What is a disc cutter used for?
This specialist power tool is made from a solid abrasive disc and is used for cutting hard materials such as ceramic tile, metal, concrete, and stone. It offers precise cutting while reducing construction time and energy consumption.
Is an angle grinder the same as a disc cutter?
No, an angle grinder is used for rough cutting and grinding – essentially when precise grinding or cutting is not necessary. It is more versatile and has more uses than a disc cutter, which is a smaller cutting blade used for precision work.
There are four key uses for angle grinders:
- Cutting: make cuts in metal, ceramic, and masonry
- Grinding: smooth and remove excess materials,
- Polishing: ideal for creating a polished finish on materials
- Sanding: smooths the surface of metal and masonry
