Manufacturer The 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cut-Off Wheel features 3M™ Precision-Shaped
Ceramic Grain to bring you an exceptionally fast-cutting and long-lasting
wheel for use on almost all materials, including stainless steel, mild steel,
and aerospace alloys. This cut-off wheel surpasses 3M™ High Performance wheels
in both cut and life to deliver significant gains in productivity. Experience
the power of 3M precision-shaped grain to provide a cool, extra-sharp, quick
cut long after other wheels are consumed. Using Type 27 Cut-Off Wheels Type 27
cut-off wheels are run on a right angle grinder with a wheel guard and have a
depressed center to allow for flush cuts without damaging the surrounding
surface. For safety, cut-off wheels must always be used with a wheel guard
that is compatible with the size of the wheel. The cut-off wheel must have a
maximum operating speed greater than or equal to the maximum speed of the
power tool used. Unlike coated abrasive discs, which shape or sand objects
using the disc surface, cut-off wheels provide perpendicular cuts, using the
outer edge of the wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are typically used for
cutting through metal, for example autobody or marine sheet metal, stainless
steel tubing, exhaust pipes, clamps, and rusted fasteners. Cut-off wheels are
attached to a cut-off wheel tool (sold separately) and must always be used
with a wheel guard for safety. Experience the Powerful Performance of 3M™
Cubitron™ II 3M Cubitron II products have raised the bar for high-performing
abrasives. 3M precision-shaped ceramic grain (PSG) outcuts and outlasts
conventional ceramic industrial abrasives and requires less grinding force to
achieve superior performance. The result is that operators can grind faster
and complete more parts per disc with less muscle-work and fatigue. To create
PSG, 3M engineers started with 3M ceramic abrasive grain and used proprietary
technology to form the grains into triangular structures and electrostatically
orient them on the backing to form sharp peaks that maximize cutting
potential. These peaks slice cleanly through metal like a knife through
butter, rather than gouging or plowing as traditional abrasives do, and
continuously self-sharpen as the points break off. This generates a super-fast
cut and lessens heat build-up due to friction, reducing heat-related stress
cracks and discoloration. PSG also wears evenly, and because the abrasive
itself stays cooler and sharper, Cubitron II products last significantly
longer than their conventional ceramic counterparts, ensuring extended high
performance in production applications. About 3M Abrasive Systems For more
