Applications

3M™ Silver Depressed Centre Grinding Wheel is our type 27 wheel, designed to deliver an unbeatable combination of performance and value that delivers a fast and consistent cut during grinding and heavy stock removal on stainless steel, mild steel, aerospace alloys and more.

For aggressive grinding applications such as beveling, flame cut smoothing, weld grinding and edge work on a variety of metals use 3M™ Silver Depressed Centre Grinding Wheel. The wheel features our Precision Shaped Grain, which continually fractures into super-sharp points and edges that slice cleanly through metal, rather than gouging or ploughing as traditional abrasives do. This helps it to last significantly longer than conventional ceramic grain abrasives while maintaining a high cut-rate over its life. Use with tools and accessories designed for depressed center grinding wheels. For safety, always use on a tool with an approved guard, as per DIN EN 12413 for Bonded Abrasives.

Grinding and cut-off discs are designed to be fitted to angle grinders. Handheld angle grinders are a highly versatile tool, and are ideal for machining metal. These cut off discs are great for weld removals and cutting through metals like stainless steel, mild steel, aerospace alloys and more. This could occur in industries such as farm and construction, automotive, ship and boat building, aerospace, metal fabrication.

Would you be able to use these discs on wood?

These 3M Silver discs are not recommended to be used on wood, and are designed to be used on metals.

What's the difference between 3M™ Silver Cut Off Discs and 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cut Off Discs?
3M™ Cubitron™ II Cut Off Discs offer superior qualities, with faster cut rate and longer life. These are available from RS.

What safety requirements should I observe?

When grinding metal or sanding, appropriate personal protection equipment should be worn. Gloves, eye protection and even respiratory protection are essential PPE for general purpose grinding and polishing applications.

For safe operation of an angle grinder, be sure you have participated in appropriate training and are aware of all safety advice relevant to the material you are working on.
