Diamond-coated cutting disc Proxxon, Ø50 mm × 0.6 mm for LHW and LHW/A

Diamond-coated cutting disc Proxxon, Ø50 mm × 0.6 mm for LHW and LHW/A is a thin, precision cutting wheel designed for use with Proxxon LHW and LHW/A rotary tools. The disc combines a steel core with a diamond abrasive coating to deliver clean, accurate cuts on hard and brittle materials. Its 0.6 mm thickness reduces material loss and allows fine, controlled cutting for model making, hobby tasks, small repair jobs and detailed work on ceramics, stone, glass and hard metals.

Advantages

The diamond-coated surface ensures high abrasion resistance and consistent cutting performance over many small cuts. The thin 0.6 mm kerf minimises waste and improves control for precise cutting lines. Designed specifically for compatibility with LHW and LHW/A tools, the disc fits securely and runs true at recommended speeds, limiting vibration and improving finish quality. Its small 50 mm diameter gives access to tight spaces and detailed areas where larger discs cannot operate.

Suitable for

• Model making and scale hobby work
• Precision repairs on small components
• Cutting ceramics, glass and stone fragments
• Thin sectioning of hard metals and alloys
• Detail trimming in craft and restoration projects

Key specifications

• Diameter: 50 mm
• Thickness (kerf): 0.6 mm
• Abrasive: diamond-coated
• Core material: steel
• Designed for: rotary tools LHW and LHW/A
• Suitable for: hard, brittle materials (ceramics, glass, stone) and thin metal cutting

How to use

Mount the disc to the LHW or LHW/A tool according to the tool manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the disc is secured and the tool is unplugged or powered off during fitting. Use appropriate speed settings recommended for diamond-coated blades and apply light, steady pressure while cutting; avoid excessive side loading that may damage the disc. Let the abrasive do the work by guiding the tool along the cut line, and pause occasionally on longer cuts to avoid overheating the workpiece and disc.

Usage recommendations

Wear eye protection, dust mask and gloves when cutting; use adequate ventilation or local extraction for dust and particles. For best results on fragile materials, support the workpiece close to the cut and make multiple shallow passes rather than a single deep cut. Inspect the disc before each use for damage and replace if the diamond coating is worn or the disc shows cracks.
