Aluminum Oxide, Slitter-Style Cutting Wheels



Designed for applications using high-power, right-angle grinding machines, Weldcote's A-PRIME PLUS cutting wheels are manufactured of aluminum oxide using a granulation process technology designed to provide higher performance and extended life.

The complex, multi-step granulation process allows for even distribution of the wheel's abrasive grains because each abrasive grain is coated with resins and fillers. The resulting homogenous distribution of the abrasive grain, along with a patented chemical additive, enhances the wheel's performance and delays its natural aging process.

"The unique granulation process technology from Germany creates an exceptionally high-performing wheel that provides a consistent, high-quality finish," said Joe O'Mera, CEO of Weldcote. "Users of this A-PRIME PLUS cutting wheel will notice that the wheels last longer and do not stall out as standard wheels often do."

Available in Type 1 and Type 27, Weldcote's A-PRIME PLUS cutting wheels are available in 4-1/2", 5" and 6" sizes with a grit of 46. The A-PRIME PLUS cutting wheels offer low burring and reduced sparks and are suitable for low-power grinding machines.
