Why Choose Klingspor A 46 TZ Special?

Klingspor positions the A 46 TZ Special as a professional cutting wheel for:

Steel + Stainless Steel

with benefits including:

• Fast cutting

• Strong aggressiveness

• Long service life

• Suitability for demanding professional applications. (Klingspor)

The 1.6mm wheel thickness provides a little more body than an ultra-thin 1mm disc while still supporting fast cutting performance.

Aluminium Oxide Abrasive Grain

The A 46 TZ Special uses:

Aluminium Oxide

abrasive grain. (Klingspor)

Aluminium oxide is widely used for professional steel cutting because it provides reliable abrasive action across a broad range of metalworking applications.

Synthetic Resin, Fibre-Reinforced Bond

Klingspor specifies a:

Synthetic Resin, Fibre-Reinforced

bonding system. (Klingspor)

The reinforcement helps support the cutting wheel during high-speed use.

Cutting wheels should still always be inspected before installation and discarded if cracked, chipped or otherwise damaged.

125mm Diameter

Each cutting wheel measures:

125mm Diameter

making it suitable for compatible 125mm angle grinders operating within the wheel’s rated limits.

1.6mm Thickness

The wheel thickness is:

1.6mm

This provides a practical compromise between:

• Fast cutting

• Narrow kerf

• Wheel rigidity

• Durability

Compared with a 1mm ultra-thin wheel, the 1.6mm A 46 TZ offers more wheel body while remaining significantly thinner than conventional heavy cutting discs.

22.23mm Bore

The precise manufacturer bore specification is:

22.23mm. (Klingspor)

Commercial product titles may round this to:

22mm

or:

22.2mm

but 22.23mm is the more accurate Klingspor technical dimension.

Steel Applications

Klingspor rates the A 46 TZ Special for:

Steel. (Klingspor)

Typical applications include:

• Mild-steel sheet

• Pipe

• Profiles

• Fabricated steel

• Structural components

• General workshop repairs

Stainless Steel Applications

The A 46 TZ Special is also specifically suitable for:

Stainless Steel. (Klingspor)

Klingspor includes stainless-steel processing among the wheel’s principal professional applications.

Free of Iron, Sulphur and Chlorine

A key product benefit is that the A 46 TZ Special is:

Free of Iron, Sulphur and Chlorine. (Klingspor)

This is an important characteristic when selecting abrasives for stainless-steel fabrication.

Where stainless contamination control is critical, workshops should also maintain appropriate tool and abrasive segregation procedures.

Fast Cutting of Demanding Materials

Klingspor describes the A 46 TZ Special as a:

First choice for professional applications and fast cutting of demanding materials. (Klingspor)

This makes the wheel particularly well suited to fabrication and maintenance teams performing regular cutting work.

Plant Engineering Applications

Klingspor lists:

Plant Engineering

among the intended application areas for the A 46 TZ Special. (Klingspor)

Typical work can include cutting fabricated sections, pipework and components during installation, repair and maintenance.

Apparatus & Container Manufacturing

The manufacturer also identifies:

• Apparatus manufacturing

• Container manufacturing

as suitable application areas. (Klingspor)

These industries frequently involve steel and stainless-steel processing where accurate, fast cutting is required.

Metal Construction

The A 46 TZ Special is suitable for:

Metal Construction

including appropriate fabrication and structural work. (Klingspor)

Railing Construction

Klingspor also lists:

Railing Construction

among the product’s applications. (Klingspor)

This can include cutting stainless or steel tubing, profiles and fabricated sections.

Maximum 12,250 RPM

For catalogue number 187171, Klingspor specifies:

Maximum Speed: 12,250 RPM

and:

Maximum Peripheral Speed: 80m/s. (Klingspor)

Never operate the wheel above its rated maximum speed.

The grinder’s no-load speed must be compatible with the wheel before use.

Flat Form H

Catalogue number 187171 is supplied in:

Form H

which is the flat cutting-wheel configuration. (Klingspor)

The wheel is intended for cutting rather than side grinding.

Angle Grinder Compatibility

Before fitting the wheel to an angle grinder, confirm:

• 125mm grinder capacity

• 22.23mm bore compatibility

• Correct flange configuration

• Grinder speed

• Guard condition and placement

• Cutting-wheel condition

Use only according to Klingspor and power-tool manufacturer instructions.

• Noise

• Airborne particles

Appropriate PPE may include:

• Safety glasses or goggles

• Face protection

• Hearing protection

• Suitable gloves

• Protective clothing

• Safety footwear

• Respiratory protection where required

The cutting wheel should always be used with the grinder guard correctly fitted.

Cutting Wheel Inspection

Before use:

1. Inspect the wheel for cracks or damage.

2. Confirm the wheel dimensions match the grinder.

3. Verify the grinder does not exceed 12,250 RPM.

4. Confirm the correct flange arrangement.

5. Ensure the guard is fitted correctly.

6. Secure the workpiece where necessary.

7. Use the wheel only for its intended cutting application.

Never use a damaged abrasive wheel.

Storage & Handling

For best condition:

• Store cutting wheels in a clean, dry environment

• Protect them from moisture

• Avoid excessive heat

• Do not bend or crush the wheels

• Keep them appropriately packaged

• Inspect before installation
