Diamond Wheels / Cut-Off Discs
Diamond Wheels are popular with both precision engineers and jewellers. They have an abrasive coating either fully covering the whole wheel or just on the rim.
Applications for Diamond Wheels:
- Carving & Engraving
- Cutting & Shaping
- Grinding & Sharpening
- Profiling
- Thinning & folding bezel points
Benefits of Using Diamond Wheels:
- Precise and accurate cuts with minimal material loss
- Achieves smooth and uniform finishes
- Create precise contours and shapes with excellent dimensional accuracy
- Suitable for use on an wide variety of materials
- Durable, tough & abrasion resistant
- Cuts precious metals fast and efficiently
- Operates at low temperatures
Best Features of Diamond Wheels:
- Exceptionally strong and abrasion resistant
- Also available on a 3mm (BM)/2.35mm (HP)/1.6mm (FG) spindle, a 20 piece (2.35mm – HP) and 30 piece (3mm – BM) kit as well as diamond wheels / cut-off discs
- Suitable for both hand tools and CNC machining
Suitable Materials for Diamond Wheels:
- All metals, including steel and precious metals
- Plastics
- Ceramics & Glass – It is common practice to use under water to maintain a low temperature and prevent cracking
Diamond Wheels recommended use with:
- Diamond Wheels / Cut-Off Discs work with a pendant motor, micromotor, air tool or hobby tool. – View our collection of machines here
- They are often used in CNC machining to achieve automated deburring, cutting and finishing
- Tools may vary, so we recommend checking which spindle size your particular tool takes
