Benchmark Abrasives 5 Aluminum Oxide Quality Thin Cut Off Wheel for Metal and Stainless Steel 0.045 Thick 7/8 Arbor, Angle Grinder Wheel, Fast Burr-Free Cutting Wheel - 50 Pack

For 50 of these 5 metal cutoff wheels at my local hardware store, Id be paying nearly $250! Im not sure how these are so inexpensive, but I just received them and the quality appears to be identical to the ones I normally buy. I will update my review after some actual use in the field, but I have no reason to expect them to perform any differently than the ones Ive been using. As typical with every brand of cutoff wheel Ive used in the past, the actual thickness is greater than advertised, but not too far off. These are advertised as 0.045 and the actual thickness is 0.0560 (1.42mm)--see my photos. The other brand I was using before this that also advertised 0.045 but measured over 0.060. EDIT: After using these in the field now, Ive had absolutely no issues. They work just as well as the ones I was paying much more for.

I’ve been in the welding industry for over 20 years and I’ve used a lot of different cut off wheels. These performed just as good if not better than all of the name brand for 10 times the price. I will definitely be buying more in the future.

I use these all the time! They work great!

Hands down the fastest cutting longest lasting cut off blades I have ever used. I have worked with steel for over 30 years and used everything from cheap harbor freight to high end that cost a ton... They pale in comparison. I cut a 6x6 3/16 wall tube into 6 pieces including angle cuts... Using 1 blade. I finished the project with the second.

I bought a 50 pack of these two years ago, and Im buying them again now that Im out. Theyre great! Thanks Amazon for keeping track so I could buy them again.

Good cutting ability, good durability, GREAT value. At roughly $40 for a 50-pack, thats about $0.80 a wheel. Beats the hell out of paying $2-$4 (sometimes more) from the hardware store.

Cut fast, last a long time

Was exactly as expected works great.

For the price, these are fantastic. Might not last as long as some of the big brand names but if not, its close enough to save that much $!

I run my own welding and fabrication business and these cut off wheels have proven themselves to me out in the field and in the shop. These wheels have out lasted and performed better than many competitors brands. I would highly recommend these cut off wheels and i will be buying them again!
