What Is a Cutoff Wheel?
A cutoff wheel is a tool used for cutting hard materials such as metal or concrete.
Cutoff wheels find applications primarily on construction sites, metalworking factories, automotive repair shops, and various cutting tasks involving different materials. The operating principle involves a disc-shaped blade rotating at high speed, making contact with the material to perform the cutting. There are different types based on blade material and tooth configuration, requiring the selection of an appropriate one for materials like metal or concrete.
Cutoff wheels come in various types distinguished by different diameters, tooth configurations, and materials. For instance, options with thin blades or segmented teeth allow for tailored choices based on specific applications. In situations where accessing curved or intricate areas is challenging, specialized blade shapes may also be employed.
