Ultra-Thin Metal Cutting Wheel
This 4-1/2 inch ultra-thin cutting wheel is built for fast cutting of ferrous and stainless steel. It handles steel, angle iron, pipe, tubing and rebar with a maximum RPM rating of 13,280. The Type 1 arbor fits 7/8 inch spindles on compatible angle grinders. It is designed for metal fabrication and maintenance tasks requiring clean, quick cuts.
.040 Inch Thickness For Speed
The .040 inch thickness reduces material resistance for faster cutting speed and less heat buildup. This thin profile minimises burr formation on stainless and ferrous metals, reducing secondary finishing work. The wheel is sold individually so users can purchase the exact quantity needed for a specific job. It is not suited for cutting masonry, concrete or non-ferrous metals like aluminium.

Questions about this item
How often will the 0.040 inch thick cutting wheel need to be replaced?
The ultra-thin 0.040 inch wheel wears faster than thicker discs; replace it once the diameter shrinks noticeably or the edge chips, which occurs after fewer cuts than standard wheels.
What limit appears first during continuous cutting at the 13,280 RPM rating?
Sustained high-speed cutting generates heat that can soften the bond; the wheel will glaze or lose cutting speed before reaching its maximum RPM safety limit.
