Extra-thin cutting disc offering a long lifetime and excellent price-performance ratio.

• Little bur formation
• High cutting speed
• Fewer sparks

Machine suitability:
The XTK38 cutting disc is suitable for freehand use with all angle grinders in any performance class (including low-power and battery-powered machines).

Material suitability:
The XTK38 has been specially designed for use on stainless steel (SST, Inox), e.g. 1.4031 (X5CrNi18-10 or 304), steel (carbon steel – also termed structural steel, St37, S235JR and 1.0037) and cast steels.

Structure and production:
The cutting disc contains high-quality corundum (aluminium oxide) and 2 full-coverage glass cloth layers. The minimum side load for the cutting disc as defined by EN 12413 and oSa is 40 N (50 N from a diameter of 150 mm). The expiry date (three years) is embossed in the disc hole ring. Consistently high quality is ensured by sophisticated in-process controls applied during manufacturing. To ensure a maximum level of safety, every thousandth disc is tested destructively. This disc features a straight shape (shape 42). The cutting disc is especially stable during cutting.

Quality:
To help make work even more cost-effective (cost per cut), RHODIUS cutting discs with CERAMICON technology are recommended.

Applications:
The XTK38 offers an impressively long lifetime (tool life) during use, even in solid material, combined with a very aggressive, light and fast cut. Precise work when processing thin-walled material is also easy to achieve. The disc features minimal sparking, low dust generation and very smooth, vibration-free operation. All of which makes work easier and is especially cost-effective. The XT38 offers users an optimum price/performance ratio. The disc achieves low angular deviation thanks to its depressed shape. This quality RHODIUS tool is an especially good choice for cutting structural steel, tool steel, spring steels, thin-walled metal sheets, rustproof and acid-proofed steels, high-alloy steel, high-strength sheet metal, cable ducts, supports and sections.

Dimensions:
The extra-thin cutting disc with a disc width of 1.0 mm to 1.9 mm is available in diameters from 115 mm to 230 mm.

Industries:
This makes it the ideal tool for the many applications and challenges in plant and container construction, boiler and tank construction, structural steel engineering, pipeline construction, plumbing and installation work.

Notice:
The RHODIUS cutting discs for stainless steel are iron- and sulphur-free. To avoid rusting, you should never change from normal steel back to stainless steel with the same disc.
