Diamond Cutting Disc Distar GALAXY 125 mm x 1.6 mm x 22.23 mm

Diamond cutting disc Distar GALAXY 125 mm x 1.6 mm x 22.23 mm is a thin, reinforced diamond blade designed for angle grinders. The 125 mm diameter and 1.6 mm cutting thickness provide narrow kerf performance for fast, precise cuts in hard materials. The segmented diamond rim and matrix formulation are optimized for cutting concrete, ceramic, tile and natural stone, offering high wear resistance and predictable cutting behavior for both professional tradespeople and competent DIY users.

Advantages

The Distar GALAXY disc delivers efficient cutting with a thin kerf that reduces material waste and lowers required motor load. Its diamond concentration and bonding balance durability with cutting speed, producing clean edges and minimizing chipping on brittle surfaces. The 22.23 mm bore fits common angle grinders through the use of appropriate flanges or adapters, enabling stable mounting and reduced vibration during operation.

Suitable for

• Cutting reinforced and unreinforced concrete for rough and finishing work
• Trimming and sizing ceramic tiles and porcelain
• Shaping natural stone and marble with thin, precise passes
• On-site cuts where fast removal and low dust generation are needed

When it may not be suitable

The GALAXY 1.6 mm thin cutting disc is not intended for heavy-duty demolition where wide, high-volume cutting is required or where the blade will be subjected to severe side loading. It is also not optimal for cutting metal or masonry that contains unknown hard inclusions without verifying the blade’s compatibility; using the disc on inappropriate materials can reduce service life and increase risk of damage.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 125 mm
• Cutting thickness (kerf): 1.6 mm
• Bore diameter: 22.23 mm
• Intended materials: concrete, ceramics, tiles, natural stone
• Disc type: diamond cutting disc for angle grinders

How to use

Mount the cutting disc on a compatible 125 mm angle grinder using the correct flange and checking that the bore and arbor match securely. Inspect the disc for damage before use. Secure the workpiece and maintain steady, even feed pressure; avoid forcing the disc through material to prevent overheating. Use appropriate cutting speed and allow the blade to do the work, withdrawing periodically to clear debris and cool the rim. Follow manufacturer safety instructions for guards, respirators, eye and hearing protection.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your angle grinder accepts a 125 mm diameter disc and 22.23 mm bore (or has an adapter)
• Match the disc’s intended materials to your application (concrete, tile, stone)
• Consider cutting thickness: 1.6 mm is optimized for thin, precise cuts rather than bulk removal
• Ensure you have appropriate personal protective equipment and dust control measures

Usage recommendations

Use steady, light-to-moderate feed rates and let the diamond rim work at its designed speed. For wet cutting, ensure your grinder and disc are rated for water use; for dry cutting, take frequent breaks to avoid overheating. Replace the disc if you notice excessive vibration, glazing, or loss of cutting performance.
