Small Diameter Cutting and Snagging Wheels for High-Speed Die Grinders
New small diameter cutting and snagging wheels from Weiler Abrasives increase cutting performance for longer life and faster cutting in metal fabrication and shipbuilding applications.
Posted: March 19, 2019
Designed for long life and fast cutting, the expanded offering of small diameter cutting and snagging wheels for high-speed die grinders from Weiler Abrasives (Cresco, PA) includes Tiger® AO, Tiger Zirc and Tiger Ceramic 2 in to 4 in diameter wheels with ¼ in and 3/8 in arbor hole sizes. These join the Wolverine™ value wheels already offered in this category. The expansion of 38 new wheels provides end users in the metal fabrication and shipbuilding industries with increasing levels of cutting performance to meet their needs. Tiger AO cutting wheels feature an aluminum oxide grain and provide even, sharp, clean cuts along with a hard bond to extend wheel life when cutting steel. Like the Wolverine wheels, Tiger AO wheels are available in thicknesses of .035 in, 1/16 in, 1/8 in and 1/4 in. High-performance Tiger Zirc cutting wheels in .035 in thickness. These wheels feature sharp, aggressive zirconia alumina grains that retain a high cut rate throughout the life of the wheel, making them an ideal choice for cutting steels, including structural and cast iron.
For maximum cutting performance, even on stainless steel and hard-to-grind metals, Tiger Ceramic cutting wheels provide superior life with self-sharpening grains that reduce discoloration by cutting at lower temperatures with less friction and require less effort to use, minimizing operator fatigue. These wheels are available in 1/16 in thickness. Other small diameter wheels include Type 1 Tiger AO and Wolverine AO snagging wheels for die grinders, as well as Type 27 Tiger AO wheels. This expansion of wheels builds on tools for die grinders that include Tiger Bobcat™ Mini Flap Discs, flap wheels, blending discs and wire end brushes.
