Cut-Off Wheels

When you need to cut through a thin or thick laminate or sandwich panel very quickly, these tools are the most effective when it comes to speed of cut and finish.

The diamond discs are well suited to thermoset composite materials and the 3M GreenCorps discs are highly effective over a wide range of materials.

The extracted tools are very effective at dust capture at source to make for a clean working environment.


If you would like to know how to use these tools most effectively, our course DMSC57 covers all you need to know.

DMP0130
75mm / 3” Cut-Off Wheel Kit

The direction of rotation of the disc throws dust up into the vacuum shroud providing effective dust capture at source when combined with a portable dust extractor.  Can be used for production and on-site cutting activities.

  • Quick and effective straight cutting of composites and curves (with side spoked disc)
  • 298W / 0.4hp air motor with dual wick lubrication system to extend life and minimise servicing
  • Variable speed up to 12,000 rpm
  • Lever control with safety lock
  • Easy to control right angle drive
  • Adjustable vacuum shroud / wheel guard
  • Removable non-marring composite base/guide
  • Maximum depth of cut 17mm / 11/16"
  • Supported vacuum swivel joint providing freedom of movement
  • Swivel airline joint and male hi-flow airline connector
  • 3” 3M Green Corps composite cutting discs (pack 5)
  • 3” diamond cutting disc (continuous, gulleted or side spoked)
  • Continuous rim, for straight and quiet cutting
  • or Gulleted, for straight high speed agressive cutting
  • or Side spoked, for cutting curves and thick laminates

  • Quick and effective straight cutting of composite materials
  • Effective with both thin and thick laminates and sandwich panels
  • Very effective when cutting through a mix of materials including carbon, glass, aramid, core, metal inserts etc.
  • 373W / 0.5hp air motor with gearless design to extend life and minimise servicing
  • Variable speed up to 20,000 rpm
  • Lever control with safety lock
  • Easy to control angled drive
  • Maximum depth of cut 17mm / 11/16"
  • Adjustable shroud
  • Can be configured for right and left handed use
  • Swivel airline joint and male hi-flow airline connector
  • 4” 3M Green Corps composite cutting discs (pack 5)
  • (Diamond cutting discs are available as special order)

cutting composte parts

DMP0146
125mm / 5” Cut-Off Wheel Kit

The direction of rotation of the disc throws dust up into the vacuum shroud providing effective dust capture at source when combined with a portable dust extractor.  Can be used for production and on-site cutting activities.

  • Quick and effective straight cutting of composites and curves (with side spoked disc)
  • 969W / 1.3hp air motor with dual wick lubrication system to extend life and minimise servicing
  • Variable speed up to 12,000 rpm
  • Lever control with safety lock
  • Easy to control right angle drive
  • Adjustable vacuum shroud / wheel guard
  • Removable non-marring composite base/guide
  • Maximum depth of cut 30mm / 1 3/16"
  • Supported vacuum swivel joint providing freedom of movement
  • 3/8" metal swivel airline joint and 3/8" male hi-flow airline connector
  • 5” diamond cutting disc (continuous, gulleted or side spoked)
  • Continuous rim, for straight and quiet cutting
  • or Gulleted, for straight high speed agressive cutting
  • or Side spoked, for cutting curves and thick laminates



To get the best performance from this cut off wheel, it is best used with 3/8" high flow connections with a 10mm/3/8" ID airline.
