The performance of an Angle grinder is not only determined by the machine itself, but also closely related to the selected accessories. Different cutting, grinding or polishing tasks require the matching of specific grinding wheels, cutting discs or accessories to ensure the best effect and tool life.
1. Types of grinding wheels and cutting discs
• Alumina grinding wheel: Universal type, suitable for grinding metals, removing rust and burrs, with high cost performance.
• Silicon carbide grinding wheels: Specifically designed for stone and ceramics, they feature high cutting efficiency but are relatively brittle, so caution is required during operation.
• Diamond cutting discs: They are used for hard materials such as tiles, concrete, and glass, featuring high cutting accuracy but relatively high prices.
• Double-coated cutting discs: Enhance durability, reduce fracture risk, and are suitable for heavy industrial applications.
2. Selection of particle size for accessories
• Coarse-grained (40-60 mesh) : Quickly removes material, suitable for initial grinding or cutting.
Medium particle size (80-120 mesh) : Balances efficiency and surface smoothness, used for fine finishing.
• Fine particle size (above 200 mesh) : Polished or mirror finish, suitable for high-demand surfaces.
3. Other practical accessories
Polishing pads and abrasives: Enhance the luster of metals or stones.
• Wire brush wheel: Remove welding spatter or stubborn rust.
• Adjustable Angle guide: Assists in precise cutting and reduces human errors.
Reasonable selection of accessories can not only improve work efficiency but also extend the service life of the Angle grinder.
