6" x .045" x 7/8" Cutting Disc for Aluminum - 25 Pack

Product Description

6" Aluminum Cut Off Wheel — AO+SiC Blend, Type 1, 25 Pack

When you’re moving from small brackets to structural plate, wide sheet, or large-diameter tubing, a standard 4.5" disc forces too many repositions. The BHA 6" Aluminum Cut-Off Wheel is engineered for high-capacity production, offering a deeper reach and more surface area per stroke to finish long runs faster. Built with a specialized AO+SiC hybrid blend, this disc solves the primary challenge of 6" non-ferrous cutting: heat management. While standard wheels 'plow' and melt the metal into the abrasive, this wheel slices and self-cleans, keeping you moving through thick aluminum, copper, and brass without the disc glazing over.

What Makes This Disc Different

• Active Anti-Loading Tech: The combination of sharp Silicon Carbide (SiC) and tough Aluminum Oxide (AO) creates a self-cleaning cutting face. The SiC prevents the 'smearing' and welding of soft metal particles into the disc pores, while the AO provides the structural backbone needed for high-torque 6" grinders.
• Greater Reach, Fewer Passes. On wide sheet, plate, larger structural tubing, and thick-walled pipe, a smaller disc requires multiple passes to complete a cut. The 6" covers more in one stroke, which adds up over a full production run.
• MPA Tested, ANSI B7.1 and EN 12413 compliant. Built and third party tested to the same safety standards required for abrasives in industrial and production environments. Max RPM is marked on every disc.
• 25-pack for shops running non-ferrous cutting at volume. Per-disc cost at 25-pack quantity is built for regular production use, not one-off cuts. One fabrication shop in our reviews runs 200–300 of these per year.

Product Features

• Aluminum oxide / silicon carbide (AO+SiC) abrasive blend — the silicon carbide component fractures cleanly on aluminum and other soft metals, resisting the glazing and buildup that kills standard ferrous discs on these materials.
• .045" profile — same kerf width as the 4.5" version in this family. Thin enough to minimize heat buildup and burr on the cut edge, even on production-volume cuts.
• Fiberglass reinforced mesh backing — keeps the disc structurally stable under load at 10,200 RPM. Critical on a larger-diameter disc where flex and vibration increase.
• Max RPM: 10,200 — rated for 6" angle grinders. Fits DeWalt®, Makita®, Milwaukee®, Metabo®, Bosch®, and other 6" grinders with a standard 7/8" arbor.
• 25-disc pack — stocked for production shops and operations running regular non-ferrous cuts, not occasional single-disc jobs.

Materials Suitable for Cutting

Common Applications

Production and shop use:

• Repeat cuts on aluminum sheet, plate, and flat bar where disc repositioning slows production
• High-volume non-ferrous cutting where consistent cut quality disc-to-disc matters
• Fabrication shops and operations running aluminum or copper stock on a regular basis

Fabrication and metalworking:

• Wide aluminum sheet and plate cuts requiring full-width coverage in one pass
• Large-diameter aluminum tubing, structural members, and flat bar to length
• Copper and brass pipe and bus bar cuts for electrical and HVAC work
• Welding prep on non-ferrous stock — clean kerf reduces cleanup before the weld

Automotive and structural work:

• Aluminum flatbed modification and structural cuts
• Wide aluminum panel cuts where a smaller disc requires multiple strokes
