Cutting Wheels

Cut-off wheels, in contrast to grinding wheels, make precise, 90-degree cuts rather than taking off large chunks of material from a workpiece using an abrasive. Used with die and angle grinders, circular, chop, and portable saws. Cut-off wheels work by positioning the wheel over the workpiece. The abrasive grain that the wheel is constructed with begins to cut chips from the surface of the workpiece. Before the edges of the cut-off abrasive grain become dull, they have torn away from the wheel bond. allowing other abrasive grains to come to come forward.
