Cutting Wheel NORTON Vulcan 300 x 3.0 x 32 mm A30S for Metal, pack 10+1

NORTON Vulcan 300 x 3.0 x 32 mm A30S cutting wheel is a bonded abrasive disc engineered for cutting metal. Supplied as a pack of 10 discs plus 1 free, this wheel is intended for use with angle grinders that accept a 32 mm bore. The A30S grit formulation balances cutting speed and wheel life for steel and non‑ferrous metals commonly encountered in metalworking, fabrication, and repair tasks.

Advantages

The thin 3.0 mm thickness ensures fast, accurate cuts with minimal material loss and reduced heat build‑up compared with thicker cutting wheels. The bonded abrasive construction provides consistent performance and predictable wear throughout the life of the disc. A30S grit offers a compromise between aggressive cutting and durability, suitable for a range of metals. Supplied in a pack with an extra disc increases value and reduces the need for frequent repurchase.

Suitable for

• Cutting mild and stainless steel plate, bars and profiles
• Cutting non‑ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper
• Metal fabrication and sheet metal work in workshops and construction sites
• Repair and maintenance tasks that require fast through‑cutting

When it may not be suitable

This cutting wheel is designed specifically for metal cutting and thin‑section work; it is not suitable for grinding, smoothing, or shaping surfaces. It may wear faster or perform poorly on very hard alloys or tool steels that require specialized abrasives. Users should avoid using the disc on materials not recommended by the manufacturer and should not use it with machines that exceed the wheel's rated speed.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 300 mm
• Thickness: 3.0 mm
• Bore (arbor) size: 32 mm
• Abrasive grade: A30S
• Intended material: metal (steel and non‑ferrous metals)
• Pack contents: 10 discs + 1 free disc

How to use

Fit the cutting wheel securely to an angle grinder with a matching 32 mm arbor, ensuring the grinder is unplugged or the battery removed during installation. Verify the wheel is rated for the grinder's maximum speed and tighten the flange according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Use appropriate guards, hold the tool firmly, and perform straight, steady cuts without excessive lateral force. Allow the wheel to cut at its own rate to avoid overheating, and replace the disc when wear makes cutting inefficient or unsafe.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your angle grinder accepts a 300 mm disc and 32 mm bore
• Check the maximum safe RPM of your grinder against the wheel's rated speed
• Consider the types of metal you will cut and whether A30S abrasive is appropriate
• Ensure you have suitable personal protective equipment (eye, face, hearing, and hand protection)

Usage recommendations

For best results, secure the workpiece, use steady feed pressure, and allow the wheel to cool between prolonged cuts. Replace discs that show cracking, excessive wear, or wobble, and follow all safety guidelines for cutting disks and power tools.
