Cutting & Grinding Discs

Description

The size of the cutting disc can vary depending on the specific application and the tool being used. Common sizes include 4-inch, 4.5-inch, 5-inch, 6-inch, and 7-inch diameter discs. The thickness of the disc can also vary, with thinner discs typically being used for cutting sheet metal and thicker discs being used for cutting thicker materials such as concrete or steel.

The speed of the cutting disc is an important factor to consider when using it for cutting. The maximum safe operating speed is usually printed on the disc itself and should not be exceeded. Exceeding the maximum speed can cause the disc to fail, potentially resulting in injury to the operator.

It is important to select the right type and size of cutting disc for the specific material and application, as using the wrong type of disc can result in damage to the disc, the tool, or the material being worked on. Additionally, it is important to follow proper safety procedures when using cutting discs, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and gloves, and ensuring that the tool and disc are properly secured and used at the appropriate speed and angle.
