METAL CUTTING DISC 100MM E-03028 MAKITA

Specifications: diameter 100 mm; bore 16 mm; thickness 1.6 mm; maximum operating speed (RPM) around 13,300; abrasive type is resin-bonded aluminum oxide. These specs ensure compatibility with common 100 mm grinders and provide effective metal cutting performance.

Best results are achieved on ferrous metals such as mild and structural steel, iron, and similar alloys. It’s not intended for non-metal materials like wood or masonry, and cutting on non-ferrous metals may require a different disc.

First unplug or remove the battery from the grinder. Remove the old disc, inspect for cracks, and ensure the guard is in place. Align the disc with the spindle, slide on the outer nut, and tighten securely using the correct tool. Always center the disc and never force it during installation.

Wear safety glasses or a face shield, hearing protection, cut-resistant gloves, and long-sleeve clothing. Use the grinder’s guard, keep bystanders away, and avoid loose clothing or jewelry that could get caught in the wheel.

Operate at or below the disc’s maximum RPM, use steady feeding without forcing the tool, allow cooling breaks to prevent overheating, inspect for cracks before each use, and replace the disc if any cracks, warping, or glazing appear.

Makita is renowned for durability and consistent performance. For alternatives on Fepy, you might compare with Bosch or DeWalt 100 mm discs, which typically offer similar size and speed ratings but may differ in price or glaze resistance.

Typical uses include cutting structural steel in fabrication shops, trimming steel channels or angle irons in construction, and cutting pipes or metal sheets in maintenance and repair tasks.

Store in a dry, clean area away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep discs in their original packaging or a protective case, and avoid dropping or stacking heavy objects on top of them to prevent cracks.

If you’re not satisfied, you can refer to Fepy’s standard return policy for unopened or unused items within the stated return window. Check the product page for any specific return conditions and ensure the disc is in resalable condition with packaging intact.

Yes. Always use the correct 16 mm arbor, ensure the protective guard is in place, and avoid side loads or misalignment. Verify the disc is free of cracks before use, and do not overtighten the mounting nut. Use a non-wobbling, secure clamping setup to prevent runout.

Consider max RPM rating, disc thickness, and bore size to match your grinder. Assess the metal type you’re cutting (mild steel vs. stainless steel), desired cut speed vs. disc life, and budget. Look for brand reliability (Makita here), availability of compatible accessories, and user reviews on Fepy for real-world performance.
