Cutting Disc for Metal AWTools 230 x 22.2 x 2.0 mm AW40407

AWTools 230 x 22.2 x 2.0 mm cutting disc for metal is designed for abrasive cutting of steel and other ferrous materials. The 230 mm diameter and 22.2 mm bore fit standard angle grinders, while the 2.0 mm cutting thickness offers a balance between cutting speed and control. This disc is suitable for both professional workshops and DIY metalworking where straight, efficient cuts are required.

Advantages

The thin 2.0 mm profile reduces material loss and enables faster, more precise cuts compared with thicker discs. Its 230 mm diameter provides sufficient cutting depth for a wide range of metal sections, while the standard 22.2 mm bore ensures compatibility with most angle grinders. The abrasive composition is formulated for clean, consistent cutting performance on ferrous metals, minimizing the need for secondary finishing.

Suitable for

• Cutting mild and stainless steel sheets and profiles
• Severing rods, rebar and pipes
• Workshop metal fabrication and on-site repair work
• DIY metalworking and renovation projects

Key specifications

• Diameter: 230 mm
• Bore: 22.2 mm
• Thickness: 2.0 mm
• Material suitability: ferrous metals (steel, iron)
• Type: abrasive cutting disc for angle grinders

How to use

Mount the disc on an angle grinder with a 22.2 mm arbor, ensuring the guard is fitted and the wheel direction matches the rotation marking. Secure the disc with the appropriate flange and tighten according to the grinder manufacturer's instructions. Operate the tool at the recommended speed and apply steady, even pressure—avoid lateral force or twisting motions to reduce the risk of disc failure. Allow the disc to do the cutting instead of forcing it; lift the grinder briefly to cool the disc when performing extended cuts.

Usage recommendations

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection, gloves and a dust mask. Use the disc only for cutting ferrous metals and at the speed rating specified for the disc and the grinder. Inspect the disc before use for cracks or damage and replace if any defects are found. Store discs flat and in a dry environment away from extreme temperatures and humidity.
