Slitter INOX-Prime Grinding Wheels

Weldcote introduces its new, high-quality Slitter INOX-Prime grinding wheels that offer excellent cutting speeds per cut with minimal burr and a smooth finish.

Weldcote Slitter wheels are available in 4-1/2-inch and 6-inch sizes with a standard 7/8-inch arbor hole. Designed for precise and quick cutting on high-quality steel, these thin abrasive wheels constructed of high-quality, mono-crystallized grain are manufactured in Germany using a patented manufacturing process. 

“Due to the world-class, patented German manufacturing process, these new slitter wheels that we offer are the highest quality, contaminate-free wheels on the market,” said Joe O’Mera, CEO of Weldcote. “Our Slitter wheels provide a precise and quick cut.”
