DEWALT DW8725Z High-Performance Metal Cutting Wheel
The DEWALT DW8725Z High-Performance Cutting Wheel is designed for cutting metal with compatible angle grinders. Featuring a 6-inch diameter, thin 0.045-inch profile, and 7/8-inch arbor, this Type 1 abrasive cut-off wheel is engineered for efficient cutting in metalworking, fabrication, construction, and maintenance applications.
Its aluminum oxide abrasive construction uses DEWALT's Temper Point grain technology, designed to maintain sharp cutting edges throughout the wheel's service life. A concentrated abrasive grain arrangement supports aggressive cutting, while the thin wheel profile helps produce narrow cuts.
The wheel incorporates two layers of fiberglass reinforcement for added structural strength. It is designed for cutting a variety of metals, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys.
