Fast Cut grinding discs have always been top-notch in terms of their technology, safety, and performance. Their high-quality abrasive grinding discs are known to be durable, efficient, and safe to operate because of a triple-reinforced system. In addition to that, Allinton offers various sizes of Fast Cut grinding discs in both steel and stainless steel in order to suit your specific needs.

How to Select the Right Grinding Disc for Your Needs?

Several factors must be considered when selecting the right grinding disc: 

• The material to be ground and its hardness play a key role, as different abrasives work better with specific materials. 
• Grit size and grade also influence the outcome, larger grit sizes are suited for rough grinding, while finer grits provide a smoother finish. 
• The required finish and stock removal determine the choice of bond and grit size, with harder bonds used for aggressive stock removal. 
• Additionally, determining whether the grinding will be wet or dry affects the grinding disc selection. 
• The area of contact and wheel speed must be considered to match the grinding disc’s characteristics for efficiency and safety. 
• Finally, the severity of the operation will guide you towards the right abrasive and grade, ensuring that the grinding disc performs as required under pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions about Grinding Discs

1. What is a grinding disc used for?

Grinding discs are mainly used for the removal of excess materials for stones and metals by way of angular grinding. Apart from that, you can also use grinding discs for resurfacing, retouching, repolishing, and finishing metal and stone machines. Allinton offers Fast Cut steel grinding discs which are suitable for grinding concrete, stone, marble, and non-ferrous metals, as well as Fast Cut stainless steel grinding discs which are optimal for all grades of steel and cast iron. 

2. How long does a grinding disc last?

Assuming that the grinding disc has been stored in an optimal environment, it can usually last up to 2 years with regular use and wear and tear. However, we at Allinton always value safety. That is why it is recommended to have discs that are over 2 years old be reinspected before use to detect any potential degradation or breakage. Allinton also offers recalibration and MOM retesting and other services to ensure your discs continue to perform safely and at a high standard of quality.

3. How do you test a grinding disc?

Always make sure to have your discs inspected and “ring tested” by a professional tester before they are mounted. This ensures that the disc does not have cracks or other defects that could be a safety risk or cause disruptions to your work process. Get in touch with us today to connect with our product specialists and get the latest essential information on your Fast Cut grinding discs. 

4. Can you cut metal with a grinding disc? 

Every type of angle grinder disc or attachment has its unique corresponding purpose. We do not recommend using grinding discs for cutting or vice versa.
