The 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cut-Off Wheel features 3M™ Precision-Shaped
Ceramic Grain to bring you an exceptionally fast-cutting and
long-lasting wheel for use on almost all materials, including
stainless steel, mild steel, and aerospace alloys. This cut-off
wheel surpasses 3M™ High Performance wheels in both cut and life
to deliver significant gains in productivity. Experience the
power of 3M precision-shaped grain to provide a cool,
extra-sharp, quick cut long after other wheels are consumed.
Using Type 1 Cut-Off Wheels
Type 1 wheels have a flat center and must be run on a cut-off
wheel power tool designed specifically for the size of wheel
used. For safety, cut-off wheels must be used with ANSI-approved
flanges for Type 1 cut-off wheels and must always be used with a
wheel guard that is compatible with the size of the wheel. The
cut-off wheel must have a maximum operating speed greater than or
equal to the maximum speed of the power tool used.
Unlike coated abrasive discs, which shape or sand objects using
the disc surface, cut-off wheels provide perpendicular cuts,
using the outer edge of the wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are
typically used for cutting through metal, for example autobody or
marine sheet metal, stainless steel tubing, exhaust pipes,
clamps, and rusted fasteners. Cut-off wheels are attached to a
cut-off wheel tool (sold separately) and must always be used with
a wheel guard for safety.
Experience the Powerful Performance of 3M™ Cubitron™ II
3M Cubitron II products have raised the bar for high-performing
abrasives. 3M precision-shaped ceramic grain (PSG) outcuts and
outlasts conventional ceramic industrial abrasives and requires
less grinding force to achieve superior performance. The result
is that operators can grind faster and complete more parts per
disc with less muscle-work and igue.
To create PSG, 3M engineers started with 3M ceramic abrasive
grain and used proprietary technology to form the grains into
triangular structures and electrostatically orient them on the
backing to form sharp peaks that maximize cutting potential.
These peaks slice cleanly through metal like a through
butter, rather than gouging or plowing as traditional abrasives
do, and continuously self-sharpen as the points break off. This
generates a super-fast cut and lessens heat build-up due to
friction, reducing heat-related stress cracks and discoloration.
PSG also wears evenly, and because the abrasive itself stays
cooler and sharper, Cubitron II products last significantly
longer than their conventional ceramic counterparts, ensuring
extended high performance in production applications.
