The Sait 22235 Type 1 Cut-Off Wheel is a premium abrasive solution designed for fabrication shops that demand versatility and efficiency. Engineered by United Abrasives/SAIT, this 4-1/2 inch wheel features a specialized bond formulation that allows it to effectively cut through Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, and Aluminum without the need to change wheels between materials. This multi-application capability significantly reduces downtime in mixed-metal environments and streamlines inventory management for industrial MRO operations.
With a thickness of just .045 inches, this wheel falls into the category of high-performance thin cut-off wheels. The thin profile removes less material during the cut, resulting in faster cutting speeds and reduced friction. Less friction translates to lower heat generation, which is critical when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel to prevent discoloration or warping. The Type 1 flat profile is ideal for deep cutting applications where the wheel needs to penetrate the workpiece perpendicularly, offering maximum cutting depth compared to depressed center wheels.
Safety and durability are paramount in the design of the SAIT 22235. The wheel is reinforced with high-quality fiberglass mesh to withstand the stresses of high-speed rotation (up to 13,300 RPM) and lateral pressure. The 7/8-inch arbor ensures compatibility with the vast majority of standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders used in North American industry. Whether you are cutting pipe, angle iron, tubing, or flat stock, this wheel delivers consistent, aggressive cutting action that professionals trust.
