Tomax Ceramic Thin Precision Cutting Disc 180x1.4x1.8x22 mm

Tomax Ceramic Thin Precision Cutting Disc 180x1.4x22 mm;

The Tomax Ceramic Thin Precision Cutting Disc (180x1.4x22 mm) model is a high-performance abrasive disc designed for use with larger angle grinders. This disc is manufactured to provide fast cutting speed, minimal burr formation, and low heat transfer for metals, especially stainless steel (Inox) materials. Its 180 mm diameter and ultra-thin 1.4 mm cutting thickness offer users maximum efficiency and precision.

Note: The specified thickness value of 1.4x1.8 mm indicates that the cutting thickness of the disc is 1.4 mm, while 1.8 mm may refer to the hub or reinforcement thickness. The product description emphasizes the 1.4 mm thickness, which determines the primary cutting precision.

User Information and Technical Specifications

This disc targets professionals seeking precision and speed even in large-diameter cutting applications:

Dimensions:

Diameter (180 mm): A standard diameter compatible with large-sized angle grinders. It allows for cutting larger profiles and pipes in a single pass.

Thickness (1.4 mm): Categorized among the thinnest discs on the market. Its thin structure ensures minimal material loss (kerf) during cutting and significantly reduces friction, preventing excessive material overheating.

Bore Diameter (22 mm): Compatible with the spindle diameter of all standard 180 mm angle grinders.

Target Users:

Structural Steel Erectors: Those who need to cut thicker and larger profiles quickly and cleanly.

Stainless Steel Specialists: Welders aiming to minimize heat-induced discoloration and material degradation in Inox materials.

Industrial Manufacturing: Serial production workshops requiring high cutting quality and speed.

Efficiency: Thanks to the combination of a thin profile, large diameter advantage, and ceramic abrasive, the cutting process is shorter, and the overall lifespan of the disc is longer compared to standard discs.

Application Area and Industries Used

This disc is preferred for cutting large and medium-sized metals, especially when a clean finish is required:

Primary Application Areas:

Large Metal Profile Cutting: The 180 mm diameter allows for cutting larger metal pipes, box sections, and L-profiles with fewer movements.

Stainless Steel (Inox) and Acid-Resistant Steels: Preservation of material structure by preventing heat generation in sensitive alloys.

Batch Cutting Operations: Its thin structure provides high cutting speed, saving time in mass production.

Industries Used:

Metalworking and Heavy Welding Industry: Steel construction, pipeline, and installation manufacturing.

Shipbuilding and Heavy Equipment Manufacturing: Cutting of medium and large-scale metal parts.

Industrial Installations: Installation of heating, ventilation, natural gas, and water pipelines.

Material Properties and Structural Details

The superior performance of the disc is based on the Ceramic Alumina abrasive used and the reinforcement technology suitable for its thin structure:

Abrasive Material (Ceramic Alumina): Ceramic grains, which are longer-lasting, sharper, and thermally more stable than traditional zirconia or alumina oxide discs, are used. These grains self-sharpen (micro-fracturing), remaining sharp continuously and generating less heat during cutting.

Bonding System: A high-performance synthetic resin (Bakelite) bonding system that holds the abrasive grains together and prevents the disc from disintegrating at high speeds.

Reinforcement: To ensure safe operation at high peripheral speeds despite the disc being as thin as 1.4 mm, it is typically reinforced with specially formulated and dense fiberglass nets.

Maximum Speed: These discs are typically designed to operate safely at speeds of 8,500 revolutions per minute (RPM) or higher (Peripheral speed: 80 m/s).
