Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Pick this softer-formulation wheel when cutting speed matters more than wheel life, such as production cuts in angle iron and rebar. Let the wheel do the work at rated speed rather than forcing it to avoid glazing and premature wear. Always match the wheel diameter, arbor, and rpm rating to your saw before mounting.

Always wear eye and face protection and use the wheel at or below its 4,300 rpm maximum speed with the saw’s guard in place.
