainless steel cutting applications, making it suitable for industrial disc sanders used for heavy-duty material removal. Industrial disc sanders often operate at speeds around 1725 rpm or 3450 rpm, and this wheel is compatible with such machinery for efficient metal cutting.
Alex A. Clarke (Portable Specialty Sanders)
While this resin bond cut-off wheel is for an angle grinder, it is worth noting Alex A. Clarke's 1904 patent for a disc sander. This 125mm wheel is for cutting metal and stainless steel. It is a key consumable for portable specialty sanders that are used for specific cutting tasks. The wheel’s resin material ensures durability during demanding applications on various metals.
Arthur N. Emmons (Modern Portable Handheld Disc Sander)
Arthur N. Emmons patented a disc sander in 1917, contributing to the development of modern portable handheld disc sanders. This 125mm resin bond cut-off wheel is for angle grinders, a common type of handheld disc sander. It is used for metal cutting and stainless steel cutting. When fitted to an angle grinder, this wheel is designed for precise and controlled material removal.
