Grinding Wheel Selection Guide

Bonded Abrasive Grinding Wheels: Made of abrasive particles bonded together with various materials like resin, ceramic, or rubber. They are versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications.

Diamond Grinding Wheels: Incorporate synthetic diamond grains for superior hardness and durability. Ideal for grinding hard metals and achieving precision finishes.

Cutoff Grinding Wheels: Designed for cutting through metal quickly and efficiently. They feature a thin profile for precision cutting and are commonly used for trimming welds or removing excess material.

Key Features of Cutting Discs

Material Composition: Cutting discs are typically composed of abrasive particles bonded together with a resin or other binding agent, ensuring durability and precision.

Thickness: Thinner cutting discs offer greater precision and produce less material waste, while thicker discs provide added stability for heavy-duty cutting tasks.

Diameter: Cutting discs come in various diameters to accommodate different cutting depths and workpiece sizes.

Arbor Size: Ensure compatibility between the cutting disc’s arbor size and your cutting tool’s spindle for proper installation and safety.

Cutting Disc Selection Guide

Material Compatibility: Choose cutting discs specifically designed for the type of metal you are cutting, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.

Cutting Speed: Consider the speed at which you need to cut and select a cutting disc with the appropriate specifications to meet your requirements.

Application: Different cutting discs are suited for various applications, such as thin sheet metal cutting, pipe cutting, or heavy structural steel cutting. Choose the right disc for your specific task.

Safety Features: Prioritize cutting discs with reinforced designs and safety features to minimize the risk of breakage or injury during use.

Sanding Disc Selection Guide

Sanding Disc Grits:

Coarse Grits (40-80): Ideal for heavy material removal and rough shaping of metal surfaces.

Medium Grits (100-180): Suitable for intermediate sanding and refining surfaces after coarse grit sanding.

Fine Grits (220-600): Used for finishing and polishing metal surfaces, producing smooth and refined results.

Sanding Disc Materials:

Aluminum Oxide: Versatile and widely used for general-purpose sanding on various metals, offering durability and consistent performance.

Zirconia Alumina: Known for its exceptional durability and aggressive cutting action, making it suitable for heavy-duty metal sanding applications.

Silicon Carbide: Preferred for sanding non-ferrous metals like aluminum and brass due to its fast-cutting and self-sharpening properties.

Ceramic Alumina: Provides high-performance grinding and sanding on hard metals like stainless steel and alloys, offering extended lifespan and fast material removal.
