Makita 5 Pack - 4.5" Cut Off Wheels For 4.5" Grinders - Aggressive Cutting For Metal & Stainless Steel/INOX - 4-1/2" x .045" x 7/8-Inch

I refuse to remove the fuel tank or the bed in order to complete this task! So I took a measurement of the pump's location under the truck bed. Over it, I cut a 12"x12" hole that gave me perfect access to everything. (Trying various saws was a nightmare) These cutting wheels are ideal for the job and have no trouble cutting the metal bars 4- I cut out a plate at 17" and remounted it. Self-tapping screws with a Philips head were used. Then I siliconed a small gap (for the smoother tops). Everything went off without a hitch. Because the bars are too thick, the screws will snap off or strip out, I had to predrill all of the holes.

These cutoff wheels aren't the most affordable on the market. However, this isn't something you should buy solely on the basis of price; a thin, hard object spinning at high speed isn't something to be taken lightly. My research revealed that Makita blades have a good safety record, which has been confirmed by my experience with this blade thus far. I've cut a variety of thicknesses and even experienced some kickback (which was entirely my fault). Without a hitch, I twisted the blade. After a dozen cuts, I'm still on the first blade, which is still working well. Just keep an eye out. It's a very thin blade that's easy to bind. However, cutoff wheels are by their very nature.

Each one took under 90 seconds! I was blown away by the quality and efficiency of the cutting!.

65 stainless steel tubes (316), which aren't particularly thick but are extremely durable. I was debating whether or not to purchase an expensive manual tube cutter that had been recommended for the job, but I decided to give these a shot with my small grinder. Voila! It was incredibly simple to achieve a quick and precise cut. It sliced them up like a cheese grater. You have the ability to cut through anything, in my opinion. I've used it for over 20 pieces of metal and I'm still on blade number one.

With my particular project, I went through all five of my Mikita grinding wheels, which, if they were quality made, I shouldn't have done because they blew apart while in use and don't hold up worth a crap. I'm not going to buy any more of these. I was able to complete my project, but these particular wheels are not to my liking. I assumed that because they were Mikita brand, they would be of good quality, but I was mistaken.

My deck's kitsch metal decorations needed to be cut off. However, it will eventually wear down to the point where a new disc will be required. Face goggles, a hat, and something to cover your arms and feet are all recommended. Sparks will fly at you from all directions.

I'm not sure how long or how much cutting you can get out of a disk or when you should change them, but by the time I finished, I had gone through three. They could still be used if you wanted, but since they were cheap, I just put a new one in at the beginning of the day.

I've used a lot of cut wheels, and these are by far the best. They cut through metals faster than most others and do not wear out as quickly. They're also reasonably priced. There isn't a better deal out there, in my opinion. Thin, quick, and long-lasting. I strongly advise you to do so.
