105x1x16mm Jekkir Abrasive cutting grinding discs for metal

Often cutting discs, also known as cut-off wheels, are made from a solid abrasive disc. These discs are often used for cutting metal; they are composed of an abrasive mix of grit and adhesive that is formed into a thin, rigid disc with fiber webbing running through it for strength. Some discs used for cutting ceramic tile or stone are made from a solid disc with an edge coated with diamond grit. The most common size for these cutting wheels is 4-1/2 inches in diameter; however they can range from 2 to 16 inches in diameter with a thickness range from .045 in. to .125 in. Type 1 discs are flat, and type 27 discs have a raised hub. These wheels are strong but are not immune to breaking. If a cutting wheel breaks while in use, fragments could injure the operator or nearby co-workers. To avoid breaking cutting discs, never exceed the maximum speed (RPM) specified on the disc, and do not overload the disc by cutting with excess force or jamming the wheel into your workpiece.
