Description
G-Metal Metal Cutting Discs are thin cutting discs for cutting metal. They are fitted to angle grinders and other cut-off tools and are used to cut bar, tube, plate and sections.
Cutting discs of this type are generally bonded abrasive wheels. The workpiece metal, the disc diameter and the tool it is fitted to are the main points in selection.
Key Features and Benefits
Made for cutting metal
The disc is intended for cutting rather than grinding, so it is used on cuts through bar, tube, profile and plate.
Matched to the tool
The disc diameter and bore must fit the angle grinder or cut-off tool, and the correct guard must be in place.
Speed rating
The maximum operating speed of the disc must be at or above the speed of the tool it is used on.
Metal-specific choice
Carbon steel and stainless steel are often cut with different disc types, so the metal should be known at the enquiry stage.
Applications and Use Cases
Metal cutting discs are used for:
- Cutting steel bar, tube and profile in fabrication
- Trimming reinforcement and sections on site
- Maintenance and repair work in workshops and plants
- Cutting stainless steel and other metals where the metal grade allows
Technical Specifications
Key technical considerations when selecting the appropriate metal cutting discs for your application.
| Selection factor | What to consider | Details to confirm when ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Metal being cut | Carbon steel, stainless steel and other metals can call for different disc types. | The metals and grades to be cut |
| Disc diameter and bore | Both must match the angle grinder or cut-off tool, along with the guard. | The tool model and disc size it takes |
| Disc thickness | Thinner discs cut faster with less material loss, while thicker discs are generally more robust for heavy work. | The cutting duty and section thickness |
| Operating speed | The disc speed rating must meet or exceed the tool speed. | The tool speed rating |
| Quantity and use | Disc consumption depends on the volume and thickness of material cut. | Quantities and project schedule |

Frequently Asked Questions
What are metal cutting discs used for?
They are used to cut metal such as bar, tube, plate and structural sections with an angle grinder or similar tool.
Can one disc cut every metal?
Not always. Carbon steel and stainless steel are often cut with different disc types, so say which metal you cut.
How do I know the disc fits my tool?
The disc diameter, bore and speed rating must match the tool and its guard. Send the tool model when you enquire.
What helps match the right cutting disc?
The metal and its thickness, the machine, and the disc diameter and bore it takes.
