cut-off wheel

Metal slicing disc

A cut-off wheel is a thin, abrasive disc used with angle grinders or rotary tools to slice through metal, tile, or other hard materials.

The thinness allows for fast, precise cuts with minimal material loss.

Cut-off wheels wear down with use and eventually shatter, requiring replacement: I went through three cut-off wheels cutting that pipe.
