C U T - O F F W H E E L S The first step in metallographic sample preparation consists in sectioning a sample from a larger given piece to obtain a representative cross- section. Sectioning a material without causing structural changes defines the perfect cut. Abrasive cut-off wheels are made of abrasive particles bonded with a resin, a resin/rubber or a rubber matrix. They are designed to wear away, continuously exposing sharp new abrasive particles. A "Soft" wheel is used for cutting hard and brittle materials. It provides new surfaces of cutting abrasives more rapidly while the bond breaks down. The "Hard” wheel has a slower break down bond rate, which is suitable for soft and ductile materials. Adequate cooling is required to remove debris and avoid thermal damages to the sample. The careful combination of particle type, particle size and wheel hardness helps prevent burns and distortions, yet provide maximum useful life. Cutting requires a sufficient amount of pressure to be applied to the abrasive wheel while cutting, excessive pressure will cause the abrasive wheel to stall or break. Cut-off wheels with aluminum oxide as the abrasive are generally used for cutting ferrous samples, alloys and most other metals. Silicon carbide is recommended for non-ferrous and other non-metallic materials. 9" 10" 12" 14" APPLICATIONS (229mm) (254mm) (305mm) (355mm) PRODUCT NUMBERS HRC60+ Carburized Steel, Tool Steel. 110-9 110-10 110-12 110-14 HRC50-65 Hard Steel.
