Cutting Wheel for Ferrous and Stainless Metals
The Tuff Stuff 4MET045 is a thin Type 1 cutting wheel built for fast cuts through steel, angle iron, pipe, tubing and rebar. Its 4 inch diameter and .045 inch thickness suit angle grinders with a 5/8 inch arbor. It handles both ferrous and stainless materials in fabrication and maintenance tasks.
Build Fit and Clearance
The wheel mounts directly on compatible angle grinders using the 5/8 inch arbor hole, requiring no adapters or flange modifications. Its thin profile reduces material loss and cutting resistance, freeing up motor torque for quicker passes. The 19000 max RPM rating demands a grinder that does not exceed this speed for safe operation.
Suited Users and Limits
This wheel suits metalworkers, fabricators and maintenance crews needing rapid, clean cuts in steel and stainless stock. It is not for buyers who need grinding or deburring capability, nor for tools that run above the rated speed. Users cutting non-ferrous metals, masonry or wood should select a wheel specified for those materials.
